This delightful and very cute pin in the shape of a fly, made with a mix of realism and simplicity, in which we find all the details and the most iconic elements of this little insect but made in an essential and sober way.
Here the body and head of our fly are a sapphire and a ruby respectively of round and oval cut, characterized by an intense blue and a deep red; the wings are instead decorated with rosette cut diamonds.
The fly is almost entirely made of 12k yellow gold, except for the upper part of the wings which is made of silver, so as to highlight the diamonds.
Flies are one of the most used insects to decorate jewelry, especially vintage and antique jewelry, and this is because they are a symbol of abundance and wealth, making them a sort of lucky charm.
