The 'Rinascita Odyssey' pendant is a stunning tribute to the voyage of discovery. This exquisite piece, handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, drew inspiration from William's visit to the V&A Museum, where he was captivated by ornate antique ships and intricate pomanders. Merging these two elements, Griffiths conceived a pendant that is a modern-day pomander, releasing a delicate fragrance from its perforated hull.
"This masterpiece is created of mixed metals, with sails crafted from lustrous white gold, capturing the wind with a gleaming elegance. The deck and masts, forged from rich yellow gold, stand proud and resilient. The hull, sculpted from pristine platinum, features a criss-cross lattice design adorned with shimmering diamonds, each facet catching the light like the sun on ocean waves.
Suspended by two chains from a golden helm, the ship floats effortlessly, in the spirit of sailing towards new horizons. At the heart of the ship's helm lies a compass, intricately carved from stone, guiding the wearer on their journey through life’s unchartered waters."
