Épingle d’Amour Mckella Necklace

A golden safety pin—molten 18k gold-plated stainless steel—pierces a single freshwater pearl like a secret vow, while an open heart clasp drifts opposite, its outline polished to liquid light. This asymmetrical design is a masterclass in the "tough love" aesthetic, balancing industrial grit with romantic softness. The safety pin, traditionally a symbol of makeshift repair or punk rebellion, is elevated here into a sleek, structural bar that anchors the organic, milky luster of the solitaire pearl.

Connecting these motifs is a robust Cuban chain, chosen for its flattened, interlocking links that lie flush against the skin like urban armor. This heavier weight contrasts with the delicate, negative space of the open heart element, creating a dynamic visual tension. The chain breathes with quiet defiance, each link catching fugitive gleams like sunlight on a whispered rebellion. Edgy yet tender, this pendant duet is devotion distilled into radiance, a love note worn close to the heart, perfect for the woman whose style is as complex and multi-faceted as her emotions.
