Rose Heart Legacy Necklace

Rose Heart Legacy

Rose Heart Legacy is a convertible necklace that can also be worn as a brooch. The pendant shows a white rose set with diamonds and a red ruby, chosen to represent purity and passion. The leaves are sculpted from 18 karat white gold. A small heartbeat sensor is placed behind the rose and detects the pulse of the wearer when the piece rests against the skin. The sensor is powered by a replaceable micro battery. The design joins traditional jewelry craft with miniaturized electronics.

Rose Heart Legacy Necklace by Maryam Kordahmadi has been featured as an innovative example of fashion design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Rose Heart Legacy Necklace earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Jewelry Design in 2025. The A' Jewelry Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design prize which rewards excellent design of rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, cufflinks, anklets and more.
