This pendant combines the archaic power of mythology with the contemporary sensibility of handmade jewelry. The figure engraved on the stone depicts a masculine face with a classical profile, evoking deities of light, harmony and heroism-a reference to Aeneas or other figures in the Greek pantheon who embody beauty, creative energy and protection. To wear it is to carry a symbol of inner strength, balance and protection.
The stone on which the face is carved is lava stone, a material born of fire and the movement of the earth. Each piece is unrepeatable because it is shaped by natural processes: veining, porosity and shading are unique and make the workmanship particularly complex. Carving lava stone requires precision and patience because its texture can vary even within the same small surface. This very uniqueness, however, gives it a powerful and authentic character that is impossible to replicate.
The 18 kt rose gold setting is tailored to embrace the stone and enhance its natural forms. Subtle claws follow the edge as a gesture of care, leaving the stone free to tell its story. A small brilliant-cut diamond is set in the eye of the figure.
The elegant and durable loop is wide enough to allow the pendant to be worn on either a chain or a choker, so it can adapt to different styles and interpretations. A unique piece that combines earth, fire, myth and light in one creation.
