In just a few years, the Isola district of Milan has changed from an old and neglected semi-central area to a trendy area. It is no coincidence that many artisans and designers have moved to the streets immediately behind the Porta Garibaldi station. Here, in Via Thaon, there is Claudio Calestani’s atelier, which cannot be said to lack somewhat extemporaneous initiative: his jewellery, aimed at both a male and female audience, ranges across very contemporary universes. With strands ranging from motorbikes to rock, up to martial arts. Bracelets, cufflinks, rings, necklaces and buckles that Peter Fonda from Easy Rider would probably have liked.
