A narrow piece of land between two seas - hardly any other place has such a peculiar attraction as the island of Sylt. Since the 19th century, the island has been regarded as a place of longing, a borderland between wind and water, between the vast landscape and the elegance of its glamorous seaside resorts. Artists, writers and illustrious summer visitors have repeatedly described its special atmosphere, this feeling of vastness, light and salty air. This handmade pendant echoes the unmistakable silhouette of the island. Its shape follows the narrow, elongated shape of Sylt, whose coastline is formed between the North Sea and the Wadden Sea. Twenty-two small diamonds, set in pavé, make the surface sparkle and lend the small golden island an almost maritime brightness, as if reflecting the light of the waves. The piece of jewellery was created in the 1980s, when the island had long since become an integral part of German vacation culture. The piece of jewellery actually belonged to a wealthy Berlin family who owned a vacation home on the island. The delicate gold chain, renewed by us, wears the pendant lightly and naturally, like a reminder of days on the beach, the wind over the dunes and that peculiar mixture of tranquillity and elegance that still characterizes Sylt today.
