The design of this necklace is inspired by the Derafsh Kaviani, one of the most powerful and enduring symbols in Iranian history.
According to historical and literary sources, the Derafsh Kaviani traces back to the legend of Kaveh Ahangar, who raised his leather apron as a banner in rebellion against tyranny. Over time, this symbol evolved into the royal standard of Iranian kings, representing not only authority, but resistance, unity, and legitimacy.
By the Sasanian period, the Derafsh Kaviani had transformed into a richly adorned imperial banner, decorated with jewels and precious fabrics, carried into battle as a symbol of sovereignty and national identity. It was not merely a flag, but a declaration of power rooted in the will of the people.
This piece reinterprets that legacy through form and material.
Crafted entirely in 930 sterling silver and finished with enamel work, the necklace carries a vivid, enduring surface that reflects both craftsmanship and symbolism. The proportions are refined for everyday wear, allowing the piece to sit naturally while maintaining its visual presence.
This necklace is not just an ornament.
It is a fragment of a banner that once stood against tyranny.
A symbol raised in defiance,
reimagined as something you carry close to you.
