With this inaugural Special Project, Stavisky Studio expands its practice into intimate sculptural objects. Each pendant began as a real peach pit—chosen from only the sweetest summer fruit, then transformed through a meticulous process of cleaning, drying, and hand-application of 24k gold leaf. The resulting object is both relic and ornament, holding the quiet symbolism of what remains after the flame of passion.
The pendant is accompanied by an embossed monotype print created specifically for this edition, forming a paired artwork that bridges jewelry, sculpture, and print. Together, they continue the narrative arc of the artist’s “Peach Trilogy,” exploring appetite, memory, and the sanctity of small pleasures.
Details:
• 24k gold-leafed natural peach pit, hand-gilded and sealed
• Freshwater pearl accent
• Gold-filled Y-chain, 18–20" adjustable
• Accompanying embossed 'Aflame' monotype print (signed & numbered). Note: each print has variation in color, as is the nature of monotype prints (one of a kind).
• Edition of 10 sets
• Packaged in a studio gift box
Please note that because peach pits and pearls are natural materials, their size and form vary from necklace to necklace. See the three photos I've included that demonstrate the variability.

Act III — The Golden Core (The Relic)
When the sweetness is eaten, when the fire burns through, what remains is the core.
The pit.
The truth.
A seed of pleasure gilded into permanence.
A golden reminder to live voraciously.
Eat the peach. Keep the pit.
