A resin cameo portrait sits at the center of an open filigree heart, the whole pendant edged in a continuous line of aurora borealis rhinestones that shift between pale blue and silver depending on the light. Below, a cascade of fine gold-tone chain falls in a tassel — the kind of detail that turns a pendant into a statement without requiring any effort from the wearer. The cameo itself is a classical female profile in cream and warm brown, framed by a sunburst of radiating gold-tone petals. A maximalist piece from a decade that understood how to layer beauty. Unsigned.
