Versace 'Virtus' V Pendant Necklace In Gold-Tone Brass With Barocco Acanthus Flourishes On Rope Chain
Overview
A Signature Piece Of Versace'S Contemporary Jewellery Vocabulary, The Virtus V Pendant Necklace Anchors One Of The Maison'S Most Enduring Icons — The Sculptural 'V' Letterform — In A Richly Worked Baroque Expression. The Pendant Is Rendered In Polished Gold-Tone Brass And Modelled In Versace'S Signature Barocco Silhouette: A Bold Geometric 'V' Framed By Climbing Acanthus Leaf Flourishes That Curl Outward At Top And Bottom In The Manner Of Seventeenth-Century Italian Decorative Carving. The Pendant Suspends From A Substantial Twisted Rope Chain In Matching Gold-Tone, Finished With A Lobster Clasp Closure. Named After The Roman Deity Virtus — The Personification Of Strength And Courage — The Design Captures The Dramatic Theatricality That Has Defined The Maison Since Gianni Versace Founded The House In Milan In 1978, Executed With Donatella Versace'S Contemporary Sensibility. Hypoallergenic, Lead And Nickel Free. Crafted In Italy.

Collector Commentary
The Virtus V Pendant Represents Versace At Its Most Contemporary And Most Archival Simultaneously — The V Serves As Both An Abbreviation Of The Versace House Name And As A Deliberate Echo Of The Maison'S Love Of Roman And Greek Antiquity, With The Climbing Acanthus Flourishes Drawing Directly From Classical Italian Baroque Ornamental Carving. Where Many Luxury Maisons Reduce Logo Jewellery To Minimal Hardware, Versace'S Virtus Pendant Leans Confidently Into Theatrical Scale And Worked Detail — Making This A Statement Piece Equally At Home Over Evening Tailoring, Layered With A Silk Slip Dress, Or Anchoring A More Minimalist Daytime Wardrobe With Deliberate Contrast. A 2025 Acquisition With Full Original Presentation Retained.
