Victoria Strigini: Ancient Roman Intaglio Earrings in 18k Gold and Carnelian

About the Item

Victoria Strigini (b. 1991) An arresting pair of contemporary 18k yellow gold hoop earrings, with a single charm featuring an ancient Roman intaglio from the 2nd – 3rd century AD, in carnelian. The carnelian intaglio, in a bold and luminous orange, is gracefully incised with a hand holding a sheaf of wheat. The scene, which represents abundance and prosperity, is set in a striking 18k gold modern charm, sliced at the front and back to show the intaglio and let light flow through it. The charm is removable. Each Victoria Strigini piece is unique and handcrafted in the designer's Mayfair, London workshop. Custom-made pieces are available upon request. Approximate measurements of Slice Charm: 11.2 mm H x 9.3 mm W x 2.2 mm D. Hoop Size: 14 mm diameter x 2.5 mm thick. 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.
