A jewelry slam for Serena Williams




It sounds strange, but in the jewelry collections launched a few years ago by Serena Williams there are no real tennis bracelets. Or, better, there is a jewel defined as a tennis bracelet, but which does not have the shape of the bracelet launched half a century ago by another tennis player, Chris Evert (find the history of tennis bracelets here). Serena Williams is also a great tennis player, who she has now decided to devote herself to something else. Also to jewels, in fact, with her brand Serena Williams Jewelry. The website through which the American tennis player sells jewelry under her name has recently undergone a redesign and has also launched a collection of high jewelry with diamonds and precious metals “ethically sourced and conflict-free”.

The collections have names inspired by the world of tennis: Queen of Your Court, which includes bracelets and necklaces defined as tennis, even if they do not follow the classic model. Unstoppable is the name of another collection, which alludes to Serena’s many tennis successes. The defined tennis shape could actually be defined as riviera, that is, with stones of different sizes to climb. The tennis star has also launched a line of costume jewelry called S by Serena.

Leonardo on the hand with De Re




Rings and bracelets inspired by the plots painted by Leonardo da Vinci in Milan. He proposes them De Re ♦ ︎

There are those who are inspired by flowers, those who design usual lucky charms, those who propose jewelery in the shape of a heart or a star. Then, there is a craft jewelery in Udine (Italy) that follows a different idea: bijoux inspired by art and science. The bijoux by Monica De Re, in fact, are reworkings of masterpieces of the past, handmade with the American processing technique that replicates the work of jewelery, using ductile materials that allow the stones to be easy set.

For example, for the 500 years since the death of Leonardo da Vinci, the designer was inspired by the genius of the Renaissance. In particular, the plant decorations found in the Sala delle Asse of the Sforza Castle in Milan, painted by Leonardo during his stay in the Lombard city between 1497 and 1499. The collection consists of bracelets and rings that recreate the effect of bonds and knots painted in this Leonardo masterpiece.

The bijoux are made of metal alloy, both in the version with antiqued gold finish and in the one in antiqued palladium, with embedding of Swarovski stones. The ring is available in two versions, high and low. Also this is worked in metallic fusion technically rendered with flat bas-relief, where knots, leaves and blackberries are visible which, in the hand setting of the stones are rubies. The ring is also developed on three floors compressed into a minimal millimeter scale realized in the antique gold variant and siam stones or antique palladium and light sapphire stones. The low ring has a smaller size and is found in the antique gold and antique palladium versions.

In addition to Leonardo da Vinci, the designer drew inspiration from the traditions of Venice, with a series of jewels in which the icon of the Moor appears. As in the bracelet with four circles in brass bathed in 24 carat gold, with a dark brown turban with crystals. Worn on the ear by men of the sea, during the maritime republic of Venice, the icon was a good luck charm. And still like it. Or to inspire Monica De Re can also be the enigmatic drawings in the Peruvian desert of Nazca, proposed in galvanic ruthenium, antiqued palladium and gold.

The new Tiffany Lock bracelets

New Tiffany bracelets. They are those of the Lock collection, a line launched in August. The new collection debuts with four rigid gold bangle, with models also with pavé diamonds. They are bracelets that, in intentions, are gender fluid, in the wake of the undifferentiated proposal for the wearer.

Tiffany Lock is an elegant interpretation of functional archival design, defined by clean, modern lines and a revolutionary locking mechanism. Tiffany Lock represents an exciting new pillar to our diamond and gold jewelry offering. We are thrilled to unveil our latest icon.

The bracelets are made of 18-karat yellow and pink gold and, as the images of Mario Sorrenti and Raymond Meier with model Imaan Hammam and skateboarder Tyshawn Jones also confirm, they are designed for everyone. The idea is that of a padlock bracelet, with an allusion to the handcuffs genre. The closure features an innovative swivel mechanism that incorporates the functionality of a padlock.

