 four leaf locket February 28, 2008
Very nice locket perfect gift for my girlfriend. Very small locket just what i wanted. The only difficluty you will have is trimming the tiny pictures to fit inside of the locket.
Ok for the price January 24, 2008

I bought this for my girlfriend because she wanted a locket. It is extremely small, and basically a persons head cut out of a wallet sized picture MIGHT fit in it. But she loves it. I've been told that it closes tight enough so that water doesn't get into it if you forget to take it off, and it does look nice.
The chain is very weak, broke the first day. We just went and bought a cheap chain (you can get chains for like $3 at superstores), so it really wasn't a big deal.

I loved this piece until the clover face came unglued. Now it's a locket with a bunch of glue on the face. Sigh.

This is a gorgeous locket. I'm very much in love with it, and knew that I would be the moment I saw it on Amazon. It is absolutely beautiful and (though my pictures do not do it justice) it actually looks almost exactly like the Amazon photo (something I cannot say for any other online jewelry I've bought - no matter how lovely the piece, the picture is always better). As much as I love it, though, there are several points worthy of note that I should caution the buyer about.
Size: This locket is very small. I've included some pictures to show the relative size compared to an American quarter, and compared to the wallet sized photo I used in the locket. My boyfriend and I had our portrait taken for Christmas. I was able to fit my face in one side of the locket, and his in the other, but note that only the facial skin fit - the surrounding hair had to be cut out completely. Note also that since our portrait had both of us in it, our faces were smaller than a portrait with only one person - I don't believe a normal wallet portrait face would fit this locket.
Chain: The chain that comes with this locket is incredibly light and fine. It seems more a silver thread than a chain, which would be lovely except that it keeps getting tangled up in itself. I've had to undo massive tangles three times already, and that's with the best care I can give it. I will be replacing the chain VERY soon. Fortunately, the bail is normal sized and will allow this, but it's annoying.
Fitting: There is no 'guide' included to cut your pictures to. I was forced to place the backs of several pens in the locket until I found one that fit. I then traced around the bottom of the pen to mark where to cut on the pictures. (I used a Precise Rollerball pen, if anyone is curious.) There is also no mechanism to hold the picture in place, so I fell back on a dab of reliable superglue. It wasn't a big deal, and it came out okay, but I was worried I'd ruin my $25 necklace... and of course, I'd better not break up with my boyfriend now, or I'll have to buy a new one. ;)
I really love this locket. It's cute, and the green clover is so vibrant and perfect. The faces look good inside it - even if they are without hair and a bit ragged around the edges (perfect circles are hard to cut that tiny!). And the chain will replace easily soon enough. Definitely consider buying this gorgeous piece, just be aware that there are some obstacles to clamber over.
I have uploaded several pictures to illustrate my point. I hope they will be helpful.

not worth the money spent, cheap chain, will be removing and replacing it with a more attractive and sturdier chain
