This is a truly special necklace that has been in my personal collection for 15 years. At over 100 years old, this striking example of Victorian mourning jewelry features a black gutta-percha heart pendant with shimmering pyrite embedded in the center on both sides.
A note about condition ~ The pendant itself shows signs of time passing, cracks in the surface that add to its beauty. It is suspended on a gutta-percha chain that also shows signs of wear, there are areas of aged discoloration and a spot where the links have been repaired. All of these marks making the piece even more special and one-of-a-kind. Please be aware of this patina before purchasing, the necklace is priced with its condition in mind.
