To preserve the beauty and integrity of your vintage locket, please follow these care guidelines:

Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your locket away from household cleaners, chlorine, and perfumes, as these can damage the gold and any interior materials.

Gentle Cleaning: Clean occasionally with warm water, a few drops of mild dish soap, and a soft cloth. Gently pat dry with a lint-free cloth—do not scrub.

Storage: Store your locket in a soft pouch or jewelry box separate from other pieces to prevent scratching.

Handle with Care: Given its vintage nature, avoid dropping or bending the locket. Open and close it gently to maintain the hinge’s integrity.

Wear Mindfully: Remove the locket during strenuous activity, swimming, or showering to protect it from damage and moisture.

Professional Check: For heirloom-quality pieces like this, consider having it professionally inspected every few years to ensure the clasp and hinge remain secure.

With proper care, your locket will continue to age gracefully and be cherished for generations to come.
