Hand-Painted Doll Locket Necklace, Victorian Purple Gothic Necklace, Dark Witch Jewelry, Weird Birthday Gift

This doll locket necklace was made to be noticed without asking for permission. The tiny, hand-painted doll sits in a vintage style locket and is framed by purple glass beads and tarnished crown details. It reads as both delicate and unsettling, a wearable portrait that holds a mood more than a memory.

Wear it solo over a high collar or layer it with chains for a heavier, ritual look. The locket opens like a real antique so you can tuck a photo, a scrap of paper, or leave it empty as a private emblem. Built to age with you, the materials are chosen for durability with a lived-in finish that only gets stranger and better over time. This is a one-of-a-kind handmade gothic neckla made for collectors, rebels, and anyone who wants jewelry that tells a story.

Materials

• stone clay
• titanium steel
• glass beads

How It’s Made

Every gothic locket necklace is crafted slowly, step by step, so each detail holds meaning:

1. Hand-shaped in stone clay – the doll pendant begins as raw clay, carefully molded by hand into its hauntingly delicate form.

2. Naturally air-dried – no shortcuts, just time, allowing the clay to settle and strengthen.

3. Refined, shaped, and sanded – every edge smoothed, every surface perfected by touch.

4. Painted by hand with custom-mixed colors – the gothic makeup is created stroke by stroke, capturing expression and depth.

5. Decorated with tiny details – metal accents and other details are carefully placed, each symbol chosen with purpose.

6. Sealed with a protective finish – to preserve both color and texture, so your piece lasts for years.

7. Assembled with care – pendant and pearls brought together into one finished piece.

8. Final quality check before shipping – nothing leaves the studio unless it feels right in my hands.

Care Instructions

• Avoid water: These are not waterproof. Take them off before swimming, showering, or sweating it out.
• Keep them dry: If they get damp, gently wipe them with an alcohol pad and let them fully air dry.
• Store properly: Place in a soft pouch or jewelry box when not in use.
• Be gentle when cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemicals. For metal parts, a slightly damp cloth is fine.
• Avoid scratching: Keep them away from sharp edges or rough surfaces.
• No perfumes or lotions: Don’t spray directly or apply cream over them. Let your skin dry first.
• Avoid chemicals and heavy work: Don’t wear while cleaning, doing chores, or handling harsh substances. Sweat, detergents, and friction can damage the finish or cause oxidation over time.
• Even high-quality metals like solid gold, sterling silver, or gold-plated parts may naturally oxidize and darken over time with wear.

NOTE

Each piece is 100% handmade in my home studio. From mixing colors to shaping and detailing, every step is done by hand.
You might notice tiny marks, slight variations, or a bit of asymmetry, that’s part of the charm.
No two are exactly the same. It’s not a flaw, it’s what makes each one unique.

My work is 100% original. If you see similar items elsewhere, they’re not made with the same materials, or the same care. JoyGothic is the only official source.

 For You

Believe this: you can be soft, wild, rebellious, and free however you want.
Own your edges. Stay true.
We’re all fighting to keep our fire alive, breaking through the darkness, dreaming our way to freedom.
And no matter what, we shout it loud and clear:
Femininity is power. Women are always beautiful. Always have been, always will be.

About Me

I’m a deeply emotional and sometimes pessimistic person. Making handmade pieces has been my healing, it’s where I find joy so real that I often lose track of time and forget to eat. I just want to do what I love and support myself, so my prices reflect that balance.

When I first started selling online, I faced a lot of pain from stolen designs and copycats. It was tough. I cried more than once. But the kindness and support from strangers like you kept me going. You’re more than customers, you’re friends I haven’t met yet.

This little shop is a piece of my healing. I hope it brings you a piece of yours, too. Thank you for being part of this journey with me.
