Vintage Links of London Sterling Silver Puffed Heart Necklace

This vintage Links of London Puffed Heart necklace is formed around the original Puffed Heart charm, one of the house’s most restrained and recognisable heart designs. Crafted in sterling silver, the heart is shaped with a softly domed, rounded profile that relies on volume and proportion rather than engraving or embellishment. The result is a clean sculptural form, with enough depth to give the piece presence while keeping the overall silhouette balanced and easy to wear.

The heart measures approximately 14mm in height, 16mm in height including the jump ring, and approximately 7mm in thickness. Its fully rounded construction gives the necklace a more dimensional character than a flatter heart motif, allowing the surface to catch the light across its curved form. The charm is fitted with the standard Links of London oval bail measuring approximately 9mm by 7mm, suitable for chains or bracelets up to approximately 5mm wide.

The necklace is fitted with a 2mm wide sterling silver oval link chain and a 5mm diameter bolt ring clasp. Because the charm is attached through the clasp, it may be removed, changed or worn with other compatible charms if desired. That gives the piece the presence of a finished necklace while retaining the flexibility associated with Links of London charm jewellery.

This example is crafted in sterling silver and hallmarked with the LL sponsor’s mark, 925, full UK assay marks, and a date letter for 2010. The hallmark year reflects the year of assay rather than the original introduction of the design. The charm has been professionally cleaned and polished and remains in excellent vintage condition, with a bright, even surface finish and no dents or structural damage.

Worn as a necklace, the Puffed Heart takes on a slightly different character from its bracelet form. Its rounded volume gives it a more pendant-led presence, while the simplicity of the design allows the silver itself to remain the focus. The result is a finished necklace that feels calm, polished and enduring, preserving the symbolic clarity of the heart while expressing it through proportion rather than ornament.

Supplied with a split ring for Sweetie bracelet compatibility, this necklace preserves the versatility of the original charm while offering an elegant way to wear it at the neck. A choice of chain lengths is available when ordering.
