Eye + Monogram Shield Necklace – Silver Filigree

Ut avertam oculos meos ad internum – “I close my eyes to see”

Originally created so knights could be identified beneath layers of armour, the coat of arms evolved into a distinctive emblem for noble families, bringing together symbols, colours and shapes to represent identity and heritage.

Inspired by this tradition, the Eye Monogram Shield features an eye symbolising intuition, inner vision and the ability to see beyond appearances. Handcrafted using traditional filigree techniques and reproduced in sterling silver through casting, the shield can be personalised with an initial of your choice.

A contemporary interpretation of a traditional emblem, made personal through its symbolism and craftsmanship.

About Filigree

Filigree is an ancient metalworking technique with a history spanning thousands of years. Fine metal wires are carefully twisted, shaped and soldered together to create intricate, lace-like patterns. Traditionally used in jewellery and decorative arts across many cultures, filigree continues to find new expression in contemporary jewellery design.
