FLOWER OF BARCELONA TILE PENDANT (PANOT)

The Flower of Barcelona tile pendant (Panot de Flor de Barcelona) is a necklace with the representation of a flower from some of the tiles in the streets of Barcelona.

The iconic Flor de Barcelona (panot) tile was first documented in 1906 when the Barcelona City Council decided to hold a public competition to pave the streets of the city and put an end to the mud on them. Five models of hydraulic cement tiles were chosen, including the well-known flower. Until recently the design was attributed to the modernist architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch because of its resemblance to the tiles at the entrance to Casa Amatller (Passeig de Gràcia, Barcelona), but studies in 2013 confirmed that it was not the same design.

The pendant can be either 12 mm or 15 mm in diameter and comes with a silver chain (925 silver, rhodium-plated silver or gold-plated silver depending on the piece) of 40 cm in length. If you want the chain to be 45 cm long, please note this in the comments before proceeding to checkout.

Available in 925 sterling silver, rhodium plated sterling silver, 925 sterling silver with 18 K gold plating.
