“Jewelry’s greatest value comes not from intrinsic materials or brilliant designs but from the emotions we invest.”
~Madeleine Albright, from “Read My Pins”
Passion
Luck and Lockets is the dream business of founder Yvonne, who practiced law in NYC for many years, but whose heart was devoted to antique jewelry and the thrill of the hunt. In 2018, she made her passion her profession and has not looked back! Often traveling the world, Yvonne personally selects each jewel for the shop — always seeking out unconventional beauties, intriguing back stories, and bygone craftsmanship.
Expression
We curate our collection to be worn daily and loved, not to languish in a box. Jewelry is about self-expression, so we believe in and encourage experimentation and individuality. We search for jewelry that pleases the eye, feels great on the body, piques curiosity, and rouses emotions. We offer you only what we love and would be proud to add to our own personal collection. Together, let’s rediscover old world jewels and continue their life stories!
Creation
We create original pieces inspired by the antique, designed for how we wear jewelry today. Our Molten Monogram pendant emulates the look of antique wax seals. Our Guiding Star medallion pays homage to a beloved Georgian chain motif. We’re especially proud of our signature Lucky 8 clasp and charm holder — inspired by Chinese numerology, the age-old ouroboros, and the infinity symbol. All work is done by skilled independent artisans.
