Victoria Strigini: Ancient Roman Cabochon Necklace, in 18k Gold and Carnelian
About the Item
Victoria Strigini (b. 1991)
A handcrafted contemporary 18k yellow gold necklace with a thick domed cabochon nestling an ancient Roman intaglio, in carnelian, dating from the 2nd- 3rd Century AD. The intaglio depicts Mercury, divine messenger, patron of travelers, and god of commerce, cradling his heraldic caduceus entwined with two snakes in his left arm; and a bag of coins —symbolic of trade, travel, and adventure— in his right.
The ancient intaglio is set in a striking 18k gold round modern mount, which serves as an extension of the cabochon, and is attached to a 16” chain.
Each Victoria Strigini piece is unique and handcrafted in the designer's Mayfair, London workshop. Please contact us for custom pieces.
Approximate Measurements: 18mm diameter x 4.5mm thick, attached to a 16” chain.
Victoria Strigini is a French-born, London-based jewelry designer. Her work reimagines Greek and Roman antiquities for the present, setting rare intaglios, cameos, coins, and stones in bold, minimalist mounts with pure and subtle lines. Her jewelry presents striking contrasts while highlighting the timelessness of century-old objects. “Beyond their beauty, classical gemstones have survived for more than 2,000 years; that's magical,” Strigini says. “Imagining all of the hands they've passed through and then wearing one of these treasures brings you into its history. It’s a never-ending story that we get to inhabit.”
Responsibly fashioned from recycled gemstones and gold by highly skilled London-based artisans, Strigini's jewelry harnesses centennial traditions of craftsmanship in service of a strong modern vision, to create responsibly and wear with energy and ease.
The daughter of a painter and the granddaughter of a seamstress, Strigini was raised in a tradition of deep female creativity, learning early on the importance of materials, quality, and ingenuity. After studying art history, she received diplomas in Jewelry Design, CAD, and Diamond Grading from the Gemological Institute of America in New York, before returning to London and founding her eponymous line in 2019. Her work has been featured in Vogue, Madame Figaro, Coveteur, and the Financial Times.
