The kinetic iconography of the Happy Hearts motif
In 1976, Chopard introduced a groundbreaking jewellery concept by freeing the diamond from its static setting, allowing it to move freely between two sapphire crystals. The Happy Hearts collection combines this signature technique with the universal motif of the heart. This 18K rose gold necklace showcases this architectural duality by layering a heart housing a moving diamond with a heart crafted from natural white mother-of-pearl. This pre-owned piece embodies a sense of assertive elegance.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The design is based on a flowing forçat chain, punctuated by a discreet lobster clasp. The fixed pendant features a two-tiered structure. The lower section is set in a closed setting with a carefully calibrated mother-of-pearl disc. The upper section incorporates a sealed transparent capsule protecting a brilliant-cut diamond with a certified weight of 0.05 carats. The mirror-polished rose gold emphasises the softness of the curves and contrasts with the iridescent sheen of the organic material.
Why choose this second-hand necklace
Purchasing this recent creation second-hand is a particularly sensible decision. The Happy Hearts collection is a mainstay of Chopard’s contemporary range. The mechanism of the moving diamond requires highly precise assembly, resulting in high production costs. This choice allows you to add a statement piece that sparkles to your wardrobe, whilst maximising your investment compared to the new market.
