What a gorgeous masterpiece I have just received. WOW. I purchased this because I love and appreciate unique art items - especially with amazing quality. Being following your site for a long time. Perhaps it will be given to my oldest granddaughter one day (she’s only 16+ …) Otherwise, I will cherish it myself - but, being a widower , one does never know — even after 21 years…. Keep up with this amazing craftsmanship. Best regards and God bless,

I am Tsonka Bogdanova, I live in Bulgaria.
Some time ago, my friend Iliana, who lives in the States and placed the order with you, brought me the locket. I've been wearing it all the time since then, I really like it. This is the most beautiful thing I have. Thank you dear Mr. Anderson, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I remain very grateful to you. I wish good health and happiness to your whole family.
THANK YOU!

When I originally contacted you some time ago, when I was trying to find a way to buy directly from you and get it posted to the UK, it just ended up being too costly, so in the end settled for a cheaper version made in China. Kept looking at your sight every now and again over the year and ordered it. I bet you will never guess who makes the better locket, you or China? Not really even close and that is purely a rhetorical question, there is of course no real comparison to the ultimate piece that you have made for me. Cannot thank you enough and it has been a pleasure to finally have it here.
Lost my wife to cancer, so the locket will be a fitting tribute to her.

I have not written too many reviews, at least in respect to the number of purchases. However, after purchasing the Illusionist Locket, getting it home and actually seeing this truly impressive piece of work close up; I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to share my opinion on this piece of art.
I was initially captivated by this locket/design having recently seen it in the movie from which it is based upon. To give this version credit, it is by far in a way “better” then the one used on screen in both smoothness of operation and looks. The tolerances throughout the locket and its actions are unbelievably tight. The movement through its various phases (mine was the model with the added secret compartment) were equally smooth. It’s simply a beautiful and robust piece of handcrafted artwork.
For what it’s worth I don’t wear jewelry, not even a watch. This piece though, is something I will be wearing for years to come. Whether you are a girl, or boy like myself; I promise this will not soon be a purchase you will regret making.

I wanted to follow-up and tell you that today was my anniversary. I've hidden our little secret unopened for this very day. I came home from work, we ate dinner and wished each other a happy anniversary (she thought that I had gotten her nothing) and I've played it off for the past month. So after dinner we put our daughter to bed and started watching the movie. We ate some ice cream in the process and before the end of it I asked her what she thought of the necklace. She said it was nice but when I asked her if she wanted one she said no! I said why not? She said because it's not real and would be too expensive. Then the movie ended I kissed and said happy anniversary while bringing out her box still wrapped in it's white packing paper.
She was shocked and quite surprised! She told me she was sorry she did not have a gift for me, I said it's ok. As I reached over to my bedside table and took out the second box. Because I got myself a matching pair. Yes still wrapped in it's paper, I opened mine! I was more excited I think to open mine then her. Since you know I'm a huge fan. The necklaces and locket did not disappoint, they are a true work of art and craftsmanship!

Just a little positive feedback. I received the locket last Thursday and was so excited to give it to my wife that I couldn't wait until her birthday (March 30). We were out to dinner on Friday evening, so she received it then and let me tell you, she was absolutely ecstatic. We love it. The quality workmanship is beyond compare. Yesterday at church she was showing it off to virtually everyone and quite a few mechanically minded men were amazed at the ingenuity that went into the locket's creation. Again, thank you for your awesome work. We'll cherish it forever.

I’m extremely happy with everything you have done. Craftsmanship is amazing. Packaging was perfect. I got more than I was expecting not only just the locket made with precision but a picture punch full set of instructions, a hand written certificate telling me the locket #, cleaning pad, adhesives for the pictures and a lovely presentation box as well. Customer service was bang on as well! You can be sure I will hand out your business cards and recommend the product to everyone I know. I wish all businesses operate the way you do. Great Job Mr Anderson!

Just arrived! (26/7/2018) Astonishing, Absolutely stunning! A lot smaller than anticipated! And that only ADDS to the amazing workmanship! I’m an engineer by trade, so I can appreciate the work involved! With the tax’s I’ve had to pay, it was not a cheap item! But craftsmanship of this scale, and its price, can not be faulted!! It’s been bought for my wife’s 60’s birthday, and I’m sure she will be delighted! Beautiful item, well crafted!!

