Characteristics and Symbolism of the Ruby: The King of Precious Gems
The ruby ​​has always been considered a symbol of passion and courage, a gem that holds a place of honor in fine jewelry. Many wonder about the technical characteristics of the ruby: it is a variety of corundum that owes its intense red color to the presence of chromium. In terms of hardness, the ruby ​​is second only to diamond, making it perfect for a piece of jewelry designed to last. In this “Albero Vita” pendant, the gem is set like a precious fruit among 18k gold branches and diamonds, creating a vibrant point of light that symbolizes vital energy and the strength of the deepest feelings.
Over fifty years of goldsmithing: Silvia Kelly excellence since 1970
Choosing a Silvia Kelly piece means embracing a family history rooted in the Lecco area since 1970. For over half a century, our workshop has transformed a passion for handcrafted jewelry into meaningful creations. The Albero Vita Pendant with ruby ​​is the expression of a unique collaborative process: each piece stems from the creative vision of the founder’s daughters, who curate the design and contemporary symbolism, before being handcrafted by our master goldsmiths. This synergy between creativity and technique is the heart of our handmade jewelry, guaranteeing the superior quality of Italian gold crafted with meticulous attention to detail.
Size and Versatility: The Tree of Life Collection
The “Big” model is designed for those seeking a statement piece, capable of telling a story through its golden interweavings. For those who prefer different proportions or want to create a family set, the collection offers several variations: you can also discover the Medium Ruby Albero Vita Pendant or the more delicate version, the Small Ruby Albero Vita Pendant. Each of our creations is an example of fine jewelry craftsmanship, designed to suit every style and occasion, embodying the warmth of Italian gold and the magnetic brilliance of rubies hand-set by our artisans.
Inspiration from the mountains and Lake Como: the charm of the region
The Albero Vita’s design draws continuous inspiration from the landscape surrounding our artisanal workshop in Lecco. The strength of its roots recalls the tradition of Valsassina, while the elegance of its golden branches is inspired by the refinement of the shores of Lake Como. We invite our customers to visit the atelier to discover how the vision of the founder’s daughters comes to life at the goldsmith’s bench. Choosing a Silvia Kelly ruby ​​jewel since 1970 means wearing a fragment of this landscape, a tribute to the “life well lived” cited by James May, where the aesthetic of artisanal jewelry blends with the culture and beauty of our land.
