Love Handles Citrine Necklace

Francesca Villa creates designs inspired by travel and art, blending treasures discovered around the world with precious materials. 
The LOVE HANDLES collection celebrates the warmth and emotion of holding love close. Its signature heart-shaped handle was inspired by a heart-shaped door knocker Villa encountered while traveling. A door knocker is the first object a visitor touches upon arriving at a home—an element that announces one’s presence while symbolizing protection and good fortune. Villa was captivated by the idea that such a simple object could also “open the door to the heart.”
A yellow gold heart set with citrine swings from a pear-shaped diamond. The pendant, edged in vivid blue enamel, hangs from a rope chain, while the warm golden-yellow radiance of the citrine brings a brilliant touch of elegance to the neckline.
