{"product_id":"victorian-masonic-locket-pendant","title":"Victorian Masonic Locket Pendant","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis intriguing late 19th-century locket pendant, crafted from 9K gold, takes the form of a small book, opening horizontally to reveal a hidden compartment. The front of the locket is intricately engraved with swirling motifs, framing two Masonic symbols: a blue enamelled bell and a compass with square, traditional symbols of the Freemasons. The compass represents moral compass, and the square symbolises virtue, core tenets of Freemasonry. This type of locket was likely worn by a Freemason, symbolising their connection to the fraternity and its principles of brotherhood, integrity, and enlightenment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eInside, a glass pane holds a lock of hair, a memento of a loved one.
