What it does

Spells you cast cost 1 generic mana less to cast for each card with the same name as that spell in your graveyard.

Every hour, at the turning of the glass, its owner had whispered to the locket, seeding it with secrets. This would be her legacy, her memory, if the rifts should take her.

Provenance

Where it came from

The Locket of Yesterdays was released as part of the Time Spiral expansion for Magic: The Gathering in 2006. The set was designed around the theme of temporal instability and nostalgia, featuring mechanics that referenced the game's long history. The card functions as a cost-reducer for spells played from the graveyard, fitting perfectly into the set's focus on recycling past mechanics and cards.

The artwork was provided by Dany Orizio, a veteran illustrator known for his contributions to the fantasy genre. Orizio employed a muted, ethereal color palette to evoke a sense of antique memory and fleeting time. The design received modest attention upon release as a niche utility artifact, valued primarily for its specific synergy with flashback and storm decks rather than for its aesthetic presence alone.
