This gold heart locket offers two ways to keep a memory close: an engraved image on the outside and a photograph held inside. The exterior design can come from a treasured picture or original artwork, giving the locket meaning before it is even opened.

The 12 x 13mm locket suits a clear, simple engraving. Exterior photo engraving and printed photographs for the inside are separate options; photo printing and fitting can be selected if required.

Ideas for your personal engraving

• Photos: Choose a close crop of one face or a single detail that matters to you. The small engraving area cannot show the same detail as the original photograph, so an uncluttered image is best.
• Handwriting: A few characters, a short word or a small signature can preserve someone’s own writing. Send a clear photograph or scan of the original rather than retyping the words.
• Drawings: A little heart, a simple doodle or a bold outline can work well at this scale. Choose the most recognisable part of a drawing rather than a page filled with detail.
• Pet portraits: A clear close-up of your pet’s face is the most useful starting point. A larger piece will be more suitable if you want to keep detailed fur markings or a full portrait.
• Nose prints: The pattern can be taken from a clear close-up or an existing nose print. At this size only a small amount of texture will remain visible, so a selected detail may be more effective.
• Paw prints: A simple paw print outline can remain recognisable even on a small keepsake. Supply a clear image of the whole print, with the pads separated from the background.
• Handprints and footprints: A small handprint or footprint can also provide the outline for your engraving. The image is reduced to fit; it will not retain the original print’s size or every fine detail.