Please accept Testimonial: Illusionist lockets have produced a quality piece of jewelry made famous by the brilliant Film "The Illusionist". I personally have been waiting for someone to achieve this challenge since seeing that film on the first of many occasions. the contact and help by the Seller that was given me in such a polite and positive manner allowed the correction of the many mistakes that I had made when ordering this great product and I cannot recommend "Illusionist Lockets" highly enough. Thank you so much.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know this is the second of your lockets I've bought. I bought one years ago, not long after you started selling them online I think, and loved it from day one. I had people recognize it from the movie while vacationing in Mexico, people always asked me about it, and every time I wore it the neighborhood kids all asked me to show it to them over and over.
The craftsmanship was beautiful and as an artist I can really appreciate that you figured out how engineer something like this and make it so beautiful. Sadly, we got broken into in February and my locket was stolen. I've ordered a new locket and am very excited to see the new thinner style. I figured I'd fire you off an email saying how happy I am with your product today- being as I meant to do it about... 10 years ago(?!) and never did.

Thank you for that beautiful Locket. You are a craftsman, the work that you do, is second to none. I cant wait to give it to my wife at Christmas. You did a wonderful job on the photo’s of my sister, and grandson, I am very proud. Also the package you put it in, is like something from Harrods of London, wow. The wrapping of the paper around the locket, is first class, and the box its self, is just fantastic. You will be hearing from me again, because I want one for myself and my daughter. Many thanks Jim, and have a nice Christmas, best wishes.

I can’t tell you how impressed I am by the brilliance and beauty of this locket. It combines the best of an artisan’s hand craftsmanship with an ingenious high mechanical technology that still leaves me puzzled every time I try it. Virtually all other conventional jewelry pales in comparison. Congratulations on creating this masterpiece which completely captures the charm and magic of the film. I know my wife will love and treasure it for years to come. Even now I’m saving up to purchase a second one for another family member.

How do I start, well firstly I came across your site while searching for a gift for my sister who was getting married. The more I researched similar products the more I kept returning to your site. Not only did your site provide me with all the information I wanted, but I also had warm responses to extra questions that cropped up. Now anytime one purchases from overseas there is always a potential for a negative scenario. But let me allay any fears from any potential customers, not only did the locket arrive quickly and safely from the USA to little ole New Zealand. But the care taken in packaging was awesome, let alone the “Locket”. It was made with great precision, by someone who is proud of their work, who loves what they do, it all shows. All I can say is Thank You Jim, Thank You. If anyone is looking for that one special gift, I would recommend Jim.(and you all can call me for a verbal reference)

I have wanted a locket like this since I saw the movie. This is far superior in quality. This is a memorial piece for my Mom and Grandmother so it meant a lot to me that this turned out right. The locket itself was so stunning I cried. Once I opened the locket to see my loved ones inside I cried more. You took such great care to make this perfect. This is the most beautiful piece of art I have. I will cherish this forever. You were so helpful and kind when I emailed you with questions and the package arrived quickly so the customer service was impeccable as well. All of your work is stunning and I am so happy and honored that I have a one of a kind locket made by you. I can't thank you enough.

When people receive this gift from me they freak out at the beauty of the locket. Then comes the silent shock and awe as they realize it changes into a heart. The dual pictures always confuses them and then they always look at me like I just gave the a wedding ring. I enjoy making people happy and your lockets make that task very easy. Thanks yet again!

I'm taking time out from admiring and holding the locket pendant to say thank you for your excellent craftsmanship and precision. It is a solid and amazing piece and is sure to be an heirloom piece. Everything about it is pleasing to the senses from its weight in hand to the texture of the wood. My four year old is enamored of the magic locket and insists I get him one of his own (umm, when he's older he can ask that again). I was, also, impressed with the overall presentation and your customer service from beginning-to-end.

