The Cristallino Brooch is an opulent fusion of artistry and drama, handcrafted with intricate beading and luminous sequins that catch the light like the gilded chandeliers of Teatro Massimo in Palermo. Deep burgundy, amber, and hints of violet mirror the grand velvet curtains and golden embellishments of one of Italy’s most breathtaking opera houses. Finished with delicate pearl embellishments and flowing ribbons so you can wear it as a choker as well, this brooch is for those who embrace theatrical elegance with a modern twist (ribbon removable)

The Story Behind the Cristallino Brooch:
Inspired by an evening at Teatro Massimo, where the air was thick with the passion of Verdi’s operas and the flicker of candlelight danced along the velvet-lined balconies, this brooch carries the soul of Sicilian grandeur. As I sat beneath the vast dome, mesmerized by the voices soaring through the hall, I felt the weight of history and beauty colliding—an emotion I wanted to capture in a piece that feels both regal and alive.

The Cristallino Brooch is for those who love the art of making an entrance, who carry the echoes of grand performances in their hearts, and who believe that true style is a spectacle.
