Description from the seller
Handcrafted Artisan Necklace with Natural Pink Coral Pendant Hand-engraved – Medusa – 925 Silver Plated Gold
Refined artisanal necklace crafted in Torre del Greco, a city worldwide renowned as the leading Italian center for coral processing and cameo engraving.
The pendant is carved from a single branch of authentic Natural Pink Coral and is entirely hand-engraved by master artisans. The subject depicts the Medusa, one of the most fascinating figures in Greek mythology, symbolizing protection, strength and transformation. Since ancient times its visage has been used as an emblem capable of repelling negative energies and protecting the wearer.
The setting in 925 Silver plated with yellow gold enhances the warm tones of the coral and completes the jewelry with elegance, keeping the maximum emphasis on the engraving.
Each piece is unique. The natural veins of the coral and the completely hand-engraved craftsmanship make it impossible to produce two perfectly identical pieces.
Characteristics
• Material: Natural Pink Coral, hand-engraved
• Subject: Medusa
• Setting: 925 Silver plated with yellow gold
• Pendant measurements: approximately 3.5 × 2.5 × 2 cm
• Total weight: approximately 15 grams
• Origin: Torre del Greco – Italy
• Craftsmanship: Entirely artisanal
Artisanal Craftsmanship
This jewelry piece is born in Torre del Greco, where the art of coral engraving has been handed down through generations. Each stage of the work is done manually: from selecting the coral branch to the engraving, which requires experience, precision and many hours of labor.
The natural characteristics of the coral make each creation different from the others, giving the jewelry a high artisanal and collectible value.
Packaging and Shipping
The necklace will be delivered in an elegant gift box, carefully packed to ensure maximum protection during transport.
Fast, tracked, and insured shipping with SDA or UPS courier.
It is advisable to check the shipment tracking. In case the recipient is unavailable, the package may be left at a pickup point; if not collected, it will be returned to the sender.
If bidding on multiple lots, please select combined shipping at checkout. If payments are made separately, the lots will be shipped individually and shipping costs cannot be refunded.
Bidders should be aware that in some countries the importation of natural materials such as coral may be subject to restrictions. By participating in the auction, the buyer declares that they are aware of the regulations in force in their country.
Seller's Story
My creations are born at the heart of Italy’s artisanal tradition in Torre del Greco, a world-renowned symbol for coral processing and cameo carving.
Each piece of jewelry is the result of knowledge handed down through generations: the coral is carefully selected, the cameo hand-carved by master artisans, every detail refined according to techniques that belong to the history of Mediterranean jewelry art.
I believe in authenticity, in natural materials and in the value of manual work. For this reason I offer only pieces that embody identity, culture and passion, pure expressions of Italian excellence.
Each object is not just a piece of jewelry, but a fragment of tradition that continues to live on through time.
