Ouroboros Pendant in 18K Gold Vermeil

Mens Necklace Ouroboros Pendant

This piece represents the ancient symbol of the ouroboros, a snake consuming its own tail, embodying the concepts of eternity, renewal, and the cyclical nature of life. The continuous form of the ouroboros speaks to the infinite cycle of creation and destruction, a reminder that all endings are new beginnings. Crafted with meticulous detail, the textured surface captures the snake’s scales, while the polished finish reflects light, drawing attention to the pendant's fluidity and movement.

The ouroboros, as a reflection of life's endless cycles, invites the wearer to contemplate the interconnectedness of all things and the idea of self-transformation. This piece is a timeless symbol of resilience, personal growth, and the beauty found in the balance between life’s transitions.

***Gold vermeil (pronounced "ver-may") is a type of high-quality jewelry that consists of a thick layer of gold over sterling silver. To qualify as true gold vermeil, the following criteria must be met:
Base Metal: The base metal must be sterling silver.
Gold Layer: The gold layer must be at least 2.5 microns thick (a micron is a unit of measurement for thickness, and 2.5 microns is thicker than standard gold plating).
Gold Purity: The gold used must be at least 10 karats, though higher karats (such as 14k or 18k) are commonly used to create a richer appearance.
This process results in a more durable and long-lasting finish compared to regular gold-plated jewelry, which often uses a thinner layer of gold over a base metal like brass or copper. Gold vermeil is favored for its affordability compared to solid gold, while still offering the appearance of fine gold jewelry.

Size and Fit:
The pendant's size: 25.5 mm x 18.7 mm // 1" x 0.73"
Weighs approximately 6.2g of pure sterling silver. and a layer of 18K gold

You can choose to purchase only the pendant or add an 18K gold vermeil chain to it.
This is a curb chain 2 mm wide, made of sterling silver, with a 2.5 micron layer of 18K gold for protection, durability and aesthetic. 

For this collection, I set out to explore new creative territories, departing from the more rugged textures of my previous work. Here, I focused on shiny surfaces, using their reflective qualities to evoke a sense of clarity and elegance. At the same time, I introduced unexpected shapes—bold yet balanced forms that break away from traditional design, inviting curiosity and interaction. Throughout the collection, I played with symmetry and fluidity, combining the precision of mirrored elements with the soft, flowing lines found in nature. This body of work represents a journey into the interplay between the polished and the organic, a celebration of both control and spontaneity in design.

If you’re not sure about what chain size to pick, measure a string, place it around your neck with the length you picked and check on the mirror if it hangs at the height you were expecting. 

Quick Q&A:
