Atelier Vm rings with fingerprint

Published on September 27, 2023

Showroom

Fingerprints are not necessarily only important at crime scenes. Even in love, the imprint of the fingertips can be a sign to be preserved. The Milanese brand Atelier Vm thought of this, offering a series of jewels whose protagonist is the curved lines of the hands that characterize the identity of a man or woman. Atelier Vm presented two new wedding rings, which follow a chevalier ring and pendants to add to a necklace or bracelet. Their peculiarity is that they can be personalized with the fingerprints of the person you love, or of the person wearing the jewellery.

Anello chevalier in oro 9 carati con impronta digitale — 9ct gold chevalier ring with fingerprint

The wedding ring is 3 millimeters thick and can accommodate more than two fingerprints, perhaps four or even five, depending on the space available. The price is around 900 euros, 1000 pounds or 1200 dollars. The imprint is imprinted in the 18-karat gold seamlessly and, obviously, makes the jewel unique. In the case of wedding rings it is also a symbol that seals the life of a couple. The digital impression is acquired at all Atelier Vm sales points, where the cast of the fingers is made. There are no limits for those who want a jewel with a fingerprint, except age, which must be over five years.

The idea of Maman et Sophie is by the Florentine designer Elisabetta Carletti, who founded the jewelry company with the help of her husband and partner of the Maison, Federico Lastrucci, who passed away in 2019. The adventure of Maman and Sophie began in 2008, when Elisabetta Carletti decided to leave the profession of lawyer started in a large Florence firm. The birth of her first daughter, Sofia, left her time to reflect: she started designing jewelry, her passion, and making the first prototypes in silver rose gold plated. The name of the company, Maman et Sophie, is the photograph of that period. And the formula chosen, simple jewels, at a reduced price, with light and minimal style, was successful.

The elegant, eclectic, geometric jewels of James Taffin de Givenchy ♦

Take a look at this unique jewel: two topaz stones mounted along with diamonds on a thin flexible 18K rose gold. The necklace has been drew by a French transplanted to New York, James Taffin de Givenchy, grandson of the legendary Hubert. James fell in love with stones after being at the head of the jewelry department of Christie’s on the West Coast of the US. His work is inspired by that of the great French designers of jewelry, such as Raymond Templier and Suzanne Belperron. He opened his boutique and studio on Madison Avenue, in the Big Apple. With this shape, the necklace published by the New York Times, it can do without the clip.

Collana con due topazi e diamanti — Necklace with two topaz and diamonds

James Taffin is skilled in reinterpreting the ancient stones and rare to new forms, in very original way. For example, in the intentions of the designers this necklace reminds an exclamation mark abstract. The two pink topaz are, from the Victorian era, they are with slightly different shades: one is pear-shaped, 3.5-carat; the larger one with shades of mauve, 39 carats, has an oval cut. Nestled in the jewel there are also 105 diamonds. To set up this piece of jewelry, it took 60 hours. But the designer has other interests: true to its French origins and at its name, he’s interesting to environmental scents and fragrances. In 2011, Barneys New York has launched a capsule Taffin Home Fragrance collection of scented candles handmade in France and presented in containers bakelite designed by Givenchy.

A Baby collection that adults like. It is the one proposed by Poesia Gioielli, a young brand from Crieri. The Baby collection focuses on the colors of the stones mounted on rings, earrings and necklaces with pendants. The line is built around the navette cut of stones such as amethyst, peridot, aquamarine and rhodolite. The gems are used together with an 18-karat rose gold with a very strong nuance. The whole, shades of stones and very pink gold, offers a clear and linear impression. The rings are offered in different versions. All have the navette-cut colored stone in pride of place. In some models the stone is accompanied by a small diamond placed close, next to the gem or a little further away.

Furthermore, the stones can obtain light, and greater brilliance, even from the lower surface thanks to the particular setting of the ring.

Wedding rings, how to choose

Wedding rings, guide to choosing it (and 5 ideas to find the right wedding ring for you) ♦

Jewels have always played a decisive role in relationships, not only from the most frivolous point of view, as one of the most appreciated gifts a man can give a woman, but also from a much deeper aspect, of union between two people. That’s why choosing a wedding ring to share with your life partner shouldn’t be taken lightly.

