What jewels to wear for holidays? Red is the color of winter holidays and is also the color of coral, which can give an extra touch of liveliness ♦

Winter holidays are colored red, like coral. For this reason, jewels with this material can be an excellent choice to wear for the winter holidays, together with gold and the green color. In fact, shades of red generally go well with an elegant dress and are in line with the Christmas atmosphere. Another advantage is that red coral jewelry is quite easy to find. But be careful: choose those that can prove to be sustainable from an environmental point of view. Many jewelers, who have understood that they cannot risk compromising coral colonies already put to the test by rising temperatures, can show certificates proving the sustainable origin of the coral used for the jewellery.

Furthermore, if you have jewels like the ones we publish on this page, be careful not to ruin them. Coral is a natural material, beautiful but also delicate. Coral jewelery must be treated with great care. Coral, like pearls, is a product of animal origin (it is composed of micro organisms) and is not a gemstone or mineral. The tiny corals live in the sea and over the years form calcareous skeletons. This is why you need to be careful. Here you will find the right suggestions to best preserve coral.

How to clean coral. It should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and rinsed with warm soapy water, then dried carefully. But it should not be placed in an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner, nor subjected to a bath in water. If the jewel is dusty, you can also remove the dust using a can of compressed air, of the kind used to clean the inside of computers.

Vicenzaoro has been suspended. Long live Vicenzaoro. Which, however, in September is called Voice. If the health emergency led Ieg (the company that organizes Vicenzaoro) to transform the format of the event by also changing the name, the companies in the sector have a strong need to show their production to buyers, that the appointment is called Vicenzaoro o Voice doesn’t matter. This is what can be deduced from the announcement that, in July, the companies that have chosen to exhibit their jewels at Voice-Vicenzaoro International Community Event (12 to 14 September) exceed 300.

About 300 companies means a very limited drop of about 15% compared to last year’s attendance. And taking into account that the major fairs, not only of jewelery, have been postponed to next year, number of registration to Voice is a success, perhaps unexpected. In short, Vicenzaoro, ops, Voice has a strong attraction. The names that have already reserved their space also testify to this.

Coral jewelry for 2019

Pantone chosed the coral color. Here are the jewels with the Living Coral, color of the year 2019 ♦ ︎

Pantone, as every year, has established the color of the year. For 2019 it has the anonymous Pantone abbreviation 16-1546 but, to make the choice a little less anonymous, the company specialized in nuances calls the color as Living Coral.

In short, it is expected that jewels with pink-orange coral will be sought during the year.

Although, to be honest, examples of jewels that use coral and this warm color are certainly not lacking, like that of Wendy Yue, in which the coral is carved in the shape of a rose, along with 18-karat gold, multicolour sapphires, diamonds, emeralds and rubies (if you are interested, it costs $ 95,000). But, of course, the pink-orange coral has long been used by jewelers, especially those who work in and around Naples, or in Sicily. Jewelers such as Castaldi, Chantecler, De Simone, Oro di Sciacca, Rovian, to name a few, are among the heirs of this tradition. But the coral is also used by Maison who all focus on innovative design, such as Salini and Vhenier.
In short, 2019 will see a coral revival. But be careful to clean and polish the coral: the things you need know are here. Freddy Graglia

The coral specialists De Simone propose a new collection that is the sum of their goldsmith skills: Krim.
They are defined coral specialists, but the definition is narrow. Certainly the brand De Simone also means coral. But the Neapolitan Maison boasts a production of jewelry that embraces the entire goldsmith skills, able to mix the classic ingredients of the jewelry menu: gold and precious stones. In VicenzaOro De Simone presented a new line of jewelry, Krim. Necklaces, earrings and rings using, of course, the coral, but with a game of nuances and contrasts with the precious stones: emeralds, colored sapphires, agates and diamonds, are used for compositions able to keep balance between bright and pastel colors. It’s no surprise. De Simone is a company with a tradition of over a century and a half, was born in Torre del Greco (Naples) in 1855. And in the time has established itself as one of the Maison more class in jewelry manufacturing with corals, pearls , cameos, semi-precious stones, gold and platinum. It has also long been an international standing: in 1910 opened an office in New York, in 1920 in London, although it has kept the base in Torre delGreco. Alessia Mongrando

If the coral is a Myto

It’s not news that the Italian jewelers, especially the Naples area, are masters in the art of coral. It is, however, a novelty the collection of Myto by De Simone, presented in VicenzaOro September. This is an expansion of the Icon collection, presented in January 2015. The initial inspiration, tell the company, is born from the great actresses icons of Made in Italy: Sophia Loren, Anna Magnani, Silvana Mangano. That is, style, elegance, retro nostalgia for the fifties. And we must add that in those years the coral was a absolute must. Hour is back into fashion, and in this collection is combined with pearls and turquoise, with diamonds and precious stones. In short, what makes a gem valuable evidence of craftsmanship, as well as an object of value. Here are a couple of images of the collection Myto, along with those of the collection Icon.
