This vintage Japanese necklace features the refined Zogan (象嵌) technique—a metal inlay method where fine gold designs are intricately embedded into a dark metal surface. The pendant displays an elegant floral motif.
Signed: AMITA
Zogan requires painstaking handwork to inlay precious metals into iron or copper bases, making each piece a true testament to artisanal mastery. This pendant is a beautiful reflection of Japan’s aesthetic values—balance, nature, and quiet sophistication.
