MCM Modernist 1950s Hammered Copper Heart Leaf Motif Link Chain Necklace

A bold mid-century modern copper heart necklace, hand-worked with a deeply hammered and blackened surface and finished with an applied sculptural leaf motif. Suspended from a chunky copper chain, this piece has the earthy, expressive quality associated with 1950s studio and artisan jewelry.

Unmarked, as is typical of many mid-century copper works, but clearly crafted with intention and skill.
