For those who adore Heidi Daus jewelry, plus pendants with a modern twist, this never worn To the Hamptons with Love Drop Necklace fits you to an absolute T. In Mint Never Worn Vintage Condition, its original paper hang tag is still attached. The pendant is tortoise shell color, with aurora borealis faceted inset Swarovski crystals. Stunning in its style, this pendant hangs from a gold tone metal chain, with a bail that is a miniature closed version of the pendant.
Double signed, the HEIDI DAUS block signature logo is on the back side of the bail. It is also on the toggle clasp, as shown in the photos.
Notice that the back side of the pendant also features the inset Swarovski crystals, just like the front side. How many designers these days would go to that level of detail? Heidi Daus would and did!
Swarovski crystals also accent the toggle back clasp at both the open circle of the clasp, plus each end of the pull through portion. That detail is yet another designer feature from Heidi Daus, with even her clasps decorated despite the fact only the wearer may ever see that to appreciate it.
Sizes of each component are:
Bail is 3/4 by 1/2 inch and is 1/4 inch thick
Pendant is 2 and 1/8 by 1 and 1/2 inch and is 1/8 inch thick
Chain length is 17 inches on each side, for a total length of 34 inches
Center drop is 20 and 1/2 inches total, including the pendant
The weight of this pendant necklace is 4. 7 ounces
From my research I find that this pendant necklace was originally made and sold by Heidi Daus in 4 color variations; black, pastel turquoise, faux abalone and this tortoise color. This listing is for the faux tortoise shell pendant version. I also have the black version which will be sold in another listing. Like this one, the original owner never wore the black pendant.
As you can see in the photos, this is a spectacular pendant, one you will love to own and wear when you want to make a stylish statement.
The metal is completely untarnished and is in wonderful condition on the front and back sides.
All of the inset Swarovski faceted crystals are intact and remain shiny.
When I purchased this pendant the original owner had a personal collection of Heidi Daus necklaces, necklace sets, hinged bracelets and rings that she had purchased and worn over the years. Her family sold them all to me in an Estate Sale. I will be researching, photographing and listing these items over time.
I do not have the original box in which this was sold. However I will package it in a jewelry box for shipment to the new owner.
