Silver Heart Charms
April 19th, 2010, Posted in charm bracelets, Jewelry, UncategorizedDangling gently from a thin metal chain is a small ornament, simple in design but drawing attention all the same. It is a heart-shaped pendant, made from precious silver.
These silver heart charms are the perfect complement to any outfit; with their simple yet elegant design, they accentuate without being overbearing or flashy.
The pendants come in a variety of sizes and designs, but all hold one unique thing in common: they are formed in the shape of a heart, the everlasting symbol of love and faithfulness. Just like other examples of heart jewelry, they are a clear representation of the feelings that one person has for another.
Gold metal is often a popular choice, but silver holds its own niche in the market. With a smooth elegance that quietly asserts itself, silver charms stand out both in formal and casual wear. They can be found on an assortment of accessories, the most common being bracelets or necklaces, as well as earrings or even key chains.
The availability of designs are nearly limitless; anything from a simple silver charm to exquisite scroll-work and carved designs, with precious stones as accents. A trendy design that is most often seen is a heart-shaped locket. This heart-warming charm is hollow inside, with a tiny clasp that can be opened to reveal the touching memento within. It can be a memorable picture of loved ones such as children or a spouse, or sometimes a lock of hair, such as from a baby’s first haircut, to remember the occasion by. Occasionally the lady’s name, or some other word (“love,” and “hope,” are two examples), is inscribed on the charm in a gentle, curving font.
Whether worn on a thin chain around the neck or on the wrist, silver heart charms are a lovely addition to accessorize any outfit. Blending in with the rest of the attire, they still manage to stand out enough to catch the eye. Casual outing or formal dinner: there are few events that cannot stand such a beautiful complement.
