Rare 1970s Unoaerre Cancer Zodiac Medallion | Pietro Giampaoli 18K Gold Pendant

Original 1970s zodiac medallion designed by Pietro Giampaoli for Unoaerre—an increasingly hard-to-find piece from one of Italy's most respected gold houses.

The front depicts Cancer, represented by a finely detailed crab with arms outstretched beneath a field of stars. Long associated with intuition, loyalty, and emotional depth, Cancer is one of the zodiac's most recognizable and symbolic signs.

The reverse features Apollo driving his sun chariot across the heavens, accompanied by Nike, goddess of victory and strength. The scene reflects the classical influences and sculptural artistry that made Giampaoli's work so distinctive.

Created as part of Unoaerre's celebrated zodiac series, this medallion showcases the exceptional craftsmanship and enduring design that continue to define Italian gold jewelry from the period.

A meaningful heirloom piece with rich symbolism, history, and unmistakable character.
