Description from the seller
Handmade Artisanal Necklace with Natural Pink Coral Pendant Hand-Engraved – Medusa – 925 Silver Plated in Gold
Refined artisanal necklace crafted in Torre del Greco, a city globally recognized as the principal 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 her face has been used as an emblem capable of repelling negative energies and protecting the wearer.
The mount in 925 silver plated in yellow gold enhances the warm tones of the coral and completes the jewelry with elegance, ensuring the focus remains on the engraving.
Each piece is unique. The natural veining of the coral and the completely handmade engraving make it impossible to produce two perfectly identical specimens.
Features
• Material: Natural Pink Coral hand-engraved
• Subject: Medusa
• Mount: 925 silver plated in yellow gold
• Pendant dimensions: approximately 3.5 × 2.5 × 2 cm
• Total weight: approximately 15 g

**Artisanal Craftsmanship**
This jewelry originates in Torre del Greco, where the art of coral engraving is passed down through generations. Every stage of the process is performed by hand: from selecting the coral branch to the engraving, which requires experience, precision, and many hours of work.
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 elegant gift packaging, carefully packed to ensure maximum protection during transport.
Fast, tracked, and insured shipping with SDA or UPS courier.
Please check the shipment tracking. If the recipient is unavailable, the package may be left at a pickup point; if not collected, it will be returned to the sender.
If multiple lots are won, it is advisable to select combined shipping at checkout. If payments are made separately, the lots will be shipped individually and shipping costs will not be refundable.
Bidders should be aware that in some countries the import of natural materials such as coral may be subject to restrictions. By bidding, the buyer acknowledges awareness of the regulations in their own 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.
