Two St Basil's silver bracelets worn as a necklace with swirl, net, and striped enamelled onions set with cabochon garnet, citrine, amethyst and peridot. Inspired by the domes of St Basil's cathedral, Moscow. From the Journey to Russia.
*The necklace can also be worn as two bracelets.
Inspired by the decorative onion domes of St Basil's Cathedral in Moscow. The kokoshniki or Onion domes of the cathedral are the most wonderful sight when you see them for the very first time. Cassandra loved their frivolity, their exotic individual expressions of swirls, pineapple patterns, spirals, complicated geometric nets and, the explosion of colours against the sky. From the journey to Russia.
Silver is the most malleable of metals and when freshly polished takes a mirror like shine. All of the sterling silver used in Cassandra Goad jewellery is of the highest quality and crafted in one of our workshops in London. Cassandra always finds her silver from sustainable sources and where possible recycles the metal; never compromising on quality
All Cassandra Goad jewellery is designed and made in the
workshops in London.
As a gemmologist, the chemical composition and properties of
gemstones have always fascinated Cassandra. Ever in search of the
unusual and rare, she 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, his interpretation is
vital to the overall feel of the jewel. The jewel is then mounted,
assayed , polished and set. Many of Cassandra's jewels can be hand
engraved with a personal message to make a unique bespoke gift.
This year marks 35 years of Cassandra Goad and to celebrate Cassandra has delved deep into her jewellery archives to re-discover her most celebrated designs, to re-create each one into either its original form or re-imagined into unseen versions.
