Barilla Pasta Jewelry Now Exists & Omg, You Need To See These Necklaces

Do you believe you are what you eat? How about you are what you wear? If you combine those two sayings, you get a line of jewelry inspired by your favorite foods! Delicacies Jewelry specializes in silver and gold culinary charms, pendants, and bracelets, featuring some of your favorite foods like corn, avocados, and now, pasta. Each food symbolizes a special life meaning and message that you can wear close to your heart.

Delicacies Jewelry collaborated with pasta company Barilla to make sure each piece was truly fashioned after different types of pasta. Because Barilla has a passion not only for pasta but for its customers, it only made sense that Delicacies teamed up with them on this Al Dente collection.

The entire line is made in the finest sterling silver with each pasta charm featuring incredible detail to it. If you love bowtie noodles, the Farfalle pendant almost looks like a real piece of pasta!

Pasta lovers will go crazy for how real these pieces look, but there's more to the sterling silver pasta necklaces than just its uncanny likeness to the real thing. The Al Dente line is special to Delicacies Jewelry because of a deep, historical meaning. Because the Greeks and Etruscans were hand grinding pasta 3,000 years before the Common Era, the fine skills of pasta making represent craftsmanship, chemistry, and "the human ability to manipulate the environment and make sustenance with our hands," according to Delicacies Jewelry website.

And because pasta is a cross-cultural phenomenon (a food that brings different types of people together in sometimes very different settings than they are used to), Delicacies Jewelry describes their new line as being a symbol of human history and commonality.

Delicacies Jewelry wants its customers to wear the Al Dente collection to "remember ages past and draw on that history when you feel the world coming unraveled."

While Delicacies Jewelry has always specialized in food charms like corn, pineapples, and avocados, customers are going to love these new pasta additions.
