Milena Zu Vega pendant necklace – artistic handmade jewellery with a striking balance of texture and form.
Designed by Italian jewellery designer Milena Zu, this distinctive pendant necklace brings together contemporary design and traditional craftsmanship. Balinese artisans create this intricate circular pendant. They work closely with designer Milena Zu, using an ancient technique of crocheting fine metal wire entirely by hand.
Fine brass wire forms the pendant, with one half plated in oxidised silver and the other in gold. A slender oxidised bar cuts through the circle, giving the design a strong geometric feel and creating a beautiful balance between softness and structure.
The pendant hangs from an oxidised sterling silver snake chain that complements the darker tones of the piece. The combination of mixed metals, handcrafted detail and modern design makes this necklace an easy choice for anyone drawn to artistic handmade jewellery and contemporary designer jewellery.
Every necklace showcases the remarkable skill of the designer and makers behind it. The crocheted metal technique creates a texture that can’t be achieved by machine, giving the piece a character of its own. As a piece of artistic handmade jewellery, it offers the pleasure of wearing something thoughtfully made, individual and quietly expressive.
The pendant is 5.5cm wide and 9.5cm long from the chain. The dark silver chain is 45cm long and has an extension of 4cm.
