Antique Pearl and Diamond Heart Pendant/Brooch by Shreve & Co
Pearl perfection! The immaculate setting of these little pearls will soothe the OCD in the most long suffering of us, it’s just incredible. Obviously this is an incredibly pretty piece, made with crazy expertise and care, but it’s the teeny tiny diamond in the centre that does it for me. It doesn’t need to be there, one barely notices it, but it is, and it’s gorgeous.
As with many brooches from this period, this can also be worn as a pendant, the fold down bale hides this option discreetly.
Shreve & Co were a renowned jewellery firm based in San Francisco, and they would have been proud to put their name to this gorgeous jewel.
