Silver key split ring with Zodiac Pisces Pendant in silver. From captivating constellations to Cassandra's celestial creations inspired by her journey to India, the Zodiac pendants illuminate the striking nature of every star sign. These symbolical designs, where traditional motifs meet time-honed artisanship, capture an enthralling array of characteristics within us all.
Zodiacs were created around 1st century BC. It was Shah Jahan's son, the Mughal Emperor Jahangir, who had a set of gold Zodiac coins made that I admired. I loved their worn, old Roman coin feel and the simple decoration with the Zodiac symbols of fishes, rams, bulls, crabs, and lobsters and I decided to make a set of Zodiac pendants inspired by them.
All Cassandra Goad Jewellery is designed and made in our workshops in London.
Ever in search of the unusual and rare, Cassandra travels the world to source beautiful gemstones, either in the rough or cut form.
The craftsman works as an artist recreating the design in metal. The jewel is then mounted, assayed, polished and set.