I am truly amazed at the quality and craftsmanship of this locket. It is a beautiful piece.
I’ve been a tool and die maker since 1968 and therefore I have developed a taste for true craftsmanship, and to a certain degree very critical in my inspection of workmanship. This piece simply is the best I’ve seen in a long time.
As by coincidence the movie played on TV the day before and I made sure my wife would watch it, she caught a glimpse of the locket in the movie, and when she opened the beautiful little box her look was priceless.
Thank you so much for making such a beautiful locket.

The quality of your service (delivery and presentation) is outdone only by the quality of this locket!

As a dentist I appreciate fine craftsmanship, delicate, intricate, meticulous quality. Painstakingly executed. You may have heard such word before, but here's one you haven't; " transcendent". And " enchanting". You have taken mere metal and wood and given life to the mystical, emotional symbol from Eisenheim. Until now it was an idea, an image To hold it in three dimensions and manipulate the mechanism. I tell you, it transcends the story and the movie. Thank you so much for bringing this to life. Good job Jim!

Top quality product and presentation by a master craftsman. Visually flawless, everything is smooth and clean. The mechanism works well and is strong and sturdy. Changing the picture is a breeze. Materials are beautiful quality and everything is put together snugly. Comes in a luxury leather box, & all supplies needed are included in the shipping package. The artist really has thought of every little detail when preparing this package for shipment. Comes with everything you need, makes a fantastic gift for someone special. Could not have spent my money any better!

I just received the Illusionist locket I ordered from you and I could not be happier. It's so beautiful. I've wanted this locket since the first time I saw the movie. It's taken me 7 years to finally talk myself into it and I am so glad I did. Exquisite craftsmanship, painstaking details, and solid feel to the locket all make it a piece of jewelry to be treasured for years to come. Thank you so much. Wishing you and your family all the best in 2014.

Just to let you know I've already received the locket! That was amazingly fast, thank you for shipping it right away. The locket itself is fantastic! It's clear a lot of workmanship and care went into it, I'm very pleased. I took a good 2 days to decide on which wood to go with, I'm really happy with my choice. The wood and colour are spot on. Thanks again. I can't wait to give it to my girlfriend now.

This product is fantastic! The craftsmanship is incredible, the pendant feels so solid and unbreakable and the overall appearance is gorgeous. I've been wanting to get this for my sister for a long time and I'm sure she will love it as much as I do! Thank you for including detailed instructions, the box and the circle punch. Thank you again for such amazing work. I'm very impressed.

I received one of your lockets for my birthday ( after begging for three years ) and I just wanted to say that it was well worth the wait! The quality of this piece is outstanding! Everyone I have shown it to so far has been amazed, and has compared the craftsmanship and precision to that of a high end instrument. You have truly done a service in creating something I can cherish, love, and hopefully pass on to my daughter. Thank you for the time and effort that went into making my locket, it is beautiful!

Oh my goodness, I got my locket yesterday, and as there is no place that I can see to leave you feedback, I wanted to write and let you know that you really are a genius! This is the most gorgeous piece of jewelry I have ever owned, and the most ingeniously made. It works flawlessly, and fascinates me so much that I am glad it won't wear out, since I open it quite often. Thank you so much for the punch, instructions, etc. also, I was just stunned by the entire presentation, just awesome. I wish I didn't ever have to take this lovely locket off. My husband is very happy that he got me something so special to both of us for our Anniversary, and that I obviously dearly love. One of these days, I'll go for one of the acrylic ones, maybe in the Slim size, but this one will always be my special "Sophie" locket. You are an excellent artist, and have not seen the last of me! Thank you again for "making" our Anniversary!!

I received my locket and I could not be more thrilled! It is AMAZING! The craftsmanship is exquisite and I could not have asked for better. It truly is an amazement to behold. The pictures and videos on your site simply do not do them justice. I have had many friends ask how to get one and am always pleased to pass the information along! Every time I put it around my neck I feel the love from husband, who gave it to me, and that you put into making it. It is the finest piece of jewelry that I own. Every time I show it to someone there is always a look of wonder in their eyes. Thank you, Thank You, Thank You for this amazing piece of art that I get to call my very own. I wear it with pride. Please feel free to share these comments as I think the world should know how amazing you are!

