We often see this kind of jewelry worn by our elders: our grandmas, grandpas, and even our aunts and we often wonder what this small piece of jewelry is all about.

As there are different shapes and sizes of lockets various metals and alloys are present too. One common material is the silver alloy, which originated from continental Europe in the 12th century.
Today, sterling silver alloy is used because pure silver is too soft and can’t produce sturdy lockets. When combined with other metals like copper, the synthesized silver becomes a tougher material that can stand up to wear and tear.
While pure silver can be combined with many different types of metals, sterling silver can only be achieved by combining pure silver with copper. Sterling silver jewelry can be composed using different amounts of copper, but the standard is .925 stamp, meaning the jewelry product possess 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper.
When you decide to buy one of Gracious Rose’s silver lockets, it is important to know how to take care of it. Here are some safety handling tips to ensure that your silver lockets stay shiny and brilliant all the time:
Silver should not come into contact with harsh household chemicals such as bleach, ammonia, or chlorine (pool water)
To avoid scratches, store silver in a lined jewelry box or pouch, as it is prone to tarnish due to naturally reacting with hydrogen sulfide in the air
Cleaning and wearing silver jewelry regularly will prevent this and help maintain its shine
Upon noticing any discoloration, use a gentle polish made specifically for removing tarnish

For timeless elegance and beauty, gold lockets are better choices.
When deciding on what type of gold locket to choose, it is important to understand that the color of the gold may vary based on the kind of metal mixed in the gold and the overall ratio of the gold to the alloy used:
Yellow Gold—the most common color and is usually alloyed with silver and copper. Yellow and white gold are similar in strength and malleability, making them perfect for daily wear.
White Gold—alloyed with nickel, copper, and zinc--and while it looks similar to platinum, it has vastly different properties.
Rose-colored Gold—alloyed with copper and is often used to accent white or yellow gold. The saturation of color varies from piece to piece and according to gold content.
Avoid contact with harsh chemicals and do not wear your gold locket during rough work because all gold jewelry is prone to scratching. To clean gold jewelry, use warm water, mild soap, and a soft bristled brush.
