Green and glossy like a mint sweet: a fish that smiles mockingly at adventure.
«It has glossy bright green scales, orange eyes and a dazzling smile!»
Pesce Alga (Seaweed Fish) is a necklace with a large ceramic fish sculpture: a vivid green body with the fine web of a crackle glaze, human eyes, a wide-open mouth and an elegant golden-bronze tail.
Above the fish, a row of glossy ivory-white ceramic teardrop beads knotted one by one on a light terracotta-pink cotton cord. Hollow at the centre, like every bead Simona Frigerio makes: big in size, small in weight.
An extravagant and cheerful necklace that inspires good humour, elegant over black, splendid with raw wool and linen.
