What SIGNATURE HEART is
It is a family — a form — not a world and not a catalogue section. Its evolution ran like this: a light heart, as if bent from wire; then the Solid Heart — heavy, fully filled; then the Heart Lock — a classic clasp for a beaded chain, reimagined as SIGNATURE HEART; and a tiny stud, the smallest object in the brand.
A heart in jewellery is almost always made cute. This one is not: the angular half breaks the symmetry, and the object reads as a graphic shape rather than a keepsake. That is why the form lives in the same world as BLADE and THORN, not in a separate romantic corner of the catalogue.
The heart here is not a decorative charm hung on a chain but the load-bearing shape of the object: in the Heart Lock ring it works as the clasp, in the Small Beads bracelet and the choker it closes the bead line, and in an earring it is the body of the piece itself. One form read nine different ways.

The earrings are mono-objects: worn in one ear or collected into a pair, and the listed price is for a single earring. That is a way of wearing, not a footnote — a pair of two different hearts is as intended here as two identical ones.
Who makes these hearts, and how long it takes
STRUGA makes them in a workshop in Bali: master silversmiths cast every object in 925 silver and finish it by hand. Nothing sits in a warehouse — a piece is started after the order is placed, so the lead time is the same across the section: about two weeks in the workshop, then worldwide shipping.
This is the answer that search usually leaves out. A silver heart pendant is sold by dozens of storefronts, but for most of them the maker is not named and neither the weight nor the lead time is stated. Here all three are on the record: who made it, how long the wait is, and what it weighs — the weight of every object is printed on its product page.
Unplated sterling silver 925
Living Silver — a surface with no plating. 925 without rhodium darkens from air and skin: recesses sink into shadow, raised edges are polished back by wear. After a year the object shows how it was worn — the patina is a map of wearing, not damage and not a defect.
If the bright look is wanted back, the patina is reset with a silver cleaning solution and the object starts over. No harsh chemicals, no ultrasonic baths.
What it costs
From $95 to $1,058. The floor is the stud, the ceiling is the beaded choker; between them sit the ring at $160, the Wire Heart necklace at $190 and the heavier earrings. The exact price, weight and length of each object are on its own page and are not to be inferred from this range.
If the reading of the heart you want isn't here, it can be built to a brief through a custom order.
The world of this form: CODEX
A STRUGA family belongs to exactly one world, and for SIGNATURE HEART that world is CODEX — the architectural language the brand speaks every day. Worlds do not nest inside one another; a form does not live in two of them at once, and this heart has no second world, neither LAB nor RITUAL.
An individual piece, however, can join the floating ISLAND ARTIFACTS selection — the Bali cut of the brand. Three of the nine objects here do: the Wire Heart necklace, Solid Heart Small and the Small Wired Heart earring. That is the level of the piece, not the level of the form.
