Bijoux trendy by Pietro Ferrante. Rings, to be precise, defined “street rock tattoo”: they are silver and other materials, unisex, intended for a high number of decibels in the evening, perhaps in combination with the classic black Seventy leather jacket. Curiously, though, the collection of these bijoux is not inspired by the Sex Pistols or the Rolling Stones or also for the Guns N ‘Roses. In contrast, Ferrante has created this mini capsule thinking At the most famous short story by Ernest Hemingway, the old Man and the sea. The chevalier ring is large, with a mouth wide shark open (even if in the novel is a Marlin, a species of swordfish in the Caribbean). Another ring has a fisherman with a skin sunburned. And then a lighthouse, bracelets with anchors and fishing hooks: literary references to the symbols of the sea, for those who love him. Cosimo Muzzano

A good resolution to follow, in fact. This time the idea of Federica Campari, founder of the brand, including 12 pendents steel, combined with a string of little chain metal balls. Each element has a shape or design with imprinted in motto tune with it. For example, the owl asleep with the words “Now I sleep more”. Or the tropical beach with “Now I close with the stress”. I wonder if then the good intentions are really realized or not…
