Jewel made entirely by hand by the Italian craftsman Gianmarco Fontana. Pendant made of 925 silver, which is part of the "Michelangelo" collection depicting the Madonna by Michelangelo.

The Vatican Pietà is a marble sculpture (height 174 cm, width 195 cm, depth 69 cm) by Michelangelo Buonarroti, datable to 1497-1499 and preserved in St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican in Rome. This is the first masterpiece of the then little more than twenty years old Michelangelo, considered one of the greatest works of art that the West has ever produced. It is also the only work he signed, on the shoulder band holding the Virgin's mantle: MICHEL.A [N] GELVS BONAROTVS FLORENT [INVS] FACIEBAT ("The Florentine Michelangelo Buonarroti did it").
