"Grande Cigale" Necklace
The cicada necklace isn't meant to be subtle: it catches the light and draws the eye. The cicada embodies the passage of time—it spends years underground and emerges only when it is ready, for a single summer.
That is what makes it an ancient symbol throughout the Mediterranean region: patience, blooming at just the right moment. The *brass stamping * captures the veins of its wings, so delicate they could be mistaken for lace.
24k gold-plated brass · French brass stamping · Handmade in Nice
Worn close to the heart on an adjustable chain, it's all it takes to add a touch of warmth to a winter outfit.
The craft
This motif is struck from an antique die, hand-engraved in steel, using a French technique that has remained unchanged for nearly two centuries. Discover the story behind our brass stampings.