The ring for the couple’s most important day, in fact, will be worn (hopefully) for a lifetime. In short, the choice must be decided after thinking well. And also keep in mind that the ring must be combined with different clothes, different seasons, in the evening as in the morning. In short, it must always go well.

Anello di fidanzamento indossato assieme alla fede matrimoniale

So, is it better to choose a classic wedding ring, in simple yellow gold? Or in rose, white or platinum gold? A shiny, satin or diamond wedding ring? Here is a selection of what you can buy on the internet: the wedding ring, like love, has no boundaries. And for the measure? The size of the ring can be easily determined by following these instructions.

1 yellow gold ring. It is like a gray suit, which is good for all occasions. A classic. It never clashes, no one will notice it too much, but don’t think you stand out. There are those who choose a yellow gold band ring precisely because it is a little anonymous, no one will ever have anything to say about your choice, and in 20 years it will do the same. Others, however, find the yellow gold wedding ring too boring. To you the choice.

2 rose gold ring. Years ago, rose gold was considered too flashy and not suitable for marriage. Today this is no longer the case: those who choose pink gold appreciate the warm color of the metal. Among other things, there is not just one type of rose: the color, in fact, depends on the amount of copper that is used in the alloy with gold. The brighter the pink, the more copper will have been used. To be precise, pink gold is usually composed of 75% gold (yellow, therefore), 6.5-5% silver and 18.5-20% copper. Of course, you don’t have to have copper allergies.

3 white gold ring. Discreet, classic, perfect even when complemented by a small diamond set in the band: white gold continues to have a good number of admirers. However, its luster depends on the type of rhodium plating used (this also applies to the other colors of gold). When white gold loses its luster with wear, it risks being confused with silver. But don’t worry: just take it to a jewelry store for a new quick rhodium plating and it will be as good as new.

4 diamond rings. The classic solitaire is usually a ring intended for engagement. In that case, however, the diamond is branded on the outside of the gold band. Nothing prevents, however, that small diamonds can also be used for wedding rings. But in this case they must be placed very discreetly on the ring so as not to become excessively showy.

5 platinum rings. There is not only gold: platinum is a great metal for wedding rings. In addition to being very chic, platinum is also a metal that does not easily cause allergies, and is very resistant. However, it is a little more expensive than gold. Not only that: once worn it is not distinguishable from a normal white gold ring: therefore, if you choose platinum, you don’t have to worry about showing the price.

Then, she widened the field, with an eclectic and counter-current style, which includes jewels such as handcuffs (in rose gold), which are opened by pressing a diamond. There are two different sizes, for him and for her. Boucle Diamant is a rose gold earring that can be transformed into a minimalist ear stud studded with diamonds. Now it offers One Swing earrings, with hoops that are worn in an unusual way. Or a ring with a double evolution in rose gold, which embraces the fingers and ends with two small globes studded with diamonds. Also innovative are the earrings that rest over the ear (hoping they don’t fall?). In general, the jewels have a very minimal design, but also with new ideas. If you like jewelry with a Nordic atmosphere, Kim Hye Mee’s jewelry could be for you.

In Italy there are also those who want to have their religious faith close at hand. Actually, on the finger. Or around the neck. This is the case of the jewels of Tuum, an Umbrian company that caters to those who live the Christian belief intensely. The company was founded in July 2009 in San Giustino (Perugia) by the Tuscans Michele Alberti, 43, former event organizer, and Simone Finocchi, 38, mechanical engineer, designer of agricultural and construction machinery. The idea was to propose jewels that had engraved words related to faith, understood in a very traditional way: the first jewels, bracelets and rings in gold, silver and platinum, had engraved the Latin text of two prayers, Pater Noster and Ave Maria. Even the name of the brand is in Latin: Tuum means yours. The idea proved to be a success.

Also because the jewels were also distributed in the Vatican and thus earned a sort of ideal passport for the Christian world. Over the years the collections and the offer of jewels has expanded. And, even if almost all of the jewels still follow the original idea of prayers or phrases related to religion engraved on the surface, the brand has also launched a small collection, Gaia, which is instead inspired by the values of nature and respect for nature and environment.

