Garlic andamp; Pepper Talisman Necklace

Ref No: IT005/20070

Design: Rossella Ugolini is an award-winning Italian jewellery designer. She spent her childhood in the garden of wonders of her grandfather's city-cottage. He was an engineer but also an inventor. There she learned to look at details with curiosity and imagination. Today she owes to her training the ability to shape ideas through gold and precious stones. With her work she tries to give back, in another form, the beautiful things that she has been lucky enough to admire. She uses her goldsmith's lens to observe the history and beauty of Italy but also to go beyond places and things and discover the less visible charm of the soul and thoughts.

Style Notes: In some areas of Italy, you can spot hanging garlic and peppers used as amulets. They are symbols of luck and health and can protect you against evil eye and gossip. The traditional colours of white coral and red enamel are used to translate the concept into the jewelry.

Price: Please note price may vary due to exchange rate differences or shipping, duties and taxes. Final price is calculated at checkout at the designer's website.

Materials: Sterling silver with eco coral and red enamel. The eco coral is reconstituted in laboratory in order to safeguard the natural species.
