About the Item

Victoria Strigini (b. 1991) A contemporary 18k yellow gold pendant necklace featuring a Roman jasper intaglio from the 2nd – 3rd century AD depicting a Capricorn and two dolphins. The animals, symbols of good luck, are gracefully incised in deep red jasper, a stone that presents no transparency, further highlighting the intricacies of the carving. The ancient intaglio is set in a striking oval modern mount with a thick bezel, in 18k gold with a brushed finish, handcrafted in the designer's Mayfair workshop. Shown with a 16" 18k gold Omega chain; other chains available upon request. Each of the designer’s pieces is unique and handcrafted in her London workshop. Victoria Strigini is a French-born, London-based jewelry designer. Her work reimagines Greek and Roman antiquities for the present, setting rare intaglios, cameos, and coins in bold, Minimalist mounts with pure and subtle lines. Her jewelry presents striking contrasts while highlighting the timelessness of century-old objects. “Classical gemstones have survived for more than 2,000 years—that alone is magical,” Strigini says. “Imagining all of the hands they've passed through and then owning one of these treasures essentially inserts you into its history. It’s like a never-ending story.” Strigini’s work resolves contradiction: between the history of the unique artifacts and the modern settings she creates for them. Between the hand-hewn detailing of the carvings, and linear mounts stripped to their essence. Between the emotional underpinnings of the stones and the rigor of their 18k gold frames. With an appreciation for jewelry’s past and an understanding of its future as necessarily sustainable, Strigini reclaims history and embraces eco-responsibility. Fashioned from recycled gemstones and gold by highly skilled London-based artisans, her jewelry harnesses centennial traditions of craftsmanship in service of a strong modern vision, to create responsibly and wear with grace 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. Unique piece. Handcrafted in Mayfair, London. Approximate measurements: H 15mm, H 23mm including jump ring x W 19mm, 3mm gold border, 3.5mm thick. 16" Omega chain. Other chains available upon request. Custom pieces can be created upon request.
