Vintage Lapis Lazuli 14k Yellow Gold Heart Charm Pendant c.1970s

Description

An adorable vintage charm pendant; beautifully modelled with a shapely 3D heart of lapis lazuli, set to a smooth buttery yellow gold collet mount, and delicate pendant loop.

Lapis lazuli has been a popular stone in jewellery since the times of the ancients; particularly prized for its intense blue hue, naturally flecked with gold pyrite to catch the eye. This particular example has a wonderful ‘glitter’ to it in the natural markings of the stone.

This gorgeous piece looks great on its own or layered with other charms. A great addition to any vintage jewellery collection.

ERA: Vintage c. 1970s

ORIGIN: Likely American

MATERIAL: Yellow gold (un-hallmarked but tests as 14k) and natural lapis lazuli

SIZE: 16mm at widest point across.

CONDITION: Lovely vintage condition – no chips or cracks to the stone, and the mount is well made and secure. The fixed loop is a daintier size so would take a fine chain, or could be added to a charm holder if you wanted to wear with chunkier chains.
