Qayten was born in Bologna, far from the traditional Italian goldsmith centers, in 2014. The result is almost miraculous: it arrived at the top of the jewellery industry in a short time and there are good prospects for a this miracle to continue. By the way, the Qayten name is a word in Sanskrit, the ancient language of India, which means “origin.” And perhaps it alludes to the road leading to the origin of the creative process. The result is an explosive mixture of luxury and design, new forms and unusual materials, such as the rare Indonesian wood matched with gold and diamonds. It is high contemporary jewelery. As the Bologna necklace, made of white gold covered in diamonds, which has the shape of a wave. Qayten wants to explore the farthest reaches of the jewelry, but of course with the intention of producing wearable jewelry and possibly incorporating a wow effect. We must admit that often it achieves this goal. As in the Paisley collection, with jewels that have an oriental fragrance that goes with a typical Italian construction technique. Or in the Bloom collection, where the jewels are transformed into light and bright flowers. Alessia Mongrando
