ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

A 'heart of gold' is yours to have with this enchanting Edwardian-era pendant (circa 1890-1900). Set with shimmering mother-of-pearl and glowing at its center with a .60 carat collet-set rich deep cherry-red ruby, this enduring symbol of love is framed by a guilloche design overlaid by vibrant transparent red enamel, dotted and rimmed with gold. For a delightful finishing flourish, it is topped by a bow that glimmers with rose and single-cut diamonds. Did your heart just skip a beat? Hand fabricated in 14K gold. Chain measures 16 inches.

About Edwardian Jewelry

Edwardians took the dark beauty of Victorian jewelry and dyed it platinum blonde. Light and airy filigree, worked with intricate millegrain and detailed designs in that durable metal, was liberally set with the “white” stones—pearls and diamonds chief among them. The Victorians’ sense of whimsy and beloved yellow gold didn’t disappear completely, though, even as the Edwardian era made way for the further-streamlined Art Deco.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
