Wood that remembers the time before the pyramids. A shield-shaped pendant in ancient bog oak from deposits radiocarbon-dated to around 7,500 years. The black of the wood comes from no dye — the oak took it on over millennia in water, earth and minerals. A faceted crystal brings a controlled play of light and a clear counterpoint to the black of the oak. The shield form gives the pendant a stronger, yet still calm presence. About 42 × 35 mm — clearly visible, yet comfortable to wear. A high-gloss finish emphasises the depth of the materials. A unisex pendant — for every day and for special occasions.

Each piece is made in a small series or as a bespoke commission, preserving a natural material structure that can never be replicated exactly. We can create a made-to-order design, tailoring the form, materials, colour palette and finish to the person who will wear it. ZILVANO brings together jewelry, craftsmanship and materials with a story in personal forms designed to be worn close to the body. Looking for a different size or a bespoke project? Contact us.
