The Cristina Sagredo lapis lazuli jewelry collection showcases the work of designer Cristina Sagredo, made by hand in our workshop in Santiago, Chile. It is part of our designers jewelry collections, where we bring the ideas of individual designers to life using our own stone and craftsmanship.
Her pieces have a sculptural, architectural quality, built around circles, links and repetition. The Rings of Life Cascade Necklace layers rings that fall in a gentle cascade, creating movement and depth at the neckline. The Rapa Nui Ring Necklace takes its name from Easter Island, the remote Chilean island famous for its Moai statues. The Links Necklace turns a classic chain motif into a bold statement piece in which each link becomes a design element.
Our artisans make every piece by hand, setting natural lapis lazuli in 950 sterling silver. Most of the stone comes from Chile’s lapis mine in the Andes, and because it is natural, each necklace carries its own depth of blue, white calcite veining and golden pyrite flecks, so no two are exactly alike.
The Cristina Sagredo lapis lazuli jewelry collection is a good choice for anyone who enjoys contemporary design with a Chilean story. These necklaces are made by the manufacturer, a family workshop founded in 1972, and sold directly with no middlemen.
