V&A Museum Sterling Silver Shakespeare Locket

The locket is decorated with trailing flowers, which is inspired by the embroidery on a jacket made in 1610 for Margaret Laton, wife of the Master Yeoman of the Jewell House during the reigns of James I and VI, Charles I and II. This jacket is displayed in the V&A. 

Beautiful inscription on the back by William Shakespeare's sonnet 116:
