About the Item

The Amphora is one of the most widely used motifs in Ancient Archeological Jewellery through the Victorian period. The Amphora was a container-vessel-vase-jug-pot that was used to store and or transport oil, water, perfume and grain. The pointed bottom on certain amphoras was a way of storing it upright, as the Bottom (pointed end) would go into the sand or dirt floor of that period of time’s dwellings in the Mediterranean world. Created the same way as in Ancient civilizations, this 15kt gold necklace has 33 pointed bottom Amphoras. The back of each Amphora is flat enabling it to fit around the neck laying flat. There are 33 long gold spacers in between each amphora. There is a gold chain that all the Amphora and spacers are hanging and ending at the clasp and end loop. The signature clasp is easy to put on and to take off. The total length is 17 1/2” and the Amphora’s length are 7/8” ( 44.45 cm Length 22.22mm length of each Amphora). The weight of this necklace is 74.21 grams. The Castellani Double C Logo plate is affixed to one of the Amphoras and one affixed to the signature clasp. Castellani’s Jewellery from the 19th Century is in museums: British Museum; Victoria Albert Museum; Metropolitan Museum of Art; The Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt Museum to name a few); exhibitions as well as in private collections. Fortunato Pio Castellani can be called the "Father of Archeological Revival Jewellery". In the mid 1800's in Rome, Castellani had the entree to visit the Ancient Etruscan ruins. He was able to study these Ancient designs as well as other Ancient Mediterranean civilizations’ jewellery and started to create and re-design under his brand. 38410
