A rare find, this wonderfully crafted antique Georgian pendant has woven natural seed pearls into a heart shape with a sparkling center diamond. The diamond is set in sterling silver with even the bale of the heart having a woven loop. All layers are woven and stitched to a mother of pearl back in which small holes were drilled for the thread to pass and fasten the ornament securely. All this is handwork done pearl by pearl, which makes it more the treasure! Very hard to find woven pearl jewelry retaining all the pearls and threading secure.
