Spinning has always held meaning for me. The pirinola — a top set in motion, its outcome uncertain until it stops — is an object of chance and ritual at once.
This charm belongs to the Colette Jewelry collection of objects that carry weight beyond their form. Cast in 18-karat yellow gold, set with a carved malachite at its center. The stone's concentric green — no two surfaces identical — makes each piece its own. The silhouette is precise: a spinning top reduced to its essential geometry, suspended as a charm.
Malachite chosen not for decoration but for what it holds. Mineral history compressed into color. The form rotates in memory even when still.
A charm. Worn alone or added to a chain already in progress.
