Late Edwardian? Early Art Deco? This piece straddles the two eras, but we really don’t care how it’s labeled – the beauty of the piece outweighs the historical argument. This pendant (which can also be worn as a brooch) is crafted in rich platinum overlaid onto 14k yellow gold- a manufacturing method that allowed the craftsmen to go even finer with the filigree details. The two lobes of the heart have flowing lines which lead down into a central old European cut Diamond which, though not large, adds great sparkle and presence to the piece. Platinum wires radiate outward from the Diamond, reminding us of the heart’s electrical pulse. The piece measures just over an inch across- large enough for a substantial look but not too big for everyday wear. If you have been looking for the perfect heart pendant gift, look no further.

Details- platinum over 14k heart pendant set with .05ct round old European cut Diamond (VS2 GH) and filigree accent work, circa 1920.
