Choosing Photo Locket Space and Chain Configuration
We are a jewelry factory in Qingdao, China. For a photo-locket line, choose the opening design and usable image space before planning the personalized presentation. We recommend a heart pendant when the shape leads the gift, a month-themed necklace when the date association matters, or a floral locket when the exterior print is central.
Our heart range separates Gold Pendant, Gold Wave chain and Gold OT Chain choices. The month-themed and floral ranges have 18-inch expressions. These are distinct configurations; the image inside, the chain and the pendant should each have a clear place in the buying decision.

Compare Three Real Locket Routes
The heart picture locket describes stainless steel and three separate Gold part names. The month-themed range has twelve actual names, including January Aquarius, at 18 inches. The floral copper-alloy range has Gold 1–12 at 18 inches with printed-enamel and elliptical directions.
Choose the heart for a clear symbol and a component-led assembly, month-themed for a calendar-oriented offer, or floral for an exterior pattern choice. Keep each complete option name. One selection is not an assumed pendant-and-two-chain bundle, and twelve floral numbers do not establish twelve identical internal photo spaces.

Separate Outer Shape from Usable Photo Area
The exterior heart or oval outline does not supply the usable image dimensions. The hinge, inner rim, retaining feature and closure can reduce the visible or insertable area. Record the actual opening shape and the area available for the photograph rather than scaling it from the outside silhouette.
Use a selected-sample measurement or an agreed template for the photo plan. Keep insert size and visible window separate if the construction has both. A correctly sized outer print can still place an important face under the rim, so the image composition belongs with the physical area.

Choose the Heart Parts as Individual Selections
Gold Pendant, Gold Wave chain and Gold OT Chain are actual alternatives in the heart range. Choose the intended parts and define the supplied complete necklace rather than assuming one option contains all three. The selected chain name also does not provide a numeric chain length.
For a DIY retail idea, decide whether the customer receives a pendant, an assembled necklace or separately specified components. Keep the pendant passage and chain fitting compatible for that plan. A photo-locket concept is more useful when the necklace assembly is clear before the image service is discussed.

Compose the Image for the Actual Opening
A heart or oval opening may crop an image differently from a rectangle. Place the important subject within the visible area and leave room around the edge for the selected rim or retaining arrangement. Do not stretch a face merely to fill the outline; choose an appropriate crop and review it at the intended small scale.
For a two-person photograph, check that both subjects remain readable within the actual opening. A busy background can compete with the subject in a small locket. These are image-layout choices for your project, not a promise that printing, cropping or insertion is included in the jewelry supply.
Compose the Image for the Actual Opening
- CropFit the actual heart/oval opening · Do not infer from exterior dimensions
- Subject placementKeep key content within visible area · Allow for rim or retainer
- Image proportionsCrop rather than distort · Preserve the subject
- Small-scale reviewInspect intended finished size · Not only a large screen preview

Choose Month or Floral Variants for Their Real Role
The month-themed necklace offers January Aquarius and February through December as its actual names. Keep the full selected label and pictured decoration. A month association does not identify a gemstone species or define the photo service.
The floral range offers twelve numbered Gold patterns with copper-alloy and gold-plated direction. Choose it when the exterior print is part of the gift's appeal. Keep its photo space and opening specific to the selected version rather than assuming every numbered pendant has the same cavity or hardware.
Choose Month or Floral Variants for Their Real Role
- Month-themedActual month/design name · Natural birthstone or printing method
- FloralGold 1–12 pictured print · One shared internal measurement
- Heart component rangeActual selected parts · Complete bundle from one option
- Coordinated gift lineSpecified finished units · Contents from campaign imagery

Review Opening and Photo Retention Together
The selected locket should be examined open and closed. Identify how the photo sits, how it is retained and how the closure operates with the intended insert. A decorative front image cannot show whether the planned photo thickness or retaining layer will fit.
For a customer-replaceable concept, review the replacement route as part of the product idea. For a prepared keepsake, define the supplied insert arrangement separately. We do not assume a particular adhesive, cover, hinge or waterproof seal from the locket name. The useful purchase is the actual selected construction with a workable image plan.

Keep Photo Service Separate from Jewelry Supply
A product described as Photo, Picture or Personalized identifies a useful design/service direction, but it does not specify who prepares the image or what method is used. Choose the required outcome: empty locket, customer-inserted photo or a separately agreed prepared-photo arrangement.
Keep the image file, approved crop and selected locket version connected if photo work is part of the project. Use only images you can authorize for that purpose, and share only the content needed for the agreed work. The scope should state the result without inventing an automatic print-on-demand or uploading system.
Keep Photo Service Separate from Jewelry Supply
| Supply route | Define | Separate requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Empty locket | Actual pendant/necklace unit | Usable photo area |
| Customer insertion | Replacement and retaining arrangement | Suitable insert specification |
| Prepared photo | Agreed image result | Actual service method and terms |
| Repeat project | Accepted crop/template and version | No automatic coverage of new designs |

Choose Chain Fit and Packing for the Finished Keepsake
The month-themed and floral ranges use18 inches, while the heart part range has no numeric length in its options. Keep those facts visible. A pendant's size and depth add to the wearing arrangement and affect presentation space independently of chain length.
For packing, protect the selected front, opening and chain without assuming a jewelry box is included. A raised locket needs usable depth; the chain needs an intended layout. The keepsake story can be personal while the supplied parts and packaging remain precise enough for a retail product description.

- Heart assemblySelected pendant and chain parts · Actual chain length

Send the Locket and Image Plan Together
Send the exact locket option, the intended pendant/chain contents and quantities. Add the usable-photo dimensions or template you need, the desired image arrangement and whether photo preparation is part of the request. We can discuss the selected construction and applicable sample or service arrangements.
Choose the exterior design because it suits the gift, then make the inside work for the actual photograph. A useful locket brief combines opening, visible image space, retention and necklace fit. It does not treat a photo title or attractive group image as proof that printing, insertion and every chain are already included.
