The Totême jewellery guide: Signature hoops, Byzantine chains and the fine line
Totême jewellery comes in two tiers that share one line. The fashion jewellery is handmade in Italy from recycled brass plated in recycled 24kt gold, and rhodium for the silver pieces, with resin, silk, glass and stone: the Signature hoops, bracelet, ring and collar, the Byzantine chains, the drop necklaces in onyx, jade, tiger’s eye and crystal, the Sculpted resin collars and the silk scarf collars and bracelets. The fine jewellery is recycled 18kt yellow and white gold and sterling silver crafted in Arezzo: the Forzatina and Crew-neck chains, the Bezel diamond studs and hoops, the Cigar midi ring, the Infinity pearls and the Mini diamond cord bracelets. 101 jewellery pieces on Luxury Shoes , $403 to $4,150, median $980. This page is each line, the metals, the sizing and the care.

The Signature pieces
The Signature hoops are the house’s bold oval hoop in gold-plated brass, some with marble-effect resin, in regular and petite sizes; the Signature bracelet and ring take the same profile with a hinged construction and push button; the Signature collar is the necklace version. These are the pieces to buy first.
The Byzantine chains
A modern reading of the classical Byzantine link: articulated, rope-like, in 24kt gold-plated brass, rhodium-plated brass and black enamel, as bracelets sized T1 to T4 and as necklaces that can be worn long, crossbody and wrapped.
The drops and the Infinity line
The onyx, jade, tiger’s eye and crystal drops hang from fine Y-shaped chains and sit as earrings, each set with a Swarovski crystal; the Infinity bead and pearl necklaces on gold-vermeil links can be worn long, doubled and joined to the matching choker.
The fine line
Crafted in Arezzo, the Italian goldsmithing town, from recycled 18kt gold and sterling silver: the Forzatina necklace and the Crew-neck chain with their lozenge-edged oval links, the Bezel diamond studs, single earring and huggy hoops, the Cigar diamond midi ring, the Mini diamond bracelets on a cotton cord. Hallmarked and stamped.
The silk scarf jewellery
The house monogram scarf reimagined as a collar and a bracelet, wrapped in a chain and closed with a clasp, in the fashion line.
Sizing and care
Bracelets and necklaces come in T1 to T4 by circumference and rings on the French scale 42 to 56; Luxury Handbags lists each piece in one size, so add the size you need in the order notes at checkout. Put jewellery on last, take it off before water, wipe it after wear. The care guide has the rest.
