Vintage Heart Padlock Necklace

$800

The heart-shaped padlock clasp was exceedingly popular in the late 19th century and into the 20th century. This 9k gold heart is particularly pretty example of the style, hand-engraved with feathery swirls and faux screw heads. We've added an 18" gold chain to make this pristine vintage clasp into a wearable necklace.
