This 925 Sterling Silver Pendant Necklace With Heart and Branches 'Heart Victorious' by Independent Artisans is an exquisite piece by Maria del Carmen Vargas. Inspired by life, nature, and her own faith, Maria has created a simple yet powerful design. A high-polish sterling silver heart is elegantly framed by two sets of leaves, which are also reminiscent of delicate wings. The necklace is a testament to her personal journey and her belief that inspiration is all around us. This piece is a beautiful blend of meticulous craftsmanship and timeless symbolism, offering a tangible expression of love and the victorious spirit.
Born in Piura in 1968, this Peruvian designer discovered her love for jewelry at a young age, guided by an aunt who introduced her to the beauty of Andean silver. Life’s challenges, including her father’s battle with cancer, strengthened her resilience and deepened her dedication to her craft. After moving to Cajamarca with her husband, she studied jewelry-making and later pursued specialized courses in Lima to refine her skills. She takes greatest joy in designing her own pieces, though she notes the precision of soldering as the most demanding aspect of the process. Inspired by life, nature, and her faith, she creates silver jewelry that balances elegance with meticulous craftsmanship. Her dream is to see her designs influence fashion trends not only locally but on an international stage, reflecting both her personal journey and the timeless artistry of Peru’s silversmith traditions.
Handcrafted in Peru, this necklace is made from high-polish 925 sterling silver. It features a cable chain and a spring ring clasp. The necklace is 19.8 inches L, with the pendant measuring 0.8 inches L x 2 inches W.
