THE DESIGN STORY

Inspired by Botticelli’s legendary painting, “Birth of Venus”, this sterling silver pendant necklace is sculpted in the form of a shell, celebrating Venus as an enduring symbol of love and beauty. The large sculptural pendant is suspended by a contrasting black cord necklace, offering striking versatility in styling - from relaxed daytime wear to elevated evening looks. Handcrafted with attention to detail, this piece embodies timeless artisan jewellery rooted in classical art and modern design.

ETHOS

Produced in a family run workshop of 7 workmen and women, our pieces are exclusively carved and crafted by hand in Athens, using Ancient Greek jewellery-making techniques and silversmithing. As champions of slow production, we create only small quantities per design. If a piece is sold out you are welcome to place a pre-order, which has a three week turnaround period, for a piece to be made exclusively for you. Unique designs that are not part of our core collection of YSSO Icons, will no longer be available once they sell out. Explore more about our story in the article about YSSO in the New York Times.
