An architect in love with designer jewels: Francesca Mo, from Milan, is inspired by minimalism and poor art to design and create her objects. With a look to the past, but in the sense that she collects the echoes of childhood: it is no coincidence that the first collection, Vetri di Mare seems to use the bottle glass that children collected on the beach as precious stones. Now they have become earrings, necklaces, bracelets, cufflinks. The second collection, the Harlequins, is inspired by the tiles, always worked by the sea, where the terracotta contained leftovers of colored enamel which are landscapes, shards of colour, clouds. With the Ghiaccio series, rounded shapes give way to a clean cut, with parallelepipeds that make up necklaces and earrings. Again: with the movements of time, the oval or round frames in gold, silver, bronze frame two sheets of glass to contain minimal pieces of old clocks: grids, wheels, hands. In short, Mo is an inexhaustible creative. In the Clessidre collection, yellow, volcanic, white, pink, turquoise and crushed coral sands are transformed into materials for her creations. Francesca Mo’s jewels can be found in the Choses shop in Milan, in the Graziella Gay shop in Milan, in Villa Panza di Biumo in Varese, in Villa Necchi in Milan, in the shop of the Grand hotel Le Sirenuse in Positano (Naples), in the Della spiga shop Jewels in Bergamo, and in the Salt Venice store in Los Angeles (California).
