La Calliope 24ct Yellow Gold-Plated Bronze And Pearl Necklace

Originally inspired by Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy, the eponymous label looks to another iconic literary work for its latest collection. Fittingly named after the muse that, in Greek mythology, presided over epic poetry, the La Calliope necklace is part of an edit inspired by T.S. Eliot’s poem The Waste Land. Handcrafted in London’s Hatton Gardens, its shimmering 24-carat gold-plated pendant suspends from a chain artfully made from a string of fresh-water pearls.
