Aeneid by Virgil Alabaster

Style: 2V101 A

Matte silver medallions + 24mm big beads hanging from 8mm resin beads with seed beads.

With three strands, this necklace can be worn long or doubled for a shorter look around the neck.

Maria Calderara founded her eponymous brand in Venice in 1982, where her production atelier is still based today. Combining a passion for art with a background in architecture, she creates collections of clothing and jewelry defined by conceptual and rigorously structured designs.
