Hippogriff Pendant

Sale price$400.00

Handcrafted in Palermo


The Hippogriff travels through Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, a literary world echoed in Sicily's Opera dei Pupi puppet theater. Roberto Intorre reimagines the mythical creature as a pendant, shaping silver, bronze, and copper around a freshwater pearl. The result is a small, wearable expression of the epic's imaginative journey.

Meet the Artisan

Roberto Intorre

Trained as an architect, Roberto Intorre brings a sculptural sensibility to jewelry, finding  inspiration in the natural forms and cultural traditions of Sicily. The intricate structure of the  prickly pear, the interwoven lines of fishermen's nets, and the characters of Sicily's puppet  theater become distinctive expressions in his hands. Working from his Palermo atelier,  Roberto creates jewelry that carries the island's stories in every detail.
