Joseph
Pale green paste intaglio
Text reads ‘Joseph’ in beautiful, flowing script
Why we love it
Now there’s a name to live up to. The earthly (some might say only) father of Jesus no less. And if that’s not your bag, how about that Yankee Clipper Joe DiMaggio? Or Josephine Butler, Victorian feminist and campaigner for women’s rights to education?
Or make it personal. If it’s not your name, wear it for your favourite friend, lover, uncle, goldfish. Even if their name is actually Bob. Or Mabel. Or Geoff.
Sure it would be great if you’re a Joseph, a Josef, a Josephine, a Joe, or even a Giuseppe. Or if you own an amazing technicolour dreamcoat. But why limit your options?
With such a soothing aquatic colour and hexagonal shape, this adorable intaglio will make a dreamlike pendant or dainty ring.
A oasis of calm amid your mess or stack.
