"Grande Cigale" Necklace

€99.00

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.
