These pieces are often very rare and precious and typically have a lot of history associated with them because of their age.
This style of pendant was popular in Belgium from the late 18th to the mid-nineteenth centuries. They are known as 'à la Jeannette.' A croix à la Jeanette (French for "cross in the style of Jeanette") is a heart-shaped pendant with a latin cross suspended from it.

This 18K yellow and red gold Georgian pendant from 1820 features filigree frills that lead you through a heart-shaped surmount and a twofold Latin cross depicted by four senailles in a domed foil setting. The senaille-embellished roses and petals scattered over the ethereal curls of this traditional Belgian adornment, known as a croix "à la Jeanette," exude heritage and romance.
