Hearts abound during February.  The bracelet pictured features heart charms from the Forties and Fifties.  The charms are suspended from a sterling identification (ID) bracelet with a beautifully engraved plaque.

The rose festooned hearts feature longwearing guilloche enameling and are in excellent condition. The pansy and Fleur di Lis are decorated with so-called cold enameling (“paint”) that is in remarkable condition given their age.  The peacock charm shows substantial enamel wear, which is fairly typical with vintage heart charms.
