21st Century 9 Karat Rose Gold and Diamond Drop-Shape Cesellato Pendant & Chain

About the Item

Understated and elegant, and yet 600-odd years in the making, this rose gold and .925 silver, pear-shaped pendant is produced using an ancient Albanian technique that was brought to Palermo in the fifteenth century. In this piece, carefully selected 3.80-carats of diamonds, each rose-cut with 9 facets, are hand-chiselled into the slightly domed silver top of the pendant, which measures about 33 millimetres long and 17 millimetres across at the widest part of the drop shape (3.3x1.7 cm). The gold chain is 49.40 centimetres long. This collection represents an art form that reflects the rich history of Sicily. In the fifteenth century, Albanian immigrants arrived in Palermo, bringing with them a unique method of jewellery-making which has become known as “cesellato”. Their descendants preserved the method over the next 600-odd years, merging it with new materials, fashions and techniques which arrived following each new invasion of the southern Italian island. What exists today is an ancient method infused with diverse Looking for a set? This collection has several earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets that all work together beautifully.
