What to Expect
How it Works
How it Works
Ordering your personalized symbol charm is simple, whether you’re adding it to Locked in Art jewelry or purchasing the charm on its own.
1. Choose How You’d Like Your Charm
Select either Charm Only or Attach to Jewelry in This Order.
2. Choose Your Symbol
Select from one of our available symbols or request a simple custom symbol. Because this charm is very small, bold, uncomplicated designs work best.
3. Choose the Finish
If you’re ordering the charm on its own, select your preferred silver finish. If we’re attaching it to jewelry in the same order, choose Match the Jewelry in This Order and we’ll coordinate the finish for you.
4. We Engrave Your Charm
Each charm is individually engraved and finished in our Arizona studio. Custom symbol requests are reviewed before engraving, and we’ll contact you if a design needs to be simplified for this petite charm.
5. We Ship It Your Way
Standalone charms will arrive unattached and ready to add to compatible jewelry. If you’re purchasing compatible Locked in Art jewelry in the same order, we’ll attach the charm before your finished piece ships.

Polished vs Antiqued Finishes
Polished vs Antiqued Finishes
Our polished finish is bright, reflective, and clean, with darkened engraving for contrast.
Our antiqued finish has a softer brushed patina, also with darkened engraving, for a more vintage-inspired appearance.
Because each piece is handmade and finished individually, slight variations in texture and patina are normal and part of what makes every memorial unique.
