My most ambitious wire project to date! Made completely from wire - no solder or glue, this beautiful wire wrapped locket is hinged and can be opened to store a photo or precious trinket.

It took me a long while to figure out the hinge and lock mechanism, and it was very fiddly having to do it all in wire. Still, I'm glad I stuck with it - it's absolutely gorgeous.

I'm thinking of refining the process for this, and making a tutorial. Thoughts?
