“Brier” Rouge Gucci Bee Button Necklace.

The house of Gucci’s classic symbol is that of the bee.  Why, you might ask.  Well,  the bee on the Gucci logo is an homage to a dazzling cache of 300 gold-and-garnet bees found in the tomb of fifth-century monarch King Childeric. European nobility has used the bumblebee as a symbol of nobility for centuries.

The Gucci Bee is a symbol of luxury, standing tall as the brand’s signature mark. It has come to represent opulence, refinement, and elegance; qualities attributed to this iconic Italian fashion house.

From its humble beginnings, it has evolved into one of the world’s most recognisable logos – adorning everything from purses to clothing lines. Its popularity has grown over the years due to its simple but powerful design that captures the essence of what makes Gucci unique: timelessness, sophistication, and craftsmanship.

The bee itself embodies these values perfectly, drawing its inspiration from ancient Rome where bees were seen as symbols of wealth and success. As such, it perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the Gucci brand.

As you may have already seen my very popular Gucci bee button earrings, that were once worn on colourful cotton blouses, this button is from a Gucci jacket.  It’s much larger than the buttons I use to create the earrings, so it works perfectly as the feature in this pendant.

I’ve added this delicate acorn edge to the pendant, to give the whole creation a natural, earthy tone.  This piece has been hand crafted in solid sterling silver and comes complete with the fine sterling silver chain.

Important Information

Please note, all buttons used in my creations are antique, vintage, or second hand, and will naturally show signs of their previous lives.  Such as gentle surface marks, tiny dents, enamel wear, or soft tarnishing.
Each button is carefully tested and securely set, but as these treasures can be well over a century old, they remain delicate and should be treated with the same care as any fine antique.

While the jewellery itself is professionally handcrafted from solid precious metals using traditional goldsmith techniques, designed to last a lifetime, the historic buttons, pearls, and crystals within these designs are inherently more fragile. Their age and patina are what make them so special.
To preserve your piece, please avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals, perfume, or impact. Treat it gently, and it will bring you many years of beauty and admiration.

As each piece is entirely handmade and one of a kind, I’m unable to offer refunds, exchanges, or replacements for changes of mind, or for age related wear such as button cracking, crystal or pearl loss, or plating lift that may occur over time.

If you ever have concerns about caring for your jewellery, please don’t hesitate to contact me for personalised advice.

Designer buttons have no affiliation with the original fashion houses. I take great care to ensure all branded buttons are genuine and sourced from reputable second hand suppliers & fashion historians.  Porsha Bella designer button jewellery is not sold on behalf of, or in connection with, any brand.
