louise

fabulous rare gold-plated miriam haskell three-dimensional ribbed heart pendant steals the spotlight with its sculptural charm and timeless allure. suspended beneath a luminous oversized vintage faux pearl, the heart is flanked by 1950s ribbed bead caps and two small vintage ribbed brass beads, echoing its textured elegance. the pendant connects to an old world style gold-plated toggle clasp via a classic brass lobster clasp, adding a hint of vintage romance. the chain is a striking, weighty vintage brass rolo, rich with patina and history.

miriam haskell was celebrated not only for her use of hand-wired faux pearls and intricate beadwork, but also for her distinctive gold-plated components, often finished with a softly glowing patina that only deepened in beauty over time. this warm, antique gold finish became a signature of her mid-century creations, and the ribbed heart in this piece glows with that same aged luster. a true heart-stopper—vintage love at its most golden.
