Sasso
Giorgio Vigna Sasso, 2015 Mixed media, copper, and silver magnetic bracelet Inner diameter 6.5 cm, outer diameter 11.5 cm, height 5.5 cm circa Unique and signed The use of copper for its aesthetic value has been linked since ancient times to the production of jewellery: fine examples are the pieces designed and made by Giorgio Vigna.

They are also very beautiful as suspended pendants or buckles.