Before the 1950s, in fact, Tiffany also offered real padlocks: key rings, money clips, brooches and necklaces featured design elements that evoked padlocks. Over the past 20 years, the lock pattern has continued to evolve in collections such as Return to Tiffany and Tiffany HardWear. The four Tiffany Lock bracelets are priced in the US between $ 6,800 and $ 32,000, but more models will be launched starting next January.

In Ecstasy with Vitaly

//




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.

Giulia Colussi, magical jewels




The magical world of Giulia Colussi, designer from Milan (Italy), between myths and the East ♦ ︎

The world is divided between those who see things that others do not see and those who see things they others believe to see. Complicated? Not much. If you are a superstitious person, you could love a four-leaf shape clover jewel with the idea that, perhaps, the amulet can bring you luck. If you are not a superstitious person, however, you can wear the four-leaf clover jewel simply because you like or remind you of nature.

Orecchini con tanzaniti e diamanti
Orecchini con tanzaniti e diamanti
The same reasoning applies to Giulia Colussi, designer from Milan who belongs to the first category. That is, those who are inspired by concepts in which one must have faith such as chakra, crystal therapy and clairvoyants to describe a stone, turquoise, which for others simply has a splendid blue color. Gold, pearls and, in some cases, even small Chinese or Japanese elements are used for the designer’s jewels, all proposed with a mystical or mythological “second reading”. To you the choice.

De’ Nobili, the Stars of Naples

//




The jewels inspired by the stars and to Positano by de ‘Nobili, Neapolitan jewelers ♦

Stardust in Naples. But it is not necessary to go to the top of Vesuvius to see the firmament shine: the stars are those of the collection signed by de Nobili, one of the most consolidated Maison in the city. The story begins in 1943, in the middle of the war, when Claudio and Aurelio de’Nobili founded a jewelry store in via Filangieri. The first customers were the soldiers of the American troops as soon as they entered the city. The baton was then passed on to the children of Claudio, Maurizio, Mirella, Simona and Fabrizio. And in 1983 Maurizio founded the goldsmith’s laboratory which is still active, focusing on the renewal of the proposals.

Orecchini Positano in oro rosa 9 carati, argento

The idea was successful and de ’Nobili opened other boutiques. On the other hand, the Neapolitan goldsmith tradition is alive and well, as evidenced, for example, by the Polvere di Stelle collection. The jewels are in silver and gold. But what matters most is the elaborate processing of the metal, which recalls the intricate baroque decorations found in some Neapolitan church. To clarify: the jewels have nothing liturgical, except perhaps the holy patience that it takes to make the pieces of this collection. In the collection inspired by Positano, a pleasant town on the Tyrrhenian Sea, the jewelry offers instead the combination with hydrothermal, that is synthetic, or semi-precious stones.

Journey into matter with Emanuela Duca

//




Emanuela Duca and her jewels with roots in Rome and work in New York, between the call of the earth and fantasy.

From Rome to New York: a journey that millions of tourists and a few designers travel. Among these, there is Emanuela Duca, who from the capital of Italy has moved permanently to the capital of the American East Coast, New York, indeed, Manhattan and, now in the Hudson Valley. Even if she now lives and works in the Big Apple, she keeps her roots in the artistic culture of the Peninsula and often returns to Rome, where she followed her training path. She graduated from the Art School of Rome, and then from the European Institute of Design. Not only that: in addition to jewelry, Emanuela was involved in dance, painting and sculpture. Almost a Renaissance artist, when the divisions between the different artistic skills were subtle.

The jewels that smell





The essential oils of aromatherapy combined with bracelets, necklaces and rings from the Californian company Anavia ♦ ︎

Aromatherapy is a practice of the category of alternative medicine that has many followers. Although the real effectiveness of smelling aromas is discussed and questionable (and is not considered medical by doctors), the idea fascinates a good number of people. In fact, a market of essential oils was born for aspiring sniffers. And, in any case, a good smell can be pleasant regardless of the supposed effect on the body.

Those who follow the practice of aromatherapy usually use diffusers and spry. The Californian company Anavia has therefore decided to transform these instruments to spread aromas in bijoux. Nothing precious: they are bracelets, rings, necklaces, bracelets with enameled steel pendants. But they are designed to contain the drops of essential oils necessary for aromatherapy. Drops that are sold together with bijoux, available in 300 different combinations.

