A universal symbol of love, the heart has held meaning for centuries. In pagan and early Christian eras, it was thought to be the center of emotion. To the Victorians, the heart symbolized love, courage, and intelligence. Now when one bestows a heart to another, the message of "I give my heart to you" is unmistakable. All of these pendants communicate that sentiment beautifully.

The most coveted of all heart jewelry, diamond heart pendants are available in many different styles and several kinds of metal. The diamond outline of a heart is especially stylish, although some favor pave hearts, with diamonds on one or both sides. Diamond hearts in combination with other stones are also eye-catching.
