Inspired by the Zodiac Mohurs commissioned by Mughal Emperor Jahangir in the early 17th century, the Octavia Zodiac Medallion draws on a remarkable moment when the twelve signs of the zodiac appeared on imperial gold coins.

Representing the air signs of Aquarius, Gemini and Libra, each zodiac is hand-carved in reverse into natural rock crystal by an expert stone carver, preserving the centuries-old craft of intaglio. When pressed into wax, the carving leaves a positive impression of the zodiac, revealing the image as it was intended to be seen.

The rock crystal is held within an octagonal bezel of matte 18k yellow gold. The Gold version is left unadorned, allowing the carving and material to take focus, while the Pavé Diamond version is surrounded by 1.66 carats of round brilliant-cut natural diamonds.

At Nue, we celebrate the past by carrying its stories, symbols and human crafts forward into objects made for the present.

We are dedicated to ethical and sustainable production and use only 18k recycled solid gold and ethically sourced natural diamonds.

All our pieces are crafted by hand in our atelier in Antwerp and Dubai. In an effort to use only the resources we require we do not keep large stock levels. Your jewelry will be created from scratch once your order is placed. Please allow 3-4 weeks for us to create your piece.

Our pieces are shipped to you using fully insured carbon neutral carriers. For international shipping we use DHL Express.

We accept returns on fine jewelry for up to 30 days. Customized products cannot be returned due to their personal nature.
