Piece of the Week: Cece Jewellery’s ‘Insignia’ Medallion
Spin the medallion’s diamond arrow to find out your fate.

With a spin of the diamond arrow, Cece Jewellery’s “Insignia” medallion will tell you everything you need to know.
The fate spinner may land on the swallow to set you off on an adventure, the cherub to let you know love is around the corner, or perhaps the mermaid’s tail to signify you should go where your dreams take you.
Made of 18-karat yellow gold and highlighted by brilliant-cut diamonds, this medallion is a culmination of seven symbols from the brand’s “Insignia” collection, each hand-painted with champlevé enamel.
There’s the mermaid as the dreamer, lion as the warrior, cherub as the lover, an eye in a lotus flower as the protector, a flaming heart as the heartbreaker, a rainbow for luck, and a swallow for adventure.
Each day, the wearer is encouraged to spin the arrow on this tactical piece to find out their fate. Rather than adorning themselves with a single resonating motif from the collection, the medallion allows the wearer to bear them all in a single piece.
Cece Fein Hughes, the founder of Cece Jewellery, said the oversized medallion is “the pièce de résistance and crowning jewel of the collection.”
“As always, I am inspired by the tongue in cheek elements of tattoos, and the whimsy and witchiness of fairy tales – a theme that will forever run through my work.”
The Insignia medallion retails for $51,000 as of press time and is available on Cece Jewellery’s website.
