The yellow gold pendant, modeled from wax directly on the irregular shape of the boulder opal is clearly a unique piece that depicts a young hybrid body, half human, almost an elf who shelters his head from the sun with a giant leaf, half fish with a tail reminiscent of sea sirens or rather a young merman. A meticulous burin engraving pleasant contrasts on the surface of the metal, further enhancing the innumerable reflections of the opal. A small pendant that contains a particular craftsmanship.

Making jewels with minerals means giving life to something unique every time, the bright colors, the reflections of the crystals, everything takes on a particular charm, a unique suggestion that is given to us by the wonder of our planet. This pendant is made with a mineral called Vesuvian stone, contrary to what its name might suggest, in this case, it does not derive from the Campania region but rather from the Ligurian mountains. I wanted to leave all its beauty visible in that green that emerges from the rock , so I dedicated my work to the most hidden part, the back of the mineral. A Salamander in burnished silver with speckles in yellow gold and eyes in cognac diamonds clings to the mineral as if it wanted to protrude, the graceful amphibian as well as being the applied ornament acts as a structure itself that embeds the mineral, through its head it is possible insert a small yellow gold chain, which allows it to be worn. The result is a piece without equal; since the small animal has been modeled on the irregular shapes of the mineral, it is truly a one-of-a-kind jewel.

The jewel is a tribute to nature, in its forms, among its elements… A young elf in yellow gold plays an ancient tuba, immersed in a heart of blue turquoise that creates the bridge between the water element and the earth element, he himself has hybrid features that in the lower part resemble a marine creature and then culminate with a graceful headdress of hers that connects an earthly one to one side. The intense blue of the mineral evokes the sea but the reference to flowers is then well marked, the pendant has in fact a double aspect that allows it to be worn on both sides, as if to delight the owner of being able to have two jewels in one. While on one side the yellow gold leprechaun is visible playing, almost cradled by a sea wave, on the other there is a set of flowers delicately engraved in bas-relief on the mineral itself, alternating with these stand out gold leaves that derive from a small branch, the same branch that gradually turns into the elf’s headdress on the other side of the jewel. The small hybrid body symbolically combines two dominant elements of nature, all enclosed in the shape of a heart, just as the heart symbolizes the union and love between two people…

This is a typical combination of different techniques used by the goldsmith, combining a first modeling made on wax to obtain the face of the panther, subsequently obtained in metal by lost wax casting and, working the same with the fretwork technique, obtaining a small tulle . In fact, the panther’s cheeks and forehead contain, in a delicate harmony, the tulle, a satin finish obtained by a burin and the light of the diamonds placed in the eyes, together with the fancy ones that adorn the head; from here then winds the soft color dictated by the Angelo Skin coral which gives further refinement to the earrings.
A small white gold bow adorned with a refined burin engraving is the decorative element of these pendant earrings which wind downwards with a small and luminous succession of diamonds, which culminate in a drop of briolet-cut lemon quazo. Elegance, simplicity and beauty in a single jewel.
