Old Heart Shaped Lock and Key antique advertisment 5 1/4" in diameter xI've got a soft spot for old locks, especially heart shaped ones, and even if locking a lock to a bridge to seal one's love is a bit of a cliche at this point, I think it's still a pretty sweet thing to do, for which this one would be perfect. But also good for locking up a box of old love letters! 2 1 2" t x 2" w x 7 16" d. With key, which works well, and in very good condition.
