composed of two bands realized with 19th-century jacquard looms, it features a griffin motif and the phrase by seneca “astra ad aspera”, handmade by marta cucchia. At the center it is enriched with a jacquard band made of fiber optics and lurex that reinterprets the original pomegranate motif by atelier brozzetti, realized by a specialized workshop.

optical fibers, as thin as an angel’s hair, are tied together and connected to a led light of 0.1w, powered by a rechargeable usb battery.

when in dim-light, the effect is stronger and clearer.

it comes with or without padding upon choice.
