My Mum was still in school in the 1960s and she had one of these hearts as a pendant. Her original pendant was a made with base metal fittings and a silver plated chain. It's super sweet and served as inspiration to re-use this glass and turn them into a pair of contemporary yet timeless earrings to wear every day.
