This pendant brings together elements that belong to the same story, a love letter told in fragments. The starting point was a distinctive elongated dendritic agate, threaded with ink-like inclusions. It felt as if the stone already held the first line, and the rest of the design followed its lead. The composition gathered around it: a miniature letter with a deep red enamel seal, alongside a quill and an ink bottle. The backing is gilded with 24k fine gold using keum-boo, a traditional Korean technique. A London blue topaz cabochon adds depth and contrast, and a pearl brings a softer, antique note to the piece. The settings around the gemstones are solid 22ct gold.
A one-of-a-kind piece from the Cabinet of Curiosities collection made for someone who lives with objects that carry meaning and memory.
