The first jewelery collection by Martina Mondadori Sartogo was made in Afghanistan. It went immediately sold out ♦ ︎
His father was one of the descendants of a great Italian editorial dynasty, the Mondadori. She, Martina Mondadori Sartogo, continued on the path of Leonardo Mondadori, who passed away years ago, and she founded a sophisticated magazine (of fashion? style? life?) based in London, Cabana. Not only that, she has also landed on Moda Operandi’s online showcases: Cabana has also become a jewelery brand. With a peculiarity, its first collection was entirely made in Afghanistan. An unusual choice for those who do not remember the Asian country before the tormented history of the last decades. Afghanistan still retains a goldsmith tradition, naturally different from the European one. The jewels offered by Cabana are therefore simpler, in gold plated brass, with semi precious stones, such as turquoise, and pearls. But they make a great impact. The Afghan collection consists of large fabric necklaces with elaborate pendant, wide bracelets and earrings. The average cost of a bracelet is about $ 750. Or, better, the price was that: the jewels are fast sold out. Giulia Netrese
