Amalfi

Descendit ex patribus romanorum.

The first among Italy's great Maritime Republics, Amalfi dominated the trade routes of the Mediterranean, serving as a cultural and economic bridge between the Christian West and the Arab-Byzantine East. Its legacy is bound to innovations that forever transformed the history of navigation, including the Tabula de Amalphi—the oldest Italian maritime code, which remained in force for centuries.

At the heart of the Mediterranean.

Set against a translucent enamel barrel that evokes the depths of the Mediterranean Sea, the Italian peninsula emerges in antique brass micro-casting. A natural sapphire marks the location of Amalfi, celebrating the city that helped transform the sea into a network of trade, exchange and shared knowledge.

A city sculpted in metal.

The architecture of St. Andrew's Cathedral and the Cloister of Paradise is brought to life through a spectacular three-dimensional micro-cast structure. Pointed arches, geometric motifs and Arab-Norman influences celebrate one of the most iconic landmarks of the Amalfi Coast.

Following the horizon.

Hidden beneath the Amalfi Cross – the ancient emblem of the Republic of Amalfi – a working compass pays tribute to Flavio Gioia, the Amalfi navigator who lived between the 13th and 14th centuries. He perfected the instrument by mounting the needle on a pivot and integrating it with the Wind Rose, making it easier to use at sea.
