ABSTRACT:
A locket assembly utilizes a locket body and a hingeable cover thereto having a disengageable clasp member to secure the cover to the body in a closed position. The locket face may be solid or have a transparent portion so as to permit viewing of an indicia-bearing sheet disposed within the locket. A portion of the locket extends outwardly of the outermost surface of the body and is provided with a threaded hole for engaging a coupling element adapted to couple to other locket bodies in a string-like fashion. Each locket is provided with a plate hingeably secured to the rearmost surface of the locket and having a spring causing the plate to pivot in an outward position relative to the rearmost surface of the locket. A spring bias clasp is adapted to maintain the plate in a position parallel to the rear surface of the locket whereby a fabric-like tape may be clasped therein between providing support for the locket so as to permit a number of such lockets to be strung up into a necklace, each supported by the tape.
