History and production

The timeless elegance of the papal cut

When you first lay eyes on any of the pieces from the Pope collection, you'll quickly realize why it became a favourite amongst religious dignitaries, diplomatic circles, and aristocratic courts. Its sophistication lies in the so-called "papal cut". The bell-shaped chalice is decorated with a flat, arched cut. The faceted stem then gracefully transitions into a hexagonal crown. If you would like, the collection's refined appearance may be topped with an oroplastic of 24-carat gold.
