A Little Golden Puzzle Pendant

The appeal of this pendant lies in the way its different surfaces come together. At first glance, it resembles a small, sculptural piece with a broad, rounded outline and gently bevelled edges. Look again and the details begin to emerge. One section is decorated with irregular, softly raised shapes, each separated by fine engraved lines. Another contains an open geometric arrangement, where slender gold bars meet to form triangular spaces. A broad opening on the adjoining side gives the design an airy appearance, while the reverse reveals the framework supporting its distinctive shape. The pendant has a slightly dimensional form, allowing its patterns and polished edges to be appreciated from different angles. It feels playful, curious and a little unconventional, like a small object picked up during a memorable journey simply because its unusual shape was impossible to resist.
