Loving Hearts

Two interlocking hearts, built entirely from vintage pearls, crystals, and brooches, and personalized with names and a date. A keepsake for a wedding, an anniversary, or anyone celebrating a pair.

The design

Each heart is outlined in strands of pearls, then filled with a mix of vintage brooches, crystal clusters, and beaded flowers — no two pieces built quite the same way, since the jewelry itself sets the pattern.

Names and a date are worked into the center in fine gold wire, so the piece reads as a keepsake first and a display piece second. This one was made for Emilia and Reise, ahead of their August wedding.

The Build

Placed by hand, piece by piece

Pearls, brooches, and crystal clusters are laid out and adjusted for balance before anything is set — vintage jewelry doesn't come in matching sets, so the layout is built to flow rather than to mirror itself.

Loving Hearts is built to order — any two names, any date, sized to fit a keepsake frame. A wedding gift, an anniversary piece, or a tribute to any pair worth celebrating.
