Vintage Gold Tone Open Heart Pendant Necklace Red Rhinestone Ribbon Heart

Description
A 1970s–1980s pendant made from a single gold-tone ribbon folded into an asymmetrical open heart, its curves catching light like a stream bending in sun. A faceted red rhinestone sits in a crown of tiny prongs at the top, bright as a cherry against the gold. The open shape keeps it light, and it rests just below the hollow of the throat on a fine 16" cable chain. Sweet, simple, and easy to wear every day.
