Noní Filigree Pendant

The Noní Filigree Pendant is a filigreed disc in either gold plate over silver or bleached silver.  The chain pictured is sold on it's on-this is the pendant only.

The delicate filigree work forms an eye-catching disc which can be worn formally or informally. It is a statement piece that feels like a part of the natural environment of the island of Sardinia where it is handmade. 

Wearing this pendant is wearing a piece of Italian culture, history and craftsmanship. The artists who carefully make each piece honor each of our grandmothers as they create this piece. 

They are molded using the lost wax technique and then reworked by hand. This technique is an important part of Italian history and culture. Each piece of jewelry is made honoring the tradition that has been passed down through centuries. 

The art of filigree has been used by Etruscans as early as the 9th Century BC and is now one of the many treasures of the Mediterranean cultural heritage. Similar to metal embroidery, its ornaments are composed of gold threads skilfully intertwined. The various motifs formed by the honeycomb filigree grains recall wheat grains and have a symbolic function: wishes of abundance, prosperity and love. 

Due to these pendants being handmade they can take up to 3 weeks to ship.
