Power needs no witness.
Medusa, reimagined with her eyes closed.
For centuries, Medusa has been defined by the power of her gaze. Here, her eyes are closed not in surrender, but in self-possession—a quiet expression of power that exists whether or not anyone is there to witness it.
And still, the serpents remain awake.
Sculpted in extraordinary detail, overlapping serpents surround her face down to individual teeth measuring just 0.3–0.5 mm. Rather than hanging from a traditional pendant, Medusa is built directly into the rolo chain and designed to rest within the natural dip of the collarbone—a sculpture worn as a necklace.
Available in luminous gold vermeil, where her features emerge subtly through light and shadow, and patinated sterling silver, darkened to settle into the sculpture's deepest details and bring every line and serpent into sharper relief.
An ancient symbol of protection, transformation, and feminine power, reimagined.
Medusa, eyes closed. Power intact.
FIT & LENGTH
13–16" adjustable. Designed to sit within the natural dip of the collarbone. Adjust the chain to position Medusa where she rests best on you. For custom length, please contact us at hello@midorijewelry.co.
DETAILS
JEWELRY CARE
Crafted to be lived in, our gold vermeil features 3 microns of 18k gold over sterling silver and is sealed with an anti-tarnish coating for lasting shine.
 |
AVOID SWEAT | Avoid wearing jewelry during exercise or strenuous tasks because sweat may cause it to tarnish. |
 |
AVOID BATH, SAUNA, SWIMMING POOLS, OCEAN WATER | These environments expose jewelry to prolonged heat, moisture, chlorine, and salt which can weaken the gold layer and speed up tarnishing. |
 |
AVOID COSMETICS | Let skincare and fragrances absorb fully before wearing jewelry, as oils and chemicals may dull the surface over time. |
 |
STORAGE | Store your pieces in a dry, airtight pouch or jewelry box to prevent moisture from dulling the gold. |
OUR MATERIALS
GOLD VERMEIL
Our gold vermeil pieces are crafted in a Responsible Jewelry Council certified production house, featuring a base of sterling silver coated with a thick layer of genuine 18k gold. We follow higher-than-industry standards by using 3 microns of gold instead of the usual 2.5, and every piece is sealed with an anti-tarnish coating.
The result is jewelry that looks luxurious, lasts longer, and is gentle on sensitive skin. Comparable to gold-filled in durability and far more elevated than regular plating, our gold vermeil is designed to be worn often and cherished for years.
