” THE SEA”

The water element has always been essential for life, as well as in the seas also on earth.
From the deepest abysses to the highest peaks, what appears to us as the best work of art is always her: “Nature”
This jewel is a small tribute to the marine world which, like a marvelous casket, holds multiple forms of life and colors in perfect balance.
The submerged nature, which fascinates us so much, is just like a jewel,

there is always something that arouses our emotion …

Jewel dedicated to the beauty of nature and imagination, clearly inspired by the Art Nouveau style, it uses maple seeds made from yellow gold and finely fire-enamelled with amber shades as an aesthetic element; they are the extension of the face of a small mask placed on the center of the necklace, they open outwards as if they were the wings of a dragonfly, wings of the imagination that represent a delicate beauty in a surreal way, the whole thing is adorned with Swiss and brown cut diamonds and pendant drops in smoky quazo – cut briolet.
The continuation of the necklace is a chain also made entirely by hand, inspired by models in vogue during the Belle Epoque.

AMONG MEDUSA’S SNAKES

The face of Medusa, wrapped in the same reptiles that surround her head, is modeled by engraving entirely by hand in lava stone from Vesuvius. Medusa gives all her charm through her screaming expression, which as per legend, petrifies those who cross her gaze.
Yellow gold snakes and small cognac diamonds are an integral part of this pendant, which can also be used as a brooch, a unique piece that represents a journey between mythology and legend in a jewel that evokes ancient stories.

Luxury pendant/brooch: “The Mask”

29 September 2020 No Comments

The combination of different styles is something that has always fascinated me, giving a double or more meanings to a jewel makes it unique and interesting, this is the case of this pendant/brooch, the mask subject, carved on pink coral from the Pacific Ocean depicts a mask that recalls the carnival figures but in particular the face of Pulcinella, icon of the Neapolitan city.
It is therefore a jewel with a clear reference to a Mediterranean style, the theme of farce linked to the mask is further accentuated by the ornamental part in white gold, which due to its shape recalls the headdress of a jester and another style is introduced of workmanship, the metal worked in tulle thanks to the fretwork technique, that imitation of the textures of a fabric that were so fashionable from the mid-1800s onwards.
A mask with different aspects, as it should be… A jewel that crosses different places and styles…

Luxury pendant/brooch: “Coral satyr”

29 September 2020 No Comments

A figure from ancient Greek-Roman mythology with hybrid features, a human aspect with goat details, the Satyr depicted in this pendant has a smiling appearance, as if to convey immediate joy. Obtained from a part of red coral, it immediately leads back to a marine territory, land and islands which were an integral part of the two ancient civilizations mentioned above.
Its being a semi-divine figure of the woods has given inspiration to the creation of the decorative part in yellow gold, which while adapting to the shape of the coral keeps its characteristic workmanship clearly visible by reproducing the natural veins of a vegetable, a green shell of a wild hazelnut .
The shiny gold part alternates with the opaque one almost as if to create a satyr’s garment, a soft hat, a tie-related dress.
An imaginative game for a pendant/brooch with a unique charm…

IN THE HEART OF THE SEA

IN THE HEART OF THE SEA

The jewel, made of white gold, combines materials of different origins, another example of union between sea and land, a pink shell and a precious black Tahiti pearl are in fact set through a refined frame of the noble metal,
further adorned by the presence of some small blue diamonds.
The pink element is precisely the heart of the Caribbean shell from which it was made, a soft and delicate shade that holds the natural jewel that comes from the sea, a beautiful black pearl from Polynesia. The gold frame follows a soft and sinuous line like a delicate wave that wraps and embeds the shell, the blue diamonds create small luminous points of that intense color which further contributes to evoking the thalassic environment.
A unique jewel closely linked to the sea, colors and shapes in perfect harmony destined to cross the time…

Flower of love

29 September 2020 No Comments

The jewel, a small pendant, is made by combining precious yellow gold with a marvel of the sea, coral, the latter meticulously hand-engraved in the shape of a rose with very delicate red petals.
There are many meanings of the noble flower depending on its color, certainly red has always been linked to love. The gold frame, previously modeled in wax, represents the marked veins of a vegetable bark that surrounds the flower.
A tribute to the sentiment that feeds life in an aesthetic union with a clear reference to the beauty of nature.
