The jewels of Gilberto Cassola, Maison of Valenza that has just landed on the 1stdibs platform ♦ ︎

Is it possible, in 2017, to practice the profession of jewelry craftsman, at a high level, without being squeezed between the big brands that offer mass jewelry and famous Maison that enjoy eternal fame? Gilberto Cassola & C, a small company from Valenza, tries to show that there is also a different way to make jewelry. The Gilberto Cassola & Jewelery Factory was founded in 1965 in Valenza (Alessandria, home of Italian high jewelery) by the homonymous jeweler who is still in business, but flanked by his son, Graziano Cassola, who travels the world to offer jewels in gold with diamonds and precious stones of the highest quality and design.

In particular, the Piedmontese Maison seems to specialize in building refined jewels with stone pavé. Which form, in some cases, designs, even those of national flags. The production, as mentioned, remains artisanal, in the laboratory of the Piedmontese town. But the company does not just offer its own pieces: it also works on commission for individual jewels or for entire collections, as well as selling jewels on the 1stdibs online site.

Marco Dal Maso’s explosion of joy

Published on November 2, 2021

Marco Dal Maso has characterized a large part of his production towards the male gender: designer jewels, strong, robust, precious. But it has long since expanded its horizons to even the most crowded (from a commercial point of view) female world. The style of the Venetian designer remains the same, with the search for innovative shapes, not at all traditional but, at the same time, wearable with ease. They are high quality jewels, in 18-karat gold with the addition of diamonds and, as in the case of the Explosion of Joy collection, also with the addition of a few touches of enamel for some pieces.

On the other hand, Marco Dal Maso is an adventurous type, who likes to explore, experience and learn about new places and cultures, as his story also testifies. After the University of Padua with a specialization in psychology and marketing, and an experience with the Bible of the sector, The Business of Fashion, he collaborated with Jacob & Co from Switzerland, traveled, collaborated from China for Harper’s Bazaar. In short, a vast wealth of experience before returning to Italy and opening his own Maison, with the family business DML behind him, of which he is the creative director.

Bees, the best side of nature: industrious, ingenious, useful. And also are interesting from an aesthetic point of view: the Italian Maison Misis dedicates its latest collection to bees. The geometry of the hives, with the classic hexagons, and the tapered shape of the insect that produces the honey are interpreted in 925 silver in natural or golden color and enamels, with a sprinkling of cubic zirconia. Earrings, bracelets, rings and necklaces play on the theme and turn into a rather large collection.

Misis is a company in the goldsmith district of Vicenza (Italy), born from the initiative of Bruno Piaserico and the creativity of his wife Maria Ester. Over time, silver processing has left the classic and somewhat tired forms of jewelry on the ground to take off in the world of fantasy, with very creative jewels. Misis, has reached the second generation and is managed by Alberto Piaserico, son of the founder, produces many new collections every year, always inspired by nature and its various facets with the use of precious stones, iridescent enamels, silver and gold. The idea is to use silver, considered less precious than gold, to create high quality jewelry.

It is not the time to break free from the chains, but only if it is a question of jewels such as those proposed by Bluespirit, a brand of the Morellato group. The jewelry brand, in fact, has introduced a large variety of models in the catalog that are based on the timeless chain, never gone out of fashion and, for a couple of years, even more in vogue on the wave of rap music. The chain, in fact, is an ancient jewel, already used in 5000 BC. by Egyptian women: this shape has always combined the pleasure of wearing a jewel with a practical purpose: in some cases the jewelry chains have been used as a sturdy lace. But this is not the case.

The chains for the necklaces, earrings, rings or bracelets offered by Bluespirit are in 18-carat yellow or white gold. Despite the size of some models, they are all very light jewels, thanks to the processing that reduces the thickness of the metal. A chain for necklace of 50 centimeters, so to speak, costs just over 500 euros.
