Very nice find you made. Was there any name on the locket that might lead to the owner?

There was no name on it and I even opened it up without causing any damage and it was empty inside. Don't have any clue who it belonged to but this is old property that has been lived on for many years. Oh well, guess it will just have to stay with me now.

That is a very nice find! I bet it was very special to someone years ago! That is something that would be neat to find the owner and see the look on their face when you returned it, if you could!
