Description from the seller

Natural Baroque Pearl Necklace with Red Coral, Black Onyx and Butterfly Cameo – Handcrafted Jewelry

An extraordinary handcrafted necklace made with stunning natural freshwater baroque pearls, embellished by an original pendant that combines precious materials, refined colors, and the traditions of Italian goldsmithing.

The pearls, with irregular shapes and generous sizes, display delicate ivory-white hues and fascinating nacreous reflections. Each pearl has unique characteristics, expression of nature's authentic beauty.

The true protagonist of the jewelry is the large artistic pendant about 11 cm long, featuring a refined composition of natural and decorative elements:

- **Cameo with butterfly:** small oval cameo with a delicately carved white butterfly in relief, a symbol of transformation, freedom, and rebirth.
- **Red coral:** elegant twig-shaped element, in a lively red tone, recalling the beauty and craftsmanship of the Mediterranean.
- **Black onyx:** large circular element with a smooth, glossy surface, creating a refined color contrast with the white pearls and the red coral.
- **Beaded pearl:** a luminous white pearl suspended from a slender golden chain, lending movement, lightness, and elegance to the entire composition.

Gold finishes and the snap ring closure complete the design, creating a perfect balance between contemporary style, classic elegance, and artisanal originality.

A scenographic and sophisticated piece, ideal for those who love exclusive accessories and creations that do not go unnoticed.

## MEANING OF THE MATERIALS

**Baroque pearls** represent elegance, authenticity, and uniqueness. Their naturally irregular shapes make each necklace distinctive and unrepeatable.

**Red coral**, traditionally regarded as a symbol of protection, luck, and vitality, evokes the charm of the Mediterranean.

**Black onyx** is symbolically associated with strength, balance, and determination, while **the butterfly carved in the cameo** represents transformation, freedom, and beauty.

The union of these elements gives life to a creation with strong artistic character, capable of telling a story through materials, forms, and colors.

## PACKAGING AND SHIPPING

The necklace will be delivered in an elegant gift package, complete with box and shopping bag, carefully protected to preserve every detail during transport.

Fast, tracked, and insured shipping via SDA or UPS professional courier.

In case multiple lots are won, it is advisable to select combined shipping before payment. Items paid separately could be shipped individually, with no possibility of reimbursement of shipping costs.

**An exclusive piece with great stage presence, where the luminosity of the pearls meets the charm of coral, onyx, and the ancient art of the cameo. A genuine expression of Italian elegance and artisanal creativity.**

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.
