SearchThe C__l__o pendant
The C__l__o pendant is inspired by the first canto of Dante's "Paradiso" in the "Divina Commedia". It marks a new beginning, a realm so luminous that Dante's memory of it is inadequate. He calls upon Apollo, the muse of poetry to give him courage on his journey
O buono Appollo, a l'ultima lavoro fammi del tuo valor si fatto vaso
_Paradiso, canto i, The Sphere of the Moon
Lauren Faye (@C__l__o) and Rosh Mahtani created the pendant to mark the new moon on the 2nd March, 2018: a night that invites us to burn our past memories and imagine new adventures.
They will make 100 limited edition pendants, each one numbered in the wax carving. There will be 50 in sterling silver, and 50 in gold-plated. You will receive the story with the piece, on the 22nd March.
