Heart Telado with Gotinhas White Gold Pendant in 18K Gold

A telado heart in 18K gold with white gold droplets — mesh structure, bicolor accents.

_Telado_ refers to a mesh-textured surface technique — a worked finish that creates a fine grid pattern across the pendant face, catching light differently than smooth polish. Applied to a heart, the technique adds visual texture without breaking the form's outline.

This pendant uses telado mesh across the heart's body in 18K yellow gold, with small droplet shapes — _gotinhas_ — rendered in 18K white gold along the surface. The two-tone contrast separates the droplets from the mesh, the white gold reading as bright accents against the warmer base.

At 2.2 grams, the pendant has the weight of a considered piece. Mesh, droplets, two tones — multiple decisions in one composition.
