Damaskos Archaic Ram Head 18K Gold Braided Bracelet

The Krios bracelet is built around a single defining motif: two sculpted ram heads, each facing outward at the terminals of a hand-woven 18K gold chain. In archaic Greek culture, the ram was a symbol of honesty, courage, and loyalty — qualities rendered here in solid gold rather than words.

The bracelet’s chain is hand-woven using a traditional braiding technique, a process that cannot be replicated by machine. Each link is shaped, aligned, and joined by hand in the Damaskos atelier. The ram head terminals are individually cast and finished, with surface detail that reads clearly at close range. The piece weighs 15 grams of 18K gold, giving it the presence of a substantial object without excess weight on the wrist.

Damaskos is an Athens-based atelier whose work draws directly from ancient Greek goldsmithing — not as a stylistic reference, but as a working method. Techniques like hand-braiding and sculptural casting have been practiced on this peninsula for over two millennia. The Krios bracelet functions as everyday jewelry or as a considered piece for formal occasions. Also available with lion head terminals.
