Piece of the Week: Yvonne Léon’s Heart Band
The colorful jewel is a perfect Valentine’s Day gift.

Colorful French fine jewelry brand Yvonne Léon excels in interpreting sweet, childlike motifs through a throwback vintage jewelry lens. Think textured 1980s power lunch hoops and diamond and gemstone pavé power pinky rings.
The collection has something for the silly (a single dangling crab earring) and the sophisticate.
This “Piece of the Week” is halfway between the two, mixing a classic, vintage feel with colorful fun that’s more of the moment.
Crafted in the brand’s signature 9-karat yellow gold and depicting a heart shape in profile, the ring features intermixed row of turquoise enamel and gray diamonds.
Scoop it up in time for Valentine’s Day on the brand’s website, where it sells for approximately $1,628.
