Victoria Strigini: Ancient Roman Bronze Coin in 18k Gold Slice Pendant Necklace

About the Item

Victoria Strigini (b. 1991) A contemporary 18k yellow gold pendant necklace featuring an ancient Roman bronze coin from 364 AD. The classical bronze depicts the Roman emperor Valens (reigned 364 - 378) on the front and a Victory on the reverse. The coin has acquired a beautiful patina, presenting a rich, dark green — almost black — color, highlighting the intricacies of the bas-relief. The ancient piece is set in a striking circular modern mount with a thick bezel, in 18k gold with a high shine finish. Each Victoria Strigini piece is unique and handcrafted in the designer's Mayfair, London workshop. Custom-made pieces are available upon request. Approximate Measurements: 23 mm diameter; 30 mm H including jump ring; 4mm border; 3mm thick. 18k gold Omega chain: 16". Other chains are available upon request. Victoria Strigini is a French-born, London-based jewelry designer. Her work reimagines Greek and Roman antiquities for the present, setting rare intaglios, cameos, coins, and stones in bold, minimalist mounts with pure and subtle lines. Her jewelry presents striking contrasts while highlighting the timelessness of century-old objects. “Beyond their beauty, classical gemstones have survived for more than 2,000 years; that's magical,” Strigini says. “Imagining all of the hands they've passed through and then wearing one of these treasures brings you into its history. It’s a never-ending story that we get to inhabit.” Responsibly fashioned from recycled gemstones and gold by highly skilled London-based artisans, Strigini's jewelry harnesses centennial traditions of craftsmanship in service of a strong modern vision, to create responsibly and wear with strength and ease. The daughter of a painter and the granddaughter of a seamstress, Strigini was raised in a tradition of deep female creativity, learning early on the importance of materials, quality, and ingenuity. After studying art history, she received diplomas in Jewelry Design, CAD, and Diamond Grading from the Gemological Institute of America in New York, before returning to London and founding her eponymous line in 2019. Her work has been featured in Vogue, Madame Figaro, Coveteur, and the Financial Times.
