And More Valentine's Day Vintage Jewelry Hearts

These are from Terri:

The Trifari "sweetheart" pin (also in Marcia Brown's "Signed Beauties" book) -- the acrostic of the "jewel" names of the rhinestones starting at the top right spells "D-E-A-R-E-S-T":


This Barclay charm bracelet isn't just one heart, but it's also a sweetheart piece -- the heart charms are set with rhinestones that spell out DEAREST (start with the "diamond" rhinestone next to the clasp and go counterclockwise):

Still More Valentine's Day Vintage Jewelry Hearts
