La Forza Piccola 18K Yellow Gold Multi-Stone Tarot Card Pendant

NY-based sisters Nicole and Kim Carosella look to vintage designs—they started out by melting and then reimagining their mother’s ‘80s-era jewelry—to create modern pieces with an indulgent whimsy.

Italian for "Strength," La Forza reminds us that true power comes from compassion and love, not brute force. A woman is seen gently stroking and taming a lion’s mouth with her affectionate, beneficent energy. She channels her inner strength and determination to subdue the beast, as opposed to using coercion or force. This card urges the wearer to ‘tame’ certain emotional instincts like anger, rage, or guilt by approaching situations with empathy and forgiveness to overcome life’s obstacles.
