Cross Palito with Amarração Pendant in 18K Gold

A smaller palito cross with amarração in 18K gold — the binding detail at compact scale.

The smaller version of the palito cross with amarração — 19 × 27 mm, 1.2 grams in 18K yellow gold. The technique is the same as its larger sibling: a wrapping or binding detail across the cross's surface, treating the form as if it were tied with metal cord.

At this compact scale, the binding becomes a surface feature rather than a structural element. The pendant reads first as a slim cross, with the amarração visible up close as the design's distinguishing characteristic.

A pendant for those who want the technique in its everyday-wear register.
