Petra, meaning stone, takes its name from skandalopetra, the ancient Greek art of freediving. Brave divers would descend into the depths without equipment, holding a weighted stone tethered by rope, before being drawn back to the boat. Evoking the skandalopetra stones and ropes that once connected divers to vessels, triangle-shaped Australian South Sea pearls are suspended from fine 18K yellow gold chains set with diamonds. Created to pair with Pearls My Way or pearl studs.