Which finger does a wedding ring go on

Published on December 27, 2022

Campus

Do you want to know which finger is the right one to wear a ring? It depends on your hands, but also on the meaning of the ring. Here is a quick guide with things to know on which finger to wear a ring.

The rules for wearing rings: in addition to personal taste, there are some general principles regarding how to wear them. For example, rings with oval or elongated stones look more elegant and visually make the fingers longer and prettier. Large rings and large jewels are not suitable for people with small bodies and hands, who should think about finding lighter alternatives commensurate with their size. Etiquette experts recommend avoiding large, showy rings until 5pm, especially when it comes to expensive jewelry. It is no coincidence that that type of jewel is referred to as a cocktail ring. Finally, it is not superfluous to remember that choosing a beautiful ring is not enough – it is necessary to have clean fingers and nails. A ring draws attention to the hands: it is better to use creams suitable for the skin and properly care for the nails. Wearing numerous rings on one or more fingers was once considered a sign of bad manners. Today this is not the case, as long as you choose well and have thin, tapered fingers.

On which hand to wear the ring? It also depends on the culture and customs of the country where you live. For many oriental peoples, the left hand is Yin (a concept that symbolizes female, moon, darkness, earth and water, passivity and cold) and the right hand Yang (male, light, solar fire, hot). A ring on either finger is equivalent to enabling or enhancing these characteristics.

On the thumb

The ancient Greek associated it with manly dignity. Nowadays, however, wearing the ring on the thumb is a sign of determination and personal achievement by any means possible, of a fiery temperament associated with a strong interest in the sexual sphere. The ring on the left thumb (yin) means assertiveness, a person who is able to express his ideas clearly and convincingly, and the desire to impose his will on others, while on the right (yang) he expresses a flexible and extroverted.

On the index finger

According to the ancients, the index finger was linked to Jupiter and therefore to the concept of authority. Wearing a ring on the index finger would therefore represent the desire for power. On the left hand, however, it would show a desire for transgression. According to the theory of yin and yang, in the first case leadership is sought, while on the right it means being ready to accept the leadership of others and the willingness to take a passive role. But not everyone agrees on this. In any case, it is important that the index is lean, healthy, well-groomed. Wearing a ring on this finger is sure to attract attention.

On the middle finger

This finger expresses the desire to be admired, to boast about: even Marilyn Monroe wore a large diamond ring on her middle finger when she sang to the notes of the famous song Diamonds are girl’s best friends. According to the Yin theory, the ring in the center means that the wearer has the ability to distinguish between right and wrong and is able to make decisions about it, while the concept of yang (right hand) means the inclination to seek guidance from others.

On the ring finger

Indicates the family status of a person. The habit dates back to the ancient Romans: they believed that in this finger there was a nerve that goes straight from the ring finger to the heart. Furthermore, they are the ones who introduced the habit for married women of wearing a ring, as a sign of marriage. Even today, the ring on the ring finger indicates that the wearer is a person who has already made a sentimental commitment to another. In the yin tradition, wearing a ring on the ring finger means being creative and resourceful, able to solve problems easily, while in the yang side it is the desire to teach others how they can be creative and use their skills for their own profit.

On pinky finger

It is the symbol of artistic and creative quality, of eloquence and persuasion, of cunning and resourcefulness. Not only that: the chevalier ring worn on the little finger is a sign of noble ancestry: in this case the ring has engraved the noble family crest. In the East, a ring on the little finger indicates a distinctly communicative but also manipulative yin, while on the right hand, yang, it signals one’s ability to grasp everything that everyone else is trying to say.

Jewels for the skateboard generation, for tattoo lovers, for hipsters and cool: Vitaly is the Canadian brand founded in 2011 by Shane Vitaly Foran. Her jewels, very street, deliberately raw, have conquered about 200 retailers in Canada, the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia in four years. The brand has become synonymous with fashion & trend, with its rings in stainless steel, titanium, tungsten and ceramic. “We are the iPod generation. We love to affirm ourselves, but we have nothing to prove »is Vitaly’s mantra.

