My heart to you is given:

Oh, do give yours to me;

We’ll lock them up together,

And throw away the key.

True love means giving your heart to someone for keeps and heart rings that are adorned with diamonds are stunning pictures of the way that you and the one you love give yourselves to each other. As they sparkle with the most brilliant and resilient of gemstones, they declare that the bond that the two of you share is lasting and beautiful.

The 3/4 Carat Heart Shaped Diamond Ring is a unique twist on the classic solitaire that instantly communicates a message of affection. Instead of a classic round stone or a princess-cut diamond, this single-stone style features a dazzling ¾ carat heart-shaped diamond that rises simply and beautifully from the gleaming 14K white gold band that holds it. This ring is a sweet and feminine declaration of love that’s perfect for popping the question. It’s also available in 14K yellow gold, 14K rose gold and in combination with a matching wedding band, as part of a lovely bridal ring set.

Heart-shaped diamonds aren’t the only way to work the symbol of love into a diamond ring. If you’d rather a piece that works hearts into the band, don’t miss the 1 Carat Diamond Heart Engagement Ring in 14K White Gold. The band of this romantic ring is adorned with smooth, three-dimensional carved hearts that are nestled side by side as if to trying the squeeze the maximum amount of affection into a small space. Clean lines of 14K white gold frame these hearts, while a stunning round 1 carat diamond presides over this style with dazzling glamour.

If you’d prefer similar style that contrasts two colors of gold, try the Diamond Heart 1 Carat Engagement Ring in 14K Two-Tone Gold. This striking piece coordinates with any jewelry collection as its yellow gold hearts stand out against a white gold backdrop.

Of course, diamond heart rings aren’t just for popping the question. They can also serve as striking statements of both style and affection, and Apples of Gold carries designs ranging from demure to daring. If your tastes run more to the daring side, consider the 0.75 Carat Diamond Pave Heart Ring! This can’t-miss-it piece is adorned with dozens of small diamonds that encrust a white gold heart, just over a half inch high. With its multi-faceted glitter, this ring creates a picture of the way that the one you love sets your heart on fire.

Diamond rings that utilize hearts leave no question about how you feel about your one special someone. When you use one to pop the question or simply to show your affection, you demonstrate that your heart is spoken for.

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in

my heart) i am never without it (anywhere

i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done

by only me is your doing, my darling)

Cummings perfectly captured the connection that holds two people together no matter how far apart they are. In the last line, he calls it “the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart,” and this wonder is gorgeously captured in by the sparkling beauty of diamond heart pendants.

Heart pendants are timeless ways to say “I love you,” and when they’re accented with dazzling diamonds, their message is magnified. On Valentine’s Day—or any day—these pieces are gorgeous ways to tell that special someone that you always carry a piece of their heart with you.

The Double Heart Pendant in 14K Yellow Gold is a striking way to celebrate that your heart is inextricably connected with the heart of that special someone. This dazzling pendant uses an illusion setting to multiply sparkle, making it appear that it contains a wealth of stones, and allowing it to serve as a dazzling reminder of your love. A diamond-covered heart interlocks with a smaller, highly-polished 14K gold heart, providing a beautiful picture of the connection you share.

Love involves embracing your differences and the ways that the things that make each of you unique can work together to allow you to complement one another. The 14K Two-Tone Gold Diamond Heart Pendant is a striking picture of the way that two different elements can work in harmony to create a unified object of beauty. A diamond-accented 14K white gold heart is hugged by half of a gleaming 14K yellow gold heart to create the perfect pairing of warm and cool, sparkle and shine. These two elements curve in unison, creating a look that emulates grace.

The 7 Stone Diamond Heart Pendant in 14K White Gold provides yet another graceful symbol of two hearts beating as one. This lighthearted contemporary piece accents an asymmetrical, curling outline of a heart with 0.12 carats of diamonds. While this pendant is petite at a half-inch high, its combination of sparkling stones and shining 14K white gold is sure to communicate your love. An 18” 14K white gold chain is included, making this piece perfect for giving the instant you receive it. And, if you prefer, this pretty pendant is also available as part of a four-piece jewelry set that includes a matching ring and pair of earrings.

Heart jewelry such as these diamond heart pendants are surefire ways to express your love on Valentine’s Day or any day. Try one of these sparkling, meaningful pieces to tell that special someone that you always carry a piece of their heart with you.

Heart pendants that represent the connection between two people are a lovely way to communicate your affection, and several of the pieces in Apples of Gold’s collection use interlocking hearts to create a picture of that bond. For instance, the Double Heart Pendant in 14K Yellow Gold links two hearts, a larger one glittering with diamonds (a symbol of the lasting nature of true love) and smaller one of solid 14k yellow gold. These two hearts, though different, work in perfect harmony to create a stylish pendant that’s a picture of the way that two people in a loving relationship complement one another.

Hearts showed up in a number of pieces inspired by the past, including the Vintage Filigree Garnet Heart Ring in 14K White Gold. This piece is clearly inspired by the Victorian Era, but it’s also a fitting symbol of love for the present. A sizeable heart of garnet is embraced by a lavishly-adorned setting of white gold. Lively but delicate filigree forms a pattern of swirls that surrounds this gem, while meticulously-carved flowers and ribbons give the band a big dose of feminine charm.

There are few places more fitting for hearts than wedding jewelry, and heart motifs have made their mark on both engagement rings and wedding bands. For those seeking a modern adaptation of a time-honored symbol, the Irish Celtic Heart Love Knot Wedding Band could be the perfect fit. A heart-shaped Celtic knot (a motif which many have used as a symbol of eternity) is etched in green in a seamless circle around this flat, contemporary band. Crafted from sleek, incredibly strong titanium, this ring is a picture of the fortitude of love and of its endless nature.

Jewelry that utilizes hearts and crosses combines two meaningful symbols, creating pictures of Christ’s ultimate demonstration of love. For instance, the Cross and Heart Diamond Pendant in 14K White Gold uses these two emblems to form a graceful and meaningful pendant. A simple, shining 14K white gold cross is surrounded by a sweeping heart like a warm embrace. Eight round channel-set diamonds accent this heart, adding sparkle that’s sure to draw eyes to this beautiful statement of Christ’s everlasting love—the love demonstrated when He gave His life for all people on the cross.

Whether you’re looking for a tender expression of affection, a sparkling declaration of faith or a symbol of the strength of your love, there’s a piece of heart jewelry that’s a perfect fit. And, since expressing love never goes out of fashion, these pieces will always be in good taste.
