This beautiful Sculptural Heart Necklace is a statement piece for any occasion.  Pieces of a green heart-shaped tin became the centerpiece.  Furthermore, there are vintage rhinestones, art glass beads, green marble from my childhood that all come together perfectly.

I love the texture of the articulated chain that adjusts with a hook and chain.  The 14 enameled green and red teardrops each dangle (and move) independently from the dangle at the bottom.

The centerpiece is 5” x 2” with an additional 2 ½” drop.  It adjusts in length from 20”-22 ½” with the hook and chain clasp so it will fit a variety of necklines.

Have you ever wondered how the heart shape became associated with love and Valentine’s Day?  So I did some snooping around out on the net and came up with a couple enlightening links for you:

Really, it wasn’t a sales ploy for candy and cards!  Also, a real surprise is that one of the oldest sited use of the symbol was imprinted on a coin!  Apparently it was the shape of a type of fennel seed that was a botanical treatment for a variety of human ailments (and birth control) that was a cash producing commodity.    Hence why it was depicted on their coins.
