Leo Pizzo, the charm of the snake

Snakes from the Animalia collection by Leo Pizzo: the charm of the animal symbol of temptation ♦

The animalia or animalier collections are a jewelery classic. Perhaps because the first jewels worn by mankind were made with animal elements, such as teeth or bones. Or, perhaps, because the animal world continues to have a great fascination for humans. Leo Pizzo, an Italian jeweler based in Valenza, proposed new pieces from his Animalia collection to Baselworld.

In particular, the collection celebrates the snake, an emblem of seduction and renewal, as well as one of the most used symbols.

The snake is reproduced with different materials: rose gold and diamonds, white gold and diamonds, with sapphires, or with small emeralds. Snakes have one or more coils within which to wrap their fingers, neck or wrist. La Maison also offers coordinated pieces, such as the brooch to match the ring or to wear alone.