I purchased one of your lockets as a Christmas gift for my daughter. I received it today, but since it made so long a journey I opened it to make sure everything was OK before giving it to her. To say that I was beyond words is not enough. I was grateful when I saw how carefully it had been packed to ensure it arrived safely, but I was also very surprised when I realized the care put into the presentation. The outside box was pretty, but the inside box was superb. The locket itself is absolutely amazing. I was very happy to see how beautiful the color of the wood was, and the softness to the touch it had. Really, the pictures in your website do no do these lockets justice.
I am very happy and I know my daughter will be too when I present it to her. I cannot say enough of your great customer service and the quality of your work, and I'll be happy to recommend you to my friends.
Thank you so much.

I would like to say big THANK YOU for the amazing product and services. I opened the parcel I can’t believed that everything was so well prepared, you even send me the Punch for the photos, it a very handy tool, THANK YOU. I was amazed with the mechanism and the smoothness of the way the Locket opening, closing and twisting. I’ve bought many jewelleries for my wife, like Pearl from Majorca, diamond rings, earrings and necklaces, but this Locket is the most beautiful and meaningful piece of jewellery that I ever bought for my wife. I am truly loving it and I think my wife will be loving it as much as she loving me when she open this present on her Birthday. THANK YOU again for all your hard works.

Thank you for making such beautiful lockets! It is made with unbelievable precision and I'm so thrilled with the purchase. Many times I have been disappointed by other products because by the time I get to hold them in my hands they feel and look completely different from what I had expected. Not your locket. It is everything I expected and more! (I'm very picky.) I love that you thought of every little aspect of the locket and how it functions. It feels so smooth in my hand, I can't stop holding and playing with it. The picture punch exceeded my expectations, too. It's easy and fun to use, and the diameter is so spot on. Jen

Today is my graduation day, and for my graduation gift, my father bought me one of your crafted lockets. I absolutely love it, and in all honestly, I keep twisting it and opening it and playing with it. I cannot wait to show it off. Once I returned home from graduation I immediately put my chosen photos in, and it was absolutely easy to do with the instructions you provided. I just wanted to thank you for making it and for putting so much time and effort into making it, as well as providing instructions and the hole punch to make it easier to install the pictures.

Absolutely satisfied with this order. I ordered it late as a Christmas gift for my fiance and doubted it would get to me by Christmas Eve, but the seller made sure I had it three days before Christmas. I can't say enough about the service of the seller and the quality of product. These lockets are truly pieces of fine art. With the originality and craftsmanship that goes into these things, it's hard to believe they only cost as much as they do.

I'm sure you hear this all the time but you are SO talented. One day I'll pass my locket along to my beautiful daughter and she will pass it along to her child. that's priceless to me. Thank you!

I received locket #215 today. It's beautiful, and exceeds my expectations. The mechanism is fascinating and exquisitely made. You really have come up with a very clever and attractive solution to the Illusionist challenge. I've looked at a lot of others on the internet, and they really are poor attempts. The inclusion of the photo punch really sets this apart as a generous deal from a true craftsman.
Thank you once again.

Thanks so much for your incredibly quick shipment! I have to tell you my wife was absolutely thrilled! I was fascinated myself by the amazingly clever design that apparently even Hollywood Design teams couldn't figure out! I understand the movie makers ended up using two separate lockets to film the scene and personally I find your design much more attractive! Please feel free to use this letter from a soldier deployed in Iraq for your advertisements!

The locket arrived today. WOW! What a masterpiece of design and craftsmanship. (As an artist myself, I greatly admire what you have created.) I left you positive feedback. I wish you great success with your product. You may certainly use me as a testimonial. Jim
Impressive! It’s the best Illusionist pendant I’ve every seen. I’m selling my ones for months, but I to admit that your pendants are the best on youtube. Please keep making them.
Congratulations, your locket is better than the Illusionist’s one! And very precisely made, I’m really amazed! I have just managed how to do that after a lot of thinking. Very, very clever.
