During her journeys to the southernmost tip of Portugal, Elke happened upon a curved ridge joined with the natural coastland arches, forming an epic heart shape. It was a reminder that the heart is the most enduring force in all of nature. Elke's vision of this iconic form was not as a trite valentine or cute emoji; our Algarve Heart Necklace embraces the heart as an enduring, powerful muscle. Each unique piece of wearable art is born when fire meets metal within charcoal hand carving, in a process that's a dance between sculptural intent and unexpected breakthroughs. Slightly off-center but always on-point, the organic, tendrilous design heeds the knocks and breaks that every heart must overcome. In stunning solid .925 silver, it's the central, beating focus of your every look. Proudly handmade in NYC.
