My Love Bronze Heart Pendant Necklace

There is something appealing about jewelry that looks like you'd inherit it from a relative nobody in the family was particularly willing to discuss.

The My Love Necklace from Collection 1304 takes the familiar heart pendant and gives it the character of something discovered in an old jewelry box, possibly belonging to a woman with excellent taste and a mildly scandalous past. Cast in solid bronze and set with three cubic zirconia stones, the sculptural heart has a warm, aged quality that feels beautifully removed from the usual polished perfection of modern jewelry. It hangs from a gold-filled chain, creating a subtle contrast between the golden metal and the pendant's rich, antique-inspired finish.

Handcrafted with the kind of detail that rewards a closer look, it's a piece for romantics, collectors, and anyone who believes jewelry should have a little history to it, even when it's brand new. The heart is an old symbol, admittedly, but it's survived several thousand years of human civilization for a reason.

About the Maker | Collection 1304

Collection 1304 is the work of American jewelry designer Hannah Glover, whose background in fine arts and sculpture gives her a rather different approach to making jewelry. She begins with raw metal, clay, and wax, often carving her designs by hand before transforming them into bronze and sterling silver pieces made in the USA. Inspired by antique jewelry and the peculiar human habit of attaching enormous sentimental value to small metal objects, Glover creates pieces meant to gather stories of their own.
