This colorful Victorian inspired charm necklace showcases a gallery of gemstones holding a hidden term of endearment. Within each heart, various gemstones are arranged in order (diamond, emerald, amethyst, ruby, emerald, sapphire and turquoise) spelling out the word DEAREST.
Popular in the Victorian era, this type of jewelry was given to loved ones to express secret romantic messages, thus reminding the one who wore it how dear they were to their suitor's heart.
The seven heart charms are comprised of approximately 5.30ctw varying antique cut diamonds and approximately 1.50ctw of color center gemstones set in our cobblestone style on our 17" handcrafted 18K yellow gold Mini Club chain.
Our jewelry is made locally in Los Angeles and most pieces are made to order. For these made-to-order items, please allow 8-12 weeks for delivery. In-stock items will ship the following business day (Tues-Fri). Please contact us if you have any questions or special requests.
The unique combination of stones used in each of our signature Cobblestone pieces makes them completely original. When a piece is designed, the first step is to select stones from our vast collection of vintage diamonds and gems. These include a variety of shapes, sizes and colors. The stones are then laid out in a pattern that compliments the shape of the setting and the stones. Like a snowflake or a fingerprint, each resulting pattern is unique, making it truly one of a kind.
If the 4 Cs of Diamond Quality are Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight, then antique diamonds offer a 5th C: Character. With a unique play of light due to their hand-cut nature, each antique diamond is truly one-of-a-kind. The appeal of these rare diamonds lies in their broad facet patterns, their unique silhouettes, and their ability to dazzle in low and modern lighting conditions. Unlike their modern counterparts, which are cut with modern machinery and to exacting specifications, there are only a finite number of antique diamonds available, making them scarce and highly sought after. Repurposing antique diamonds also reduces environmental impact, which is something we feel very strongly about.
Because you're an original and your jewelry should be, too.
At Single Stone, you don’t need to create a custom bespoke design to have a unique piece of jewelry. Individually crafted with unique vintage and mindfully-sourced stones, no two pieces are alike.
Our jewelry is often inspired by the antique diamonds they are designed around. Featuring characteristics reminiscent of the Art Deco, Edwardian and Victorian eras, there's something for every vintage jewelry lover.
