For over four decades, Elizabeth Locke has been the preeminent voice in the Neo-Classical jewelry movement, handcrafting 19K gold pieces that serve as a modern bridge to antiquity. Inspired by the "Grand Tour" traditions of the 17th century, Elizabeth Locke designs are defined by a passion for historical artifacts, specifically Etruscan, Greek, and Roman aesthetics. Every piece in our curated collection is meticulously handmade by master goldsmiths, ensuring that each Elizabeth Locke link necklace, bracelet, and earring is an individual work of art. By merging 19th-century sensibilities with her signature hand-hammered 19K gold, Locke has created a highly collectible brand that is as much an investment in art as it is in fine jewelry.

  • Signature 19K Yellow Gold

    Elizabeth Locke exclusively utilizes 19K yellow gold, a proprietary alloy with a higher purity than standard 18K. This provides the jewelry with a deeper, more vibrant "ancient" glow and a buttery texture that is the hallmark of the brand.

  • Venetian Glass Intaglios & Bees

    These "jewels of the glass" are handmade in Italy using 17th-century molds. Often featuring the iconic Elizabeth Locke Bee, Pegasus, or Lion motifs, each intaglio is backed with shimmering mother-of-pearl to create a three-dimensional, luminous effect.

  • Authentic Ancient Coin Jewelry

    A centerpiece of the collection, Locke incorporates authentic Greek and Roman coins into ornate 19K gold settings. These pieces allow collectors to wear a literal piece of history, framed by the designer’s signature neo-classical gold work.

  • Cabochon Gemstones & Puffy Stones

    The collection is celebrated for its use of vibrant, cabochon-cut gemstones—including moonstone, turquoise, peridot, and sapphire. These "puffy" stones are selected for their saturation and clarity, enhancing the antique-inspired brilliance of each setting.

  • The Modular Earring Pendant System

    Designed for the versatile collector, Elizabeth Locke's modular earrings feature a signature "hoop and charm" system. This allows you to effortlessly swap earring pendants and intaglio drops, transforming a daytime look into an evening statement.