On the other hand, the company was born almost by chance, after a trip by Shane Vitaly Foran to Ubud, on the island of Bali. Shane returns to Toronto and his fellow skaters, tattoo artists and DJs (apparently) go crazy for the double black wooden rings Shane had made there. Since then, with friends like Jason Readman, a helicopter pilot who converted to fashion, or the creative director Jack Vitiello, Shane has curated collections and, above all, has gained fame among a certain public. Of course, these bijoux are intended only for a specific type of user. What, for example, can appreciate Ecstasy, a two-piece lip jewel with a fang-like appearance, or Fluid, a set of stackable cast rings.

The noble ring of Victor Meyer

The rings and pendants of the German Maison Victor Mayer ♦

For two decades (1989-2009), the renowned German jewelry company Victor Mayer has been authorized to create Fabergé jewelry under exclusive worldwide license. This is to say that the goldsmith’s expertise of the Pforzheim brand crosses national borders. The company has an ancient history and it is not surprising that in its catalog it also has a collection called Chevalière. The jewelry line is based on the classic ring that traditionally bears the noble seal. The ring also served (in the past) to imprint their signature on the sealing wax with which the letters were sealed. The nobility, in fact, was often illiterate and the emblem was an elegant substitute for the signature.

Over the centuries, the chevalière ring was then worn simply for elegance, often on the little finger or index finger, even by those without blue blood. He was snobbish or, if you prefer, cool. The fact is that it has been re-evaluated, as in the case of the Victor Mayer collection. The rings are unisex and available in two sizes. The characteristic of these rings is the guilloché processing: it is a type of repetitive design, in this case also on lacquer, with engraved lines, linear or wavy, surrounded by a crown of diamonds. In addition to the rings Victor Mayer also offers cufflinks for men and also for women. Recently the Maison has also proposed a series of opening medallions, always made with the same goldsmith’s technique.

Anello in oro rosa e bianco, smalto, 25 diamanti

Two words (but you could write a novel) on the German brand. It was founded by Victor Mayer (1857-1946), artist and art lover (it is now owned by Marcus Oliver Mohr). After training as an engraver on metal plates, Mayer in 1877 was one of the first students of the new Grand-Ducal school of Arts and Crafts. He spent three years in Vienna as an engraver, where he learned the guilloche and enamelling technique. Back in Baden Baden, he founded his own jewelry factory. The German spa town, the summer capital of Europe during the Belle Epoque, launched it definitively. After the difficult tests of the First and Second World War, the survivors of the family had the strength to start off again.

The great seven beauties of Cartier

Amodea, anello in platino con diamanti, rubini e spinello viola

The beauties of the world are many. To those notes, the 97 pieces of the new high jewelery collection signed by Cartier are now added. The collection is called, in fact, Beautés du Monde and consists of necklaces, bracelets, earrings and seven rings, which we are talking about today. They are special rings, which deserve a separate space and are inspired by nature and the planet, but also by myths: Amodea, Viridia, Karet, Mizuchi, Scilla, Tilasm and Yasifan. It goes without saying that each ring is a unique piece, a masterpiece of jewelry.

Anello Viridia, con Viridia diamante verde taglio Asscher da 1,25 carati e diamanti bianchi

Viridia, for example, is a ring with a rare 1.25-carat Asscher-cut green diamond in the center. Colored diamonds are very rare and, among the shades, green is one of the most unobtainable: the color is due to the gem’s exposure to natural radiation. The processing is particularly delicate, not because it is dangerous, but because whoever cuts the diamond must be careful to avoid making the diamond lose its color.

L’anello

Yasifan, anello in oro bianco, con tormalina verde, rubini e diamanti

The Yasifan ring, on the other hand, uses a large 28.43-carat Paraiba cabochon tourmaline from Mozambique, surrounded by rubies and diamonds. Pink sapphires and pink diamonds set on platinum stand out on the Tilasm ring, a talisman in Hindi. Scylla instead refers to the terrible sea monster between Sicily and the Italian Peninsula evoked in the Odyssey. In this case it is much more harmless: a combination of white gold, brown diamonds and yellow diamonds.

