Ciondolo "Ficus" in Argento con Rubini Grezzi rodolite along with my greatest desire:For this pendant I was inspired by the Ficus watkinsiana also called "strangler fig". The common name comes from the fact that it grows slowly around other trees and wraps itself around them with its roots. When the tree around which it grows dies and rots, only it remains, the structure that remains is of infinite beauty. Sometimes beautiful things, or even ourselves, need a support to grow on.
