A one-of-a-kind solid 9ct recycled gold pendant inspired by the East Timorese Belak, a traditional symbol of bravery and courage.
Small enough to layer with other pendants and meaningful enough to wear alone, the Mini Belak brings the symbolism of the traditional medallion into an understated contemporary form.
Each pendant is created by melting recycled gold granules and allowing the precious metal to take its own organic shape. No two are exactly alike.
The Belak is a traditional East Timorese medallion associated with bravery and courage. Traditionally awarded to warriors returning from war, Belak medallions continue to be worn during traditional ceremonies today.
These pieces reimagine the circular form of the Belak as contemporary jewellery, preserving its symbolism while giving the form a new life.
