You can’t go wrong with a heart-shape jewel and amongst those that caught our eye is the darling little open ring with a gold heart and twinkling diamond (below) by Ruifier , the London house with a quirky and very contemporary take on fine jewels. Simple yet striking are Los Angeles designer to the stars Irene Neuwirth’s brushed yellow-gold dangling heart earrings that are romantic with a touch of West Coast cool. We were won over by gemstones carved into heart shapes with designs like French jeweller Yvonne Léon’s red rhodolite heart pendant on an edgy chain with different chain links on either side. Shay’s adorable chubby little pink sapphire heart studs are sure to make her starry-eyed.
