About Sassi Fine Jewellery

The story of Sassi - (gem)stones in Italian - begins with a gem, an aquamarine hidden in Renilde's jewellery case. This stone was bought years earlier for Hannah, who wanted to know her birthstone. When Hannah turned eighteen, her mother designed a necklace, inspired by a Roman piece, featuring the aquamarine with a contemporary twist. Both Hannah and Renilde were delighted with the gold necklace, and the workshop that crafted it was thrilled! They invited Renilde to create more pieces. Thus, Sassi was born.

Sassi Fine Jewellery Secret of Berenice, Amethyst-Peridot Back to Front Earrings
Located in La Tour-De-Peilz, CH
Introducing our versatile "back to front" earrings, designed for the modern woman seeking both style and flexibility. These earrings feature two exquisite stones, a Peridot and an Amethyst, allowing you to adorn yourself with the elegant combination of both gems or simply wear the Peridot studs. The backside of the earrings with the Amethyst can be adjusted for a perfect and comfortable fit, ensuring a seamless experience. These earrings are made to order, so please allow us 4 to 8 weeks production time. Part of our captivating Secret of Berenice collection, these earrings showcase the harmonious union of Amethysts and Peridots, beautifully set in lustrous yellow gold. Drawing inspiration from the historical accounts of Queen Berenice of Egypt, who was renowned as the first woman to embrace the Peridot, these earrings hold a captivating story. It is said that Queen Berenice discovered the unique trait of the Peridot, its ability to retain its vibrant lime-green hue even in artificial light, distinguishing it from other green gems such as emeralds. This secret, it seems, she kept to herself. The pairing of Peridot with Amethyst in these earrings finds its origins in a regal necklace discovered in Egypt, dating back to the first century. This combination not only exhibits a perfect colour contrast but also symbolises royalty, as purple was a colour exclusively reserved for monarchs. The entire Secret of Berenice collection draws inspiration from this ancient necklace...

More About Sassi Fine Jewellery

Renilde identifies with her clients, cultured, confident and smart women who know what they want. “When you buy jewellery for yourself, it has to reflect who you are. You want to wear your pieces every day because it is a shame to lock them away in a safe.” Versatile and eye-catching, Sassi jewellery can be combined and worn in different ways for a look that is stylish yet always comfortable, glamorous yet accessible.

Each piece is meticulously researched. Renilde loves the stories behind the art, the history, the gemstones. She extracts the essence and inserts this in her unique and timeless creations to retell the story. “It is very important for a piece of jewellery to have history, to have a soul. Our contemporary designs are rooted in history – each piece a timeless re-interpretation of traditional forms in jewellery, art or architecture.¨

Yet, the design process is not concluded until Hannah provides her perspective. It is through this collaborative process that Sassi jewellery often evolves into modern heirlooms—pieces that resonate with our clients, establishing a profound connection between mothers and daughters.

Excellent craftsmanship is at the heart of Sassi. Every piece of Sassi jewellery is handcrafted by master-goldsmiths in 18 karat gold, using millennia-old techniques, such as lost-wax casting. The pristine gemstones are hand-cut to fit our creations. Sassi jewellery, designed with the comfort of the wearer in mind, comes in handy leather, hand-made travel pouches that slip easily into a handbag or a suitcase, for every-day luxury.

The Secret of Berenice Collection is inspired by Queen Berenice of Egypt, the first woman to wear a Peridot. She discovered the Peridot's unique quality—its ability to retain its vibrant lime-green colour even under artificial light, setting it apart from other green gems like emeralds. This secret, she kept to herself... Inspired by a necklace from the 1st c. AD we combined the Peridot with Amethyst, a colour reserved only for royalty.
