All the goldsmith mastery of Italian high jewelry is present in the new collection of bracelets by Buccellati, which is not by chance named Dream. There were 12 pieces presented at the Italian Embassy in Paris during Haute Couture Week. And it couldn’t have been otherwise, given that the engraving techniques used, those that have made the name of the Milanese goldsmith famous throughout the world, recall the textures of fabrics and precious workmanship such as silk and lace: from Rigato, which consists of cutting parallel lines on the surface of the metal to obtain a striped effect, to Modellato, which reproduces multiple designs chiseled in three dimensions on a tiny scale, used mainly for decorating edges and for openwork work that creates light embroidery like tulle. And, again, decorations that recall the rose windows of churches and frame precious stones. In short, an immediately recognizable style. In fact, the founder, Mario Buccellati, was the first to introduce the weaving-engraving technique and to reinterpret the great goldsmith masters of the Renaissance, to which the third generation with Andrea Buccellati has added a touch of sumptuous modernity as seen in the Pizzo bracelet with pink sapphires, tasavorites and fancy diamonds.
