WEIGHT: 1.7g.

FAQs

Late Victorian heart pendants, popularised during the late 1800s, often symbolised love and devotion, frequently featuring puffed hollow gold forms decorated with starburst-set gemstones.

Victorian jewellery frequently utilised 15ct yellow gold, a standard gold purity in Britain from 1854 to 1932, along with hand-set diamonds or seed pearls.

Authentic pieces often bear British hallmarks indicating gold purity and date letters, alongside hand-engraved starburst settings and period-appropriate bail constructions.

An antique gold heart pendant can be suspended from a fine contemporary gold chain or layered alongside modern gold necklaces for a textured look.

Clean gently using lukewarm water, a mild soapy solution, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemicals to protect the delicate antique gold surface and gemstone setting.
