Women's Metallic Colosseum Pendant – Handcrafted Sterling Or Flash-Plated

Inspired by the iconic Colosseum in Rome, this sculptural pendant distils the grandeur of ancient Roman architecture into a wearable piece of art. Every arch, opening and weathered contour has been carefully hand-carved in wax before being cast using the traditional lost wax technique, preserving the character and craftsmanship of the original sculpture. Choose between: Sterling Silver – finished with polished highlights and oxidised recesses to enhance the sculptural details and create an aged, archaeological character. 18ct Gold Flash-Plated Sterling Silver – finished with a fine 0. 2-micron layer of 18ct yellow gold, offering a warm golden finish while preserving the intricate detailing of the original sculpture. Each Tg-Jewellery piece is handcrafted using traditional techniques, and with the right care it will continue to be treasured for years to come. As each piece is individually made, natural variations in texture, finish and patina are part of its unique character. Daily Wear Sterling silver naturally develops a patina over time when exposed to air and moisture. Regular wear can help slow this process, while occasional polishing will restore its original brightness. Gold does not tarnish, but it can develop surface marks or scratches over time through everyday wear, adding to the character of a handmade piece. Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, hairspray, cleaning products and household chemicals, as these can affect the surface finish of your jewellery. Storage When not wearing your jewellery, store it in a dry place, ideally inside a soft pouch or jewellery box. Keep each piece separate from other jewellery to help prevent scratches, especially on textured or sculptural surfaces. Cleaning Gently clean your jewellery with a soft polishing cloth to maintain its shine. For a deeper clean, use warm water with a small amount of mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can alter the surface finish, texture or handmade patina of the piece. Natural Patina & Handmade Finish A slight change in colour or surface appearance is a natural part of precious metals and can enhance the sculptural details of each design. If you prefer a brighter finish, occasional gentle polishing will restore the shine while preserving the handmade character of your jewellery. Extra Care Remove your jewellery before: Heavy manual work Exercise or activities that may cause impact Swimming or bathing Contact with chemicals or cleaning products With thoughtful care, your Tg-Jewellery piece will continue to reflect the craftsmanship, individuality and story behind its creation.
