A bold and sculptural example of vintage fine jewelry, this 18K gold pendant reflects the rich textures and forms of Etruscan Revival design. Crafted in the 1970s, the piece draws inspiration from ancient adornment, reinterpreted through detailed metalwork and vibrant natural stones.
The pendant features an architectural, dimensional form adorned with intricate filigree and granulation.
Set throughout are cabochon-cut carnelian and aventurine stones, offering a striking contrast between warm, earthy red and soft, luminous green. Aventurine’s subtle shimmer adds depth and visual interest, complementing the richness of the high-karat gold.
Substantial yet wearable, this piece stands apart as both jewelry and object—designed to be noticed and appreciated.
