Sputnik Pendant 18k Gold

About the Item

A large 18k gold sputnik pendant / charm set with colored gemstones. Two small illegible hallmarks on the jump. Good condition, no defects Diameter 2 cm (approx) Weight 6.72 grams The launch of Sputnik 1 on October 4, 1957, marked the dawn of the space age and ignited a wave of cosmic fascination. This cultural phenomenon swiftly permeated various art and design forms, including jewelry. Sputnik jewelry emerged as a homage to the excitement and optimism of space exploration. Typically, Sputnik jewelry pieces are crafted as orbs adorned with colorful gems that protrude slightly from the central sphere. This distinctive design captures the essence of the Sputnik satellite, with its spherical body and radiating antennae. The gemstones used in these pieces are often vibrant and varied, enhancing the visual appeal and uniqueness of each piece.
