Ferragamo new Wedge

Published on October 15, 2016

Showroom

The Wedge collection by Ferragamo, inspired by the famous shoe with a wedge rainbow.
Already in the eighteenth century Venetian ladies used shoes with wedge, the thick sole capable of elevating the stature of the wearer. This special kind of shoe has had mixed fortunes but, in essence, has never gone out of fashion: it also bears witness to one of the objects of desire signed Ferragamo, the Rainbow Wedge, wedge shoe and rainbow colors. That shoe so different from the others, and for this so coveted, has turned into jewelry with the new Wedge Collection. The collection consists of ring, bracelet, pendant and earrings. The pieces are made of silver or the innovative combination of yellow gold, 18k rose gold and sterling silver. Let’s face it now: the design is reminiscent, in fact, the rolling movement of the Rainbow Wedge, but the reference stops there. Colors and impact of the jewels are completely different compared to the shoe that inspired them. Much more sober, the jewelry collection does not seem to be popped up since 1938, when the rainbow shoe was designed. He hopes, however, to become famous as the object to which it inspires.

Giovanni Raspini, historical brand of Tuscany, is not only a manufacturer of silver objects, from jewelry to home accessories such as the picture frames. It is also an expert on the tradition that has its roots in the history of his region. For this rings, Spring Summer collection which we anticipated here (https://gioiellis.com/quattro-argenti-per-raspini) summarizes not only the philosophy of a silversmith who is no longer just a silversmith. The rings are a conjunction with the Renaissance past, revised under a Pop light. It’s possible? Yes, if you look carefully these silver rings with bright multicolored stones, mounted signet on sight. If you imagine the rings wore by Lorenzo the Magnificent, or by the sweet Beatrice Dante’s… The griffe itself becomes a decorative pattern, since it can take forms even a little ‘extravagant (texture crocodile, shagreen texture, rope, flower, skulls). If you then add the stones green, citrine, turquoise, teal and purple, we’re pretty far from silver and closer to jewel as hybrid between past and present. Rudy Serra

Collezione Cherie. Anello in Argento 925‰ rosé con Cubic Zirconia bianchi e verde smeraldo e Perla Tahiti 8x9½ mm

If you make a trip to the discovery of the jewels made in Italy you can meet also Mayumi. The name, however, is not Italian, is Japanese: it comes from the words Ma, which means bow, and Yumi, which means strength. Nothing to do with martial arts: Mayumi, based in Verona, is specializes in jewelry made with delicate pearls. But it is true that the company was born in Japan in 1991, in a major Pearls Farm, at the initiative of the founder Alberto Fasoli. Who, after learning the secrets of pearls, she decided to transform his company from simple importer to a producer of jewelry. In short, Japanese raw material and fancy Italian. The result is a series of collections of jewelry that all revolve around the same idea, that is, involving the use of “tears of the gods”, cultivated in fresh water or sea water. Besides pearls, are used silver, cubic zirconia and synthetic sapphires. In short, a compromise that allows to moderate the price without losing aesthetic effect. Here are some examples.
