11:11 Locket

You know how time stops, sometimes, when you’re in love? This watch-styled, crystal-encircled locket is permanently “set” at 11:11. That’s a time when some say that spirits visit and all our secret wishes are heard. Inside, this locket is engraved with the word “timeless” (opposite the indentation where you can add your own photo) and, on the back, with the phrase: “if only time stood still”. Yet for all that sweet sentiment, jewelry maker Ariana Ost’s asymmetric approach gives this piece a sense of humor, as though it was smiling back at us from an earlier time. Made in New York City.
