The term locket refers to a pendant or medallion that opens to reveal two halves called wings. Some lockets feature small frames and glass or plastic panels behind which many people place photographs. Others are used to store keepsakes such as a lock of hair belonging to a loved one. Lockets are most often worn on a chain around the neck, but can also be part of a key chain or bracelet.
