Tanzanite Acanthus 18K Necklace

Invisible Symbols in Life: Eternal Acanthus
French art critic Charles Blanc once said, “Style is the imprint of human thought on nature.” Since the ancient Greek and Roman eras, botanical motifs have held a significant role in adorning architecture, home décor, clothing, and even precious jewelry. Plants have consistently taken center stage, each conveying subtle cultural connotations that have traversed millennia in our extensive and somewhat obscured history. Within this celebration of nature, plants evolved into symbols, and in the post-Middle Ages, the feathery and wing-like form of the Acanthus leaf became a classic representative emblem of botanical patterns. I’ve embraced this timeless Acanthus leaf, simplifying its lines for a more modern aesthetic, and selected Tanzanite, a gemstone recently discovered in this century, as the centrepiece, wishing to open up new possibilities for the past and leave a little beautiful mark on life.
