Heart necklace: Your love, Your style
A heart necklace can carry a personal meaning without needing many words. In our collection, you’ll find heart pendants made from recycled gold that make love, connection, or a memory visible in different ways. Depending on the design, the heart is complemented by a custom letter stamp or a lab-grown diamond.
Designed by jewelry designer Helge Maren, our heart necklaces combine clean shapes with personal details. You can wear them as a sign for someone dear to your heart, link them to a special moment, or give them to yourself with intention.

The heart is one of the symbols whose meaning is understood immediately. As jewelry, it can stand for partnership, family, friendship, or a very personal bond. We explore why heart jewelry has long been given as a sign of affection in our journal about love gifts. A piece of jewelry becomes even more personal when a detail is meant only for you or a specific person. Initials, dates, or small messages can bring memories to life. You can read about the possibilities personalized jewelry gifts offer in our journal about personalized gifts. Our Meet the Maker with EB Lasertechnik also shows how such engravings are crafted. If you want to capture your own message on a suitable piece of jewelry, you can find the options in our 'Only Yours – Engraving Service by Maren Jewellery'.
A heart necklace looks especially clear when the motif has enough room. You can wear it as a single piece of jewellery and consciously place the heart at the center. Or you can echo the shape, metal color, or shine in other pieces of jewellery. You can explore which jewellery color feels right for you in our Journal on gold and silver jewellery. Different metal colors are also welcome to stand side by side. Our bicolor style guide shows how gold and silver can become a personal mix. This keeps the heart as the emotional focus, while the rest of the jewellery complements your style. If you want to take the heart motif further with other types of jewellery, you will find more shapes and designs in our overview of our jewellery pieces.
The heart chains in the collection are made from recycled gold. In gold jewellery, fineness describes the proportion of pure gold in the alloy. We explain what details like 18 karat or 750 mean in our journal on gold alloys. For the A Mindful Love heart, a lab-grown diamond also comes into play. You can learn how lab-grown diamonds are created and how they can be classified in our journal on the production of lab-grown diamonds. The precise setting of a stone is, in turn, a separate craft step. Gemstone setter Julia Kling offers an insight. You can find an overview of gold, silver, and lab-grown diamonds on our page about materials and origin.
