This one-of-a-kind vintage necklace features an exquisite antique pendant of Saint John the Baptist, known as the patron saint of tailors. According to tradition, he crafted his own garments from camel’s hair — a symbol of skill, independence, and craftsmanship.

The pendant depicts him holding a lamb, a timeless emblem of innocence, purity, and gentleness — making this piece as meaningful as it is stylish.

On the reverse, the mysterious engraved initials D.F. and the date 24 Febrero 1913 add a touch of romance and untold history to its charm.

All metal components are made of solid 925 sterling silver, recently gold-plated in Barcelona to restore and preserve their original beauty for years to come.

A timeless treasure reimagined for modern life and layered with meaning — crafted by Pola Jewellery in Mallorca.

Gender neutral.

Care

Pola Jewellery necklaces are made with beautiful and delicate antique pieces. To ensure they stay bright and shiny for as long as possible, keep them away from chemicals such as perfume and chlorine, water and/or excessive perspiration. In order to avoid your jewellery from tangling or scratching each other we also recommend keeping them in the cute eco-friendly jewellery box we provide with your purchase.

Sustainability

Pre-loved: For our Vintage Collection, Pola reclaims, recovers and crafts one of a kind pre-loved pieces found in antique shops and flea markets around the world. By reinventing and reusing them we give these pieces a new life within a new fresh concept, reducing the carbon footprint that manufacturing new ones would create.

Local production: Our brass chains are locally crafted in our sister island Menorca at one of the few remaining chain manufacturers on the island, a small family run business operating since 1962. By working closely with local suppliers we are supporting them and helping the local economy. 

Gold and silver plating: Our gold and silver plating is done in Barcelona under the most strict sustainable conditions. Only recycled gold and silver are employed in a process where water is reused numerous times and thoroughly filtered before being discarded, free of harmful chemicals.

Packaging: Our lovely jewellery boxes use FSC®-certified cardboard and water-based glue.
