    Polarity Lockets™ are the original magnetic, interchangeable jewelry since 2007!

    I fabricate my lockets from a recycled steel auto part, each comes with multiple magnetic lids - and yes, they hold a picture inside!

    I am lucky enough to collaborate with the most amazing and talented artists on the planet for my locket artwork.

    I believe that people have green hearts and green souls and even an occasional green thumb and want to buy green goods. We want to save the planet, hug a tree, recycle, ride a bicycle and we want to look awesome and amazing and make our friends green with envy while we do these things - and that's where I come in!

    All locket designs are available in both regular and mini size necklaces and as rings, bracelets and earrings. Contact me to set up something special just for you. I am super easy to work with.

    The Polarity Locket Story

    I started collecting lockets when my favorite uncle gave me an Alice in Wonderland bracelet locket which I promptly lost in the schoolyard on the first day of 2nd grade.

    (This left me crying and demanding a lockdown of the school grounds. My teacher refused to search my classmates' pockets and lunch bags - a situation I later blamed for my growing distrust of authority figures and inability to work a wrist strap.)

    Many years later while wandering around my hubby's truck repair shop looking for a place to sit that wasn't covered in brake dust I spied a drawer full of used, blackened auto plugs that began to call my name.

    Hubs said, "Cat, girls don't want to wear steel - girls want gold and silver and things that are shiny and new" and I said, " well ... maybe not all girls" ..

    I began experimenting (when I realized my car parts were magnetic I almost had a coronary - luckily my dog Olive has been trained in CPR and is fast on her feet).

    I took a welding class and after many hours of blood, sweat and tears - in a noisy garage at the Jersey Shore the Polarity Locket was born!

    I now collaborate with the most amazing artists and photographers on the planet for my locket artwork and over 25,000 magnetic lockets have been attracting love and abundance for their owners - magnetic lockets are magical by the way! - since 2007 all handmade in the same Jersey garage by me (with a little help from Olive) and equal doses of love and propane.
