Vintage 9ct Gold & Diamond Life Buoy Pendant
This is super cool, and the second I saw it, thoughts of protection and safety sprang to mind. That’s the great thing about jewellery, and art in general, it’s not just about precious metals and stones. It means more. It means something. I love how someone has taken tis instantly recognisable object and recreated it, very realistically, in gold and diamonds, even including the rope around the edge, which really finishes it off. Super fun and pretty unique (first one I have ever seen I think!) I love the use of white gold which adds even more interest and detail. And obviously, we love the sparkle of the diamonds. Wear or gift it as a little protective talisman, or just enjoy the fab design.
