The pendant is set with four cabochon-cut stones, comprising two green and two red stones, mounted in decorative crown-style settings around the central body. Its distinctive architectural shape, elegant proportions and fine goldsmithing make it a charming example of mid-20th-century Italian jewelry design. The warm tone of the gold beautifully complements the rich colours of the stones, creating a striking and highly wearable piece.
