Madonna del Ghisallo is a hill near Lake Como, Italy with a church that sits atop it. The hill is part of several prominent bike races and became a popular stop for cyclists. A local priest proposed that La Madonna del Ghisallo be declared the patroness of cyclists, and this proclamation was confirmed by Pope Pius XII. Today the spot hosts a shrine, small cycling museum, and an eternal flame for cyclists who have died.
This collaboration with DC-based designer Kate Ahern features her drawing turned into a gorgeously detailed pendant featuring a radiant Madonna and bicycle surrounded by tiny gear chain links.
May the Patron Saint of Bicyclists watch over and protect anyone who wears this piece of jewelry.

Of all the Madonna del Ghisallo pendants out there, this one is hands down my favorite. The finishing and fine details are just immaculate – exuding quality! The photos really do not do justice; the pendant is absolutely stunning. To top it all off, Lori was amazing and communicative, making sure my partner and I got our pendants in time for our bikepacking trip. Super happy!
