Antonini Extraordinaire

Published on June 16, 2017

The new unique pieces, presented at Couture, by Antonini ♦ ︎
They are described as jewels of sober design, but the adjective should be removed from Antonini’s pieces. Not sober, it’s just design. Better, those of Antonini are jewels with a design rooted in the tradition of the homeland of Italian style, Milan. Modern, essential, futuristic, yes. Certainly not with Renaissance neo-embroideries, neo-baroque frills or neo nordic imitations of other brands. Having said this, it must be added that it is precisely for her design made in Milan that Antonini is appreciated abroad. Here are some examples of the work of designer Sergio Antonini: the unique pieces presented by the brand at Las Vegas Couture, made of gold, sapphires, emeralds, diamonds and pearls.
Extraordinaire is the line of Antonini’s haute couture jewelery: a line of unique pieces that each year is enriched with new small masterpieces designed for those who want a product that is out of the ordinary. Numerous and certified creations, drawn from valuable gems for quality, color and purity, personally chosen by Sergio Antonini. For each stone an ad hoc design that enhances its beauty and light: embedded in white gold and diamonds, emeralds, sapphires are born thanks to contemporary cut frames that enhance their colors and shapes.

Antonini on the Atolli

Antonini and Atolli collection: gold, white diamonds and gold jewels with circular shape ♦
Antonini on the atolls, but without going on vacation. Indeed, to achieve his Atolli collection, the designer Sergio Antonini is committed to introduce a new material, jett. It is a very not very used material, but with its own charm: it is, in fact, a black fossil stone. He had a moment of glory during the Victorian era in England as an ornamental stone or to obtain black pearls. It becomes brilliant if it is polished, but in this case it is also proposed with a matte finish.
Obviously the jett (with two ‘t’) is not the only factor, but coexists with the traditional materials used by the Milanese Maison: gold and diamonds, whites o blacks. The Atolli collection, as it is easy to understand, has circular shapes, ring, curves. The beaches in this case, are in gold, set with small white diamonds, while the center of the atoll is the black jet. Alternatively, it is paved in diamonds, always white. On the inside surface of the jewelry is the house brand, with burnished letters for better readability. Giulia Netrese

Antonini presented the Syracuse collection at Baselworld (we talked about here). Now this line of jewelry inspired by Archimedes, the mathematician who lived in the Sicilian town, is enriched with a new piece. It is a big sine wave bracelet created exclusively for Luisaviaroma (online sales). The cuff replaces the line of diamonds with rubies, in a limited edition. The polished yellow gold structure is marked by a black rhodium basis on which are embedded 53 stones reddish-purple. It remains intact the philosophy of based collection of circles, ellipses, curves that intersect, in homage to the science of geometry, of which Archimedes was one of the most famous theorists. But it is not the only novelty in the future of the Maison in Milano. Incoming, in fact, there is the collection Extraordinaire, born after the Baselworld fair on Sergio Antonini design: will be presented at the upcoming VicenzaOro September (Hall 6, Stand 121).

Return to gold shiny eighties, which exists alongside that brushed, and very geometric lines Antonini with Syracuse collection (we already talked about here: https://gioiellis.com/antonini-tributo-ad-archimede) it goes on tracing to come back on the road of future. It seems a contradiction, and instead it is a philosophy. It is not even an improvisation: “From the design to mokeup of jewels it was been ten months of hard work” he told to gioiellis.com Sergio Antonini, the Milanese designer of Maison. As we anticipated, here is the variant in white gold with rabbets diamond in different sizes, new rings with brilliant files, and then the rings of different sizes to be worn on the same finger at different heights of the phalanges, long earrings in yellow gold ellipse. Incidentally, the name of the collection, Syracuse, is a tribute to Archimedes, that of geometric lines he meant a lot too. This is not, however, the only novelty of the brand with headquarters in the Palazzo Borromeo. We will show it soon.

The section devoted to jewelry is curated by Alba Cappellieri. The goal is to connect the jewel of art and design, plus the temptations dictated by fashion. Between craft and technology, they are on display Italian jewelry worn by white plaster busts: the set is truly amazing. By the way: we said plaster busts, because the jewels are all of the same type, ie necklaces. There are unique pieces or with a particular interest. An example: Calla, an ebony with three elements in pavé diamonds by Vhernier. It consists of a single element which, repeated, it chases. It’s made in several versions, including a version with all rose gold elements, a kogolong and rose gold, a full pavé diamonds, it has become an icon of the brand. But the represented brands are many, from Bulgari to Crivelli, from Antonini at Pomellato. Monica Battistoni

Antonini, a tribute to Archimedes

Published on February 27, 2016

Showroom

A small preview of the new collection that Antonini will present at Baselworld 2016. It’s named Syracuse. A tribute to the Sicilian town? Not exactly: it is a dedication to the father of geometry, Archimedes, who lived in Syracuse and in this old town developed those theorems that still bear his name and are used. The brilliant scientist and mathematician, also specializes in optics and mechanics, has allowed, after all, also the realization of the jewels such as those presenting Antonini: circles, ellipses, curves that intersect forming crosses and orbits. Fortunately for wear the jewels you are not required to geometry exam: you can simply admire the soft golden straight evolutions dotted with diamonds. The collection includes a cuff, but also rings of different sizes that can be combined together on the same finger at different heights of the phalanges, thanks to the larger diameter and narrower. Gold can be yellow or white, even with a fully pavé version. You can say: thank Archimedes. Matilde de Bounvilles

The style of the new line is as the capsules Mosaici, and Extraordinaire Collection (https://gioiellis.com/extraordinaire-antonini), with a variant of cocktail ring, gold and stones set in a concave frame, style chevalier.

Anelli con diamanti e zaffiri della collezione Mosaic

The Collection Extraordinaire by Antonini is enriched with new creations. The name of the line of these jewels is indicative: the pieces are not duplicated, and are numbered, certified, designed personally by Sergio Antonini. New features include the capsule collection Mosaics, which includes four cocktail ring with diamonds and sapphires and a pendant with a black braided chain. Antonini emphasizes the creative character of the pieces: rings have a concave rose gold surface, matt and polished by hand. Inside this little recess is a diamond champagne pavé, where are placed natural sapphires. The effect is of a bright basin in which float small islands colored. The pendant and a ring are made with the use of sapphires of various sizes blue and blue on a structure in white gold matt natural. The second ring includes intense pink sapphire, the third green and blue sapphires. Then there is the Mosaic Diamonds, a ring with a pavé diamond with 113 silver mist of varying sizes and more 20 largest diamonds rose cut. “For these rings I worked with curved surfaces and a base of cobblestones to emphasize the beauty of pastel-colored sapphires. The result is incredible, their color changes with the different angles of light. I experimented with different finishes of gold, using the rhodium black under the pavé diamonds and gold opaque in its natural color, “says Sergio Antonini. These jewels were presented in preview at the Russian press in early October in the boutique Antonini in Moscow Smolensky Passage. And they are now available to international audiences. M.d.B.

Black and white, or better, the gold in its natural shade. Antonini shows at Baselworld Fair its line Black & White. The collection focuses mainly on gold white, left in its natural hue without plating of rhodium. The result are jewelry with soft colors, with shades they accord to the glitter of diamonds. Rings, pendants and earrings have a tapered shape, but above all, it affects the ingenious interweaving of the circular forms: a metal circle contrasted with a pavé of diamond blacks or whites. Antonini remembers this collection some atmospheres of the seventies, but with an injection of technical innovation and more. Here are pictures and prices. Giulia Netrese
