Jewelery inspired by the Russian tradition of Axenoff. For those who love the romantic atmosphere of War and Peace ♦ ︎
The tradition of Russian culture and costume is part of the history of the arts. From the books of Lev Tolstoy to the paintings by Ivan Glazunov, the Russian soul was portrayed by writers and painters. Now also by jewelery. Axenoff Gioielli is a Russian brand, also sold to the West on sites like Moda Operandi, inspired by the Russian royal family and popular traditions. The goal is to create a synthesis between past and present. The designer Petr Aksenov, with a father which was icon painter, has been in touch with the most traditional artistic world since childhood.
Axenoff’s jewels are therefore made of silver and stones such as topaz, onyx, lapis lazy moonstone, turquoise, agate and garnet. But also with more expensive materials such as platinum, gold, diamonds, sapphires and emeralds. But, above all, they take on motives like painted flowers, icons and colors that are the distinctive sign of Russian folk art. With a style that would be loved by heroines of great novels by Aleksandr Sergeyev Puskin or Fedor Dostoyevsky. Perfect for those who feel a bit Anna Karenina. Lavinia Andorno