Rosato with cube colors

///




Founded in 2004 by Simona Rosato, the eponymous brand has always focused on pendants to add to bracelets and necklaces. With the purchase by the Bros Manifatture group in 2011, the range of jewels offered by Rosato has expanded to include rings, bracelets and earrings. But without forgetting new collections of charms. Now, however, Rosato offers a completely different line, which uses silver in its natural color, or with a PVD rose gold plating. But not only that: the jewels of the Cubica collection stand out for their very geometric design, completely abstract compared to the pendants.

The name Cubica has a double reference. In fact, it alludes to the precise geometries of the jewels, composed of small elements with a squared volume, but also to the use of cubic zirconia, synthetic stones with the appearance of a crystal, which increase the brilliance of the jewel. Soft band bracelets, band rings and small or long wire earrings, together with silver necklaces make up the collection, which is well suited to even unconventional clothing.

The bijoux by Katerina Psoma

//




Innovative bijoux by the Greek designer Katerina Psoma, between fashion, design and classicism ♦

When she was 15 Katerina Psoma loved spending time in her mother’s fashion boutique in Athens. In particular, she liked the clothes of Moschino, one of the most innovative Italian designers. In short, Katerina Psoma fell in love before fashion, then jewelry, but always as a complement to the dresses. You know, bijoux, but classy, ​​like the clothes she admired when she was a girl in the boutique.

Orecchini in argento placcato oro con gemme sintetiche
Orecchini in argento placcato oro con gemme sintetiche

The study of the history of art in Rome and London has also influenced the style adopted by her fashion bijoux. From art to design the step was short. In the field of design, for example, Katerina has also chosen the abstract style of Memphis, the current created by the Italian architect Ettore Sottsass. But, as often happens, the roots are also re-evaluated over the years: for this reason, in the jewels created with acrylic and brass materials there are often references to the classical Greek shapes.
Katerina Psoma does not use precious materials, but the selection is in any case accurate: vintage finds, Murano glass, antique beads, carved jade and translucent semi-precious stones, together with the acrylic material are some of the bases she has chosen for her pieces. Alessia Mongrando

The little works of Gabriella Rivalta




Handcrafted bijoux, hand-painted pendants, fairy tale book fantasies: Gabriella Rivalta’s new jewels

In Cascina Centofinestre, an old renovated rural building in the heart of Piedmont, in Monferrato, Gabriella Rivalta revives those atmospheres found in those places where traditions are jealously cultivated.

Except that in this case his creations are not only the result of a taste for the jewel of a century ago, but a graft between a popular style, made of angels and flowers, with an artisan creativity, which composes each piece with patience, skills and an inexhaustible series of variations on the theme. From this working method it also follows that each piece is something that is unique. There may be similar jewels, but not the same. Also because the miniatures, which are the heart of the jewels, are made up of experts who paint the individual pieces that are joined to chains and supports in gold. Finally, to protect the small works, it is spread over a transparent enamel. The result is necklaces, pendants, rings: small works of art to wear.

Brosway for the summer

/




Be in tune with fashion, but also with the season. Two objectives that Brosway has achieved with its jewels inspired by summer, the sea, the heat and, at the same time, with the use of a style clearly in line with the trend. That is, in this specific case, with the use of colored, lively, immediately visible enamel, which is added to natural steel or with a gold-colored finish. The necklaces, bracelets, rings or earrings proposed for the summer by the Bros Manifatture brand also, in some cases, use pendants that recall the marine climate, such as the shapes of shells, starfish or fish.

Beside the enamel, in fuchsia or turquoise shades, Brosway uses crystals in nuances, which the brand calls roses or bohemian water, that is bright pink and blue. The necklaces and bracelets are double stranded, while the earrings are sold individually. The price, as always, is super affordable, as expected for the classic beach bijoux.

