Brass floral heart necklace on satellite chain
Brass floral heart necklace on satellite chain
The brass heart hangs from an 18 inch antiqued-brass plated satellite chain with a spring ring. The heart, an inch wide and almost an inch long, is richly detailed with an elegant rose pattern. It was antiqued, then polished, to show off the richly carved design.
I first carved this heart in jewelers wax, with tiny sharp tools. Then I had multiple copies cast in brass by a metal worker in the United States.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
This necklace is solid sterling silver, which will tarnish if not regularly cared for. To prevent tarnish, don't let it get sweaty or oily and don't swim in it or wear it in the shower. Clean it with dish soap as needed. When it is clean and dry, rub it gently with the polishing cloth I have enclosed.
If it does tarnish, cleaning it and rubbing it with the cloth will restore its brightness. If it is still darker than you like, especially the chain, I have found that rubbing it gently with a paste of baking soda restores the sparkle. After cleaning it that way, rinse well, dry it well, and give it a final rub with the polishing cloth.
When it is not being worn, storing it out of light in an air tight plastic bag, such as a Zip-loc will help keep it bright. I have included a small bag that you may use.
