About the Item

14k Yellow Gold Hand-Etched, Large ALCHEMY Pendant by Viviana Langhoff 14K Yellow Gold pendant on a 16" 1mm chain with .15ctw black and white diamonds surrounded by hand engraved milgrain details. The Astrolabe collection by Chicago based fine jewelry desginer Viviana Langhoff features celestial treasures in rich high polished 14k yellow gold set with a galaxy of black, white, and champagne diamond stars. Etched star paths and serpentine lines are meticulously hand-worked into each piece. — Viviana Langhoff’s work is centered on the idea of heirloom. “History and storytelling are all often focused around objects; I’ve always wanted to design, craft, and make that heritage beautiful.” Viviana established her point of view in the realm of fine jewelry after studying conceptual design at the School of the Art Institute. She continued her education in metalsmithing at Columbia College while simultaneously working under both fine jewelers and contemporary art jewelry makers. She’s now been working in design under her own name for over 10 years, creating custom fine jewelry, interiors, and decorative objects. Viviana is known for her intricate metalwork, modern bridal styles, and one-of-a-kind pieces featuring unexpected hues, antique stones, and historical reference. Borrowing from the worlds of fine art, cultural adornment, and design, her custom work appeals to the expressive and open-minded individual— those who value individuality, creative collaboration, and are unafraid to stand out. — The Astrolabe collection is a reflection of the cosmos, and each piece is a glimmering facet of the universe. Viewing the collection as a whole is to witness a map of the stars unfolding. The sacred geometry implied between each elegant curve and carefully placed diamond is enhanced even more by the shapes refracted by light passing through and reflecting on top of each stone. The work aims to elicit that same majestic awe you receive when gazing up at the night sky, illuminated by the moon and stars. I want the wearer to feel connected to the cosmos. I want them to feel as they are a piece of the whole- an element of something magical that permits them to be a significant part of the story of the universe as it unfolds- a composer, an alchemist, a catcher of heavenly bodies. The Astrolabe is just that, A mariner’s attempt to capture the universe and instrumentalize a series of shifting plates- not just to understand the cosmos, but to understand their location in relation to it. The Astrolabe collection features celestial treasures in rich high polished 14k yellow gold set with a galaxy of black, white, and champagne diamond stars. Etched star paths and serpentine lines are meticulously hand-worked into each piece. Center stone rings feature gray diamonds & spinel, each stone is unique with its own inclusions that emulate the appearance of a galaxy within. — This piece is part of the NYCJW HERE WE ARE Marketplace.
