Vintage Retired Platinum Diamond Heart Necklace by Angela Cummings, Designer Signed Piece
This is an epic vintage platinum diamond heart charm necklace by designer Angela Cummings. The flowing and smooth contours of the heart-shaped pendant finish as an abstract tangling knot, which is a deep and romantic symbol of love and connection.
What's more? Both tips of the knot are charmingly accented with two sparkly high quality round brilliant cut diamonds (approx 2mm each). The back of the pendant is signed "Cummings Plat @ 2003" The heart charm pendant is hung on its original 18-inch platinum chain. Chain has approx. 1.5mm link width.
About the designer: Angela Cummings joined Tiffany & Co. in 1967, and eight years later designed her own collection for the renowned store under her name, which was a notable achievement; at the time, Tiffany had very few name-brand designers whose work was sold in the store. Palmona Picasso, Jean Schlumberger, and Elsa Peretti are among those few who enjoyed this esteemed honor. In 1984, she left Tiffany and opened her own boutique diagonally opposite Tiffany in Bergdorf Goodman, and soon her work was sold in numerous prestigious boutiques around the country. She has a very loyal following and is collected by her faithful devotees, especially as her production is now quite small. She closed her shop in 2003; this piece is signed from her final year 2003.
