The Korean boxwood focal piece states it well: "your heart is a muscle," pumping sure and strong throughout your life. An anatomical vermeil heart charm is framed by the warm wood and hangs from strands of wood and glass in this 20" necklace. Vermeil jewelry are sterling silver items plated with a high karat gold, such as 18kt or 24kt yellow gold, and generally the items are considered higher quality than standard gold-plating because of the base metal. Delicate seedbead glass shine between beads for a lightweight and colorful accessory. The necklace fastens with a gold-plate brass toggle.

Cost: $48.00 USD
