Castellani 15kt Gold Amphora Necklace

About the Item

The Amphora is one of the most widely used motifs in Ancient Archeological Jewellery through the Victorian period. The Amphora was a container-vessel-vase-jug-pot that was used to store and or transport oil, water, perfume and grain. The flat bottom on certain amphoras was a way of storing and transporting it upright. Created the same way as in Ancient civilizations, this 15kt gold necklace has 35 flat bottom Amphoras. The back of each Amphora is flat enabling it to fit around the neck laying flat. The braided gold chain that each Amphora is attached is very flexible and comfortable to wear. The tongue and clasp makes it easy to put and to take off. The total length is 16” and the Amphora’s length are .50” ( 40.64 cm Length 15mm Length of each Amphora. The weight of this necklace is 42 grams. The Castellani Double C Logo plate is affixed to the necklace. Castellani’s Jewellery from the 19th Century is in museums: British Museum; Victoria & Albert Museum; Metropolitan Museum of Art; The Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt Museum to name a few); exhibitions as well as in private collections. Fortunato Pio Castellani can be called the "Father of Archeological Revival Jewellery". In the mid 1800's in Rome, Castellani had the entree to visit the Ancient Etruscan ruins. He was able to study these Ancient designs as well as other Ancient Mediterranean civilizations’ jewellery and started to create and re-design under his brand.
