Carrera y Carrera Romeo & Juliet Heart Pendant Necklace 18k Gold

This romantic heart necklace is the perfect companion to the matching earrings, showcasing Carrera y Carrera’s unmistakable sculptural artistry in a more intimate, wearable form. The pendant features the iconic lovers’ embrace rendered in softly contoured, high-relief gold, framed within a gently rounded heart. The modeling is rich yet refined, with delicately detailed hair, facial features, and negative space that bring the figures to life.

True to the house’s design philosophy, the pendant displays the same nuanced contrast between satin-finished surfaces and bright polished borders for which Carrera y Carrera is renowned. This interplay of textures enhances the depth of the sculptural scene while maintaining an elegant, luminous presence on the neckline. The proportions are well balanced, allowing the pendant to sit gracefully without overwhelming, whether worn alone or layered.

Founded in Madrid, Carrera y Carrera became internationally celebrated for elevating gold into a sculptural medium inspired by classical art, romance, and human form. Pieces from the 1990s, such as this necklace, represent a mature period of the brand’s aesthetic—bold yet poetic, technically precise yet emotionally expressive.

The necklace is finished with the firm’s signature lobster clasp and bears a serial number, underscoring its authenticity and collectible appeal.

Excellent overall condition, with beautifully preserved satin and bright finishes consistent with Carrera y Carrera’s high standards of craftsmanship
