Description from the seller

Artisanal Necklace with Natural Pink Coral Pendant Hand-Engraved – Medusa – 925 Silver Plated in Yellow Gold

Refined artisanal necklace made in Torre del Greco, a city renowned worldwide 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 of Greek mythology, a symbol of protection, strength, and transformation. Since ancient times its face has been used as an emblem capable of repelling negative energies and protecting the wearer.

The mounting in 925 Sterling Silver plated in yellow gold enhances the warm tones of the coral and completes the piece with elegance, keeping the engraving as the focal point.

Each piece is unique. The natural veins of the coral and the completely hand-engraved design make it impossible to produce two perfectly identical examples.

Features

• Material: Natural Pink Coral hand-engraved

• Subject: Medusa

• Mounting: 925 Sterling Silver plated in yellow gold

• Pendant dimensions: 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 for generations. Every stage of the process is performed by hand: from the selection of 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 piece 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 transit.

Fast, trackable, and insured shipping with SDA or UPS.

We recommend checking the shipment tracking. In case the recipient is absent, 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 will not be refundable.

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 acknowledges awareness 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.
