In the mysterious alleyways of an old Italian town, perhaps hidden among the rolling hills of Tuscany, a small masterpiece of the goldsmith's art was once born in the 1950/60s. This vintage necklace, made from precious 585 yellow gold, carries the soul of a bygone era. Its centrepiece is a cross pendant, artfully designed as a passion cross that captivates not only the eyes but also the heart of the beholder.
The luminous blue topazes, five in number, shine in a deep, almost hypnotic blue that is reminiscent of the vastness of the Mediterranean. Each of these gemstones is emerald-cut, with bevelled ends that refract the light in fascinating facets. They seem to embrace the cross, lending it strength and grace, as if they were created for precisely this purpose.
A sparkling zircon is enthroned in the centre of this precious cross, set in a round bezel setting. Its lustre is so pure that it reflects the light in all directions, like a star shining in the darkness of the night. It is as if this zircon symbolises the eternal light of hope that shines above everything.
This magnificent composition hangs from a Venetian chain in 585 yellow gold, which elegantly completes the ensemble. The spring ring clasp, simple and reliable, testifies to the craftsmanship and attention to detail with which this piece of jewellery was made.
