Art Nouveau 9ct Yellow Gold Pink Tourmaline Heart Pendant
A graceful and finely crafted pendant in 9ct yellow gold, designed in the flowing, organic style of the Art Nouveau period (c.1900–1910). The pierced heart-shaped openwork frame is formed of elegant foliate scrolls, features two vivid pink tourmalines. A larger round-cut stone centrally claw-set, and a smaller matching stone suspended below as a drop.
The rich hue of the natural tourmalines complements the soft yellow tone of the gold, offering romantic warmth and period charm. Lightweight yet visually striking, this piece is both a wearable jewel and a beautiful example of early 20th-century design.
