Stuart Crystal memorial lockets were popular in the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly during the Stuart period in England. These lockets were crafted from rock crystal, often with gold or silver mounts, and were used to hold small mementos such as locks of hair, miniature portraits, or other sentimental items in memory of a loved one who had passed away. The crystal was sometimes engraved or faceted to enhance its beauty and symbolic significance. Stuart Crystal memorial lockets were cherished as keepsakes and symbols of remembrance, reflecting the prevailing attitudes towards mourning and memorialization during that time.
