LARGE NANTUCKET SCRIMSHAW HEART PENDANT WITH DIAMONDS


Inspired by the sailor-made ivory needle holders from the Nantucket and New Bedford Whaling Museums, this heart necklace is full of whimsy! With diamonds set in the holes that would have allowed a woman to sew it to her smock, it evokes a bygone era with a modern twist.