Tiffany City HardWear also in titanium

///




News for the summer signed by Tiffany & Co. The American company has expanded the catalog of one of its best-known collections, Tiffany City HardWear. The collection was launched in 2017, with the intention of representing the energy and spirit of New York. But also to propose a line of jewels suitable for younger people, in particular for the Millenials, that is, those born between 1981 and the mid-1990s. It is no coincidence that the face accompanying the launch of the new jewels is that of Rosé, the Korean singer of Blackpink, pseudonym of Roseanne Park, 24 years old. But, of course, it is not forbidden to wear Tiffany City HardWear jewelry even if you do not fall within this age group.

In any case, now the collection is enriched with new titanium models, with a new bracelet and necklace in black titanium. It is a very modern design. Each jewel is characterized by a single pink gold link with pavé diamonds. The shape of the two jewels is inspired not only by the design of the previous pieces, but also by a 1971 bracelet unearthed in the archives of the Maison.

Joie DiGiovanni’s joys

//




Rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, Raynaud’s syndrome and colitis. It doesn’t seem like a particularly pleasant picture. But the consequences of an old car accident were, paradoxically, the spring that pushed Joie DiGiovanni, born in Philadelphia and with a name that indicates family origins in Italy, to focus on jewelry. In 2013 Joie launched her brand while working in sales for a clothing chain. Objective: to offer quality jewels, but suitable for non-formal, fun, colorful clothing. After three years of running in, the brand took off also thanks to the personal aesthetic chosen for the jewels.

At the center of Joie DiGiovanni’s work are colored necklaces and bracelets made with ruby, emerald and sapphire spheres, high quality hand-picked faceted stones, mounted in 14-karat gold. The gems are joined by an unbreakable thread: a long necklace can be wrapped in several turns without fear of breaking. The idea of ​​using such a wide palette also offers the possibility of infinite variations. Baroque pearls are often added to the stones. Another feature of the designer is the proposal of alternative jewels, for example those with the design of the cannabis leaf, in gold and diamonds.

Another medical aspect, however, concerns Dara, Joie’s younger sister who joined the company as a production assistant. Dara was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome and today the sisters are involved in helping communities that provide ongoing services to children with this disorder.

Amen, there is the sun

//




If there is one thing that never fails in June, July and August, at least in the Northern hemisphere of the Earth, it is the sun. Heat, brightness and longer days are the effects of the more active presence of the star around which our planetary system rotates. An effect that is reversed during the following six months, in which the sun instead heats the southern hemisphere of the globe. In short, you cannot forget the sun but, if you want, you can wear it. The line of bijoux by Amen, the Tuscan brand of jewels at affordable prices (in this case from 49.90 to 79.90 euros) offers the Sole (Sun) collection, to be worn in summer, but not only.

Orecchini della collezione Sole

The line includes necklaces, bracelets and earrings and is made of 925 silver with a rhodium finish and colored or white zircons. The shape of the jewels is, of course, inspired by the celestial star, with rays that accentuate the round shape of the pendants, reminiscent of the stylization of the sun adopted by the ancient Mayan empire. In this case, however, with greater joy.

The West in Lisa Eisner’s eyes

Cheyenne. New York. Paris. Los Angeles. Former Vogue editor. Fashion expert. Rodeo photographer. Book publisher with Greybull Press. And finally, jewelry designers.

Renew success without abandoning success. It seems the philosophy of Fope, Maison of Vicenza, which aims to establish a close relationship with its customers. And this is possible with the proposal of collections that last over time: the jewels are so always current, from the classics.

Vendôme is characterized by the oval gold knit, always soft thanks to the patented Flex’it technology, which allows a surprising elasticity to the texture in pink or white gold. A system that is used not only to make flexible bracelets and colliers, but also rings: a particularly appreciated aspect because it makes the jewels more pleasant to wear. With the new pieces of the collection a new game of colors and brightness has been introduced thanks to a thin ribbon in gold that embraces the surface of the rounded washer. Another novelty are the rings that, in addition to being Flex’it or band, offer a more abstract appeal to the dominant motif for an even more contemporary effect.
