Who's got an Elsa Peretti open heart necklace?

Thanks! I think you can since you can pull off the rubedo interlocking circles pendant, which I thought was too flashy for me!

The funny thing about this is that I actually ended up finding that pendant to be too flashy on me as well. I returned it and got the open heart. It was a great design but just not the right size for something that I would wear long term. Also it kept turning over and that horrible stamp on the back of the Rubedo ring that says "metal" would show and twice people commented on it saying "so why does it say metal?". After that I knew it had to go back and that I should just stick to gold and silver.
 
I have the small platinum heart. Love it. My FI gave it to me for my birthday several years ago. I sent him an email with a bunch of links to Tiffany necklaces that I liked and that was the one he picked.

It is my every day necklace! It is so comfy, I actually forget I'm wearing and I don't really ever take it off - unless I'm switching to a different necklace for a while.

Oh ha ha, I did the same thing this year and have a feeling I am getting the platinum one that is covered in pave.
 
Thought I'd bring some life back to this old thread by posting some pics of my new YG open heart. The SS one was my very first Tiffany piece and has started what now is a quite an addiction.

Here it is next to my original SS open heart (purchased 3yrs ago). The design is still exactly the same. It's interesting to see how the light reflects differently on the different metals. That's what I love most about the Peretti designs. They really highlight the great materials (precious metals or stones) that they are made of.

I have been seriously craving something in rose gold but bought it in yellow gold because I thought the color might suit my skin tone better. Any opinions on the color would be appreciated as I can't seem to stop second guessing myself. Should I stick to YG for this piece? I love it either way but I just can't make up my mind.

I have the same necklace in sterling silver and yellow gold! I love them!!! I might have to steal your pic of the two side by side... I could not have photographed it better!
 
Here is my YG in the medium, I have had it for quite a long time, and it came
on a long chain when I got it. I wear it on the short chain more now.
Another I Phone pic!

My DH got it for me about 10 years ago, did Tiffany make a large? If so,
maybe mine is not a medium, it measures between 1 l/4 and 1/ l/2 in. in
diameter and originally came on a 30 inch chain.

I seem to remember them making an extra small, small, medium A, medium B and large size before. Yours is beautiful. How long have you had it? The heart design looks slightly different but still the same concept as the one I just got.
 
DH got it at Tiffany about 10-12 years ago, and it came on the 30 in. chain.
I have recently rediscovered my treasure after being inspired by seeing all your lovely
pendants! So I hung it on a short chain, I am thinking it looks too big to wear on the
short chain! I checked the back and it just says Tiffany & Co Peretti 750 and Spain. No size
listed, but it seems to be the large. What do you ladies think.....too big to wear on a
short chain??
