The body is filled with spirals and the wing opens into separate feathers, each one its own thread. It carries a raw emerald in the tail. The most laborious piece in the catalogue and the slowest to come out.

Anything missing from this list is simply not confirmed by the workshop yet. We prefer the gap to an adjective.

The craft

Filigree is not a stamped pattern. It is metal drawn until it becomes thread, then coiled, soldered and set by hand. Six hours to reach 0.22 mm; two or three days for a pair of earrings. That is why no two pieces come out the same.

Care

Dry and stored apart. No perfume, chlorine or cream on top. Filigree is fine thread: once bent, it does not always come back.

Raw emerald keeps the matrix of the stone, which is more fragile than a polished cut. Avoid sharp knocks against hard surfaces and never clean it in an ultrasonic bath.