Tilasm, anello in platino, con zaffiri rosa e diamanti rosa

Amodea is also inspired by an oriental mythical creature, a sea dragon, interpreted with rubies and diamonds in a spiral with a purple spinel in the center. Mizuchi is a combination of platinum, tourmaline, emerald, onyx and diamond. She wears the colors of the earth, the sea and the sky. Mizuchi, legendary snake-like dragon from Japanese mythology, combines tourmaline and emeralds on platinum. Finally, Karet is geologically inspired and uses two double-centered triangular diamonds, with a striking volumetric effect.

The element of luck accompanies everyone’s life. Who knows if the new Breil collection, a brand launched years ago by Binda Italia, will really bring luck to the wearer. In fact, the new collection is called My Lucky Collection and features an unprecedented line in golden steel and cubic zirconia that differs considerably from the brand’s usual style, more tuned to aggressive designs. The collection consists of 11 pieces, including necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings, designed to be worn and combined in different combinations and in some cases transformable.

The collection plays on the elongated shape of the eye, suggested through a simple design, with marquise-cut cubic zirconia that are added to the choker with thin chain (price: € 59.90), to a double-strand bracelet (49.90) , a double ring (49.90), pendant earrings with four removable fringes (69.90) and a set of three stud earrings (49.90). The oval element is placed in the center of the three-strand necklace (69.90) and the matching bracelet (49.90), as well as in three thin bands that create a set (69.90). The bolder set consists of a necklace (69.90) defined by an almond-shaped chain, a shimmering hoop earring (39.90) and a singular pair of S-shaped earrings (59.90). The capsule was designed in collaboration with Giulia Salemi, a young Italian presenter and model of Iranian origins.

For example, his collection features rare opals, which combine with other stones forming an ever-changing kaleidoscope of colors suspended.

But Christina Soubli, a Greek designer, daughter of art, thinks of the Hellas of the gods, of mythology and Olympus, but also of the simple and immediate design of the Nordic countries, as in the Basic Collection, up to the baroque shapes which remember aesthetics Oriental.

A Vertigo for Mattioli

Rings/Showroom

A new Mattioli collection arrives: it’s called Vertigo. Vertigo is the impression that you, or the environment around you, is moving or rotating. This sensation may be barely noticeable, or it may be so severe that it causes difficulty maintaining balance and carrying out daily activities. But vertigo is also a term used to indicate something pleasant, surprising, exciting. It is very likely that the new jewelry line of the Turin Maison refers to this second interpretation.

In any case, Vertigo is a prêt-à-porter collection in a minimalist style. The jewels, in fact, use the geometric shapes of the sixties and seventies in a selection of rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces that can be mixed and worn together. Mattioli’s new jewels are available in 18-karat rose gold and combined with baguette-cut semi-precious stones, such as amethysts, iolites, rhodolites, london topaz and sky.

Which is also a typical Tuscan name: in fact, Dvccio is based in Sansepolcro, near Arezzo, one of the Italian jewelry districts. Not only that: the brand is also the expression of a company that has worked for years as a supplier of chains and more: the Egr Italia Group, which gave birth to the Dvccio brand, chaired by Giovanni Selvi, while Roberta Marinelli is director delegate.

Among other things, Dvccio is also planning a brand extension with Dvccio Jewel Bag, an innovative line of jewel bags that can be personalized with your own initial.

The designer is Marie-Hélène Loubrielle, a French cosmopolitan born in Paris, grew up in New York, Sao Paulo and Singapore, influenced by the style of the great American jewelry designer like Seamann Schepps and Verdura, and fascinated by Brazilian gems and Asian exotic materials.

The perfect design of a shingle urchin, brought back from Comoros, was the driving force to try to make it a jewel embedding a star ruby cabochon. Hence the idea of a collection of one of a kind pieces and the name of the brand, two materials widely used in jewelry in the early twentieth century: Shagreen is the skin shark or race skin, used for grinding hard materials such as ivory and ebony, and turtle. The tortoises are fortunately protected but as proofs Loubrielle, colors and shapes of shells are much as beautiful.
