The artefact

The central pendand is a Flower of Life, a common decorative element in Sardinian traditional craftsmanship, embellished with a pinnadeddu, a rounded element intended to bring good luck, traditionally used in goldsmith's art. The small ceramic beads alternate with oval vibrated agate stone beads.
