9CT GOLD ROUNDED OPEN HEART NECKLACE

Oh, I do love a piece of jewellery that doesn't overcomplicate things. No Diamonds, no enormous gemstones, no architectural engineering degree required to understand the design. Just a beautifully simple 9ct Yellow Gold open heart necklace, doing exactly what a good necklace should do: sitting prettily against your neckline and making you feel a little bit more fabulous.

This solid 9ct Yellow Gold open heart necklace is a gorgeous everyday staple, with a classic rounded heart design that manages to be romantic without becoming aggressively sentimental. It's the jewellery equivalent of saying I love you without hiring a string quartet and releasing doves.

The heart is one of those symbols that has been used in jewellery for centuries, most famously representing love, affection and emotional connection. And I rather like the fact that the centre is open rather than filled in. It gives the design a lovely sense of lightness and makes it incredibly easy to wear.

The necklace measures 18 inches / 45cm, with an additional jump ring allowing you to shorten it to approximately 16 inches. So whether you're wearing a crew neck, a blouse, a little black dress or your usual "I have absolutely no idea what I'm wearing today" ensemble, you've got a choice of neckline positions.

And because I'm a great believer in jewellery earning its keep, this is a piece you can wear alone for simple elegance or layered with other necklaces for a more contemporary look. It works beautifully with fine chains, pendants and other Gold pieces, allowing you to create your own necklace stack rather than having a jewellery designer dictate your personality to you.

Solid 9ct Yellow Gold – No Fill, No Plate

This necklace is made from genuine 9ct Yellow Gold. It is not Gold-filled, and it is not Gold-plated.

That's worth saying because jewellery terminology can sometimes resemble a particularly confusing episode of MasterChef: Gold, Gold vermeil, Gold-filled, Gold-plated, Gold-tone... and suddenly everyone needs a lie-down.

Here, we're talking about 9ct Yellow Gold jewellery, chosen for its warm colour, durability and everyday wearability.

I only offer high-quality jewellery manufactured from carefully selected materials, because if you're going to buy something lovely, I rather think it should be properly lovely.

A Little Gold History

Humans have been rather obsessed with Gold for a very long time.

Gold artefacts appear in the archaeological record of ancient Egypt from the very beginning of the Predynastic period, around the end of the fifth millennium BC and beginning of the fourth millennium BC. Gold was valued for its beauty, rarity and resistance to corrosion, and its association with wealth and status has survived remarkably well over the subsequent few thousand years.

Basically, we've been looking at Gold and thinking 'that's nice' for an exceptionally long time.

The heart symbol has enjoyed an equally successful career. Stylised hearts have become one of jewellery's most enduring symbols of love, making this 9ct Gold heart necklace a particularly easy gift when you want to say something meaningful without actually having to compose an emotional speech.

Although, obviously, you could just buy the necklace and let the jewellery do the talking.

Matching Jewellery Available

If you're the sort of person who enjoys a coordinated jewellery moment — and frankly, I applaud the commitment — a matching pair of 9ct Gold open heart stud earrings and matching bracelet are also available.

And if Yellow Gold isn't quite your colour, this design can also be ordered in 9ct White Gold or 9ct Rose Gold.

So you can have the same lovely heart design in the Gold colour that makes your jewellery-loving little heart sing.

Jewellery Care – Looking After Your Gold

Gold is wonderfully durable, but even Gold appreciates being treated properly. I recommend removing your necklace before swimming, bathing, showering, exercising and sleeping where practical, particularly if you're wearing it alongside other jewellery.

Try to keep it away from perfume, hairspray, creams, cosmetics, chlorine and household cleaning products. These can leave residues on jewellery or affect the finish over time.

When you're not wearing your necklace, store it individually in a soft jewellery pouch or a jewellery box with compartments, away from direct sunlight and from harder gemstones or jewellery that could scratch its surface.

A little care goes a surprisingly long way. Your jewellery doesn't need to be placed in a museum — it just needs not to be thrown into a handbag underneath a bottle of perfume, three hairbrushes and seventeen receipts.
