The bright silver of Spadarella

//




When a jewel is copied, it is damage to the company that sells the originals, but it is also a sign of success. How it happened to the brand of Roberto Spadarella from Romagna, who managed to create a small empire of silver jewelry, with 23 direct sales points in Italy, as well as an efficient e-commerce service. A story born in 1983, with the opening of the first goldsmith’s shop in Riccione, a town on the Adriatic Sea.

In the 1990s, after learning the goldsmith’s secrets, Spadarella decided to conquer space in silver and stone jewelery, which has become the hallmark of the Maison. The company calls Le Roi Soleil – Spadarella Gioielli and in 2006 the founder received the award for best designer at the Ecat de Mode in Paris. A recognition that serves to make Spadarella also reach other European markets, such as Spain, Portugal, France, Greece, England, but also in America and the Middle East. The catalog of silver jewels is very vast and embraces different styles: from the Gothic-punk one, to the geometric, floral, animal … The prices are low: for a pair of earrings the maximum price is 100 euros, but in average is about half.

The Romagna brand has roots firmly planted in reality: in spring 2022 it proposed a special edition bracelet of the classic model, with the colors of Ukraine. For each bracelet sold, the company has decided to tame the aid campaigns that Unicef and Doctors Without Borders have put in place in Ukraine 10 euros.

Autore’s pearls

/




Autore’s best pearl jewels, the result of a story that began 30 years ago. At the table ♦

Oil, tomato and a plate of pearls. Or, better, a plate of pasta, the typical Italian food, for the great pearl producers. Legend has it that this is how the professional story of Rosario Autore began, also thanks to Italian cuisine, in love with Australia and the spherical oyster products. But, obviously, also skilled in the kitchen. Over 30 years ago, according to the story, Autore put the Italian culinary tradition, his hobby, to good use in a dinner that allowed him to weave the necessary relationships to start the production and trade of South Sea pearls. , among the most valuable. And he probably didn’t imagine that he would become one of the largest pearl producers in the world.

After starting the cultivation of pearls, the Autore brand has also evolved as a jewelry manufacturer, with a proposal for collections that are not confined to the classic necklaces with a string of pearls, or to simple clip earrings, but also range to high jewelry.

Born in southern Italy, Rosario Autore learned the secrets of pearl trading and cultivation in Tokyo before moving to Australia at the age of 26. In Broome, Australia’s pearl cultivation capital, where he stopped and, thanks to that famous pasta dinner, he convinced some local producers to sell him pearls.

This is how the company’s history began in 2005. Now Autore owns and manages seven factories off the coasts of Australia and Indonesia. Each year it collects 300,000 pearls. He has also developed his own system of cataloging and evaluating pearls. The vast majority are sold, while about 4,000 South Sea pearls are used directly by the company, in the workshops where the jewels are made.

The modern antiquity of Loren Nicole’s jewels

//




If this earrings by Loren Nicole, which you see on this page, remind you of something, you are not wrong. You have probably seen similar ones in an archaeological museum. Loren N. Teetelli, in fact, founded her Loren Nicole brand in 2016, but graduated in History of Art and Anthropology from the University of Vermont in 2012. She then continued her field research in Peru and Mexico, studying the pre-Columbian cultures. In her years after college, Loren worked as a conservator in the Anthropology department of the American Museum of Natural History (New York) and later at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York) in Art of Africa, Oceania and the Department of the Americas. That’s where her style also comes from.

Orecchini ispirati alla 21esima dinastia dell’Antico Egitto, in oro 22 carati e tormaline

These earrings, for example, are made of 22 carat yellow gold with the granulation technique. It is an ancient method that is believed to have originated from the Sumerian peoples over 5000 years ago, in the area where Iraq is now located. The granulation consists in applying microscopic spheres of gold on another gold surface.

When working in New York, the designer began to attend ancient metalworking courses to better understand the materials she was preserving. Although she has never followed a formal training for jewelers, she has had the good fortune to integrate her self-learning through seminars with many masters of highly specialized techniques, now little practiced. Her jewels highlight ancient techniques and aesthetics and drawing inspiration from the art and mythologies of antiquity. And there is nothing more modern than what has passed.

The planets of Satellite

//





From primitive art to successful jewelry, a recipe with ethnic ingredients for Satellite ♦

Sandrine Dulon is an ethnologist, Daniel Ouaki a photographer. But 30 years ago, in 1987, instead of a photo shoot on an Amazon tribe, the couple founded Satellite, a French jewelery brand. From Paris, the French company has expanded in Italy and China, from Milan and Rome to Shanghai and Xiamen.

Naturally for sale there are the same jewels designed in the Parisian atelier. Of the original interests of the founders, the jewels take on a generically ethnic style: natural stones, pearls, silk, but also feathers are used. The elements are not combined according to a particular tribal style, yet they eclectically recall the jewels of some ancient population. “The base is solidly anchored in cultural wealth, but the head is in the world of dreams,” confirms Sandrine. In short, a sort of revisited anthropology. It is no coincidence that the founder’s father was a collector of primitive art, while his mother designed jewelry. Everything in the family, in short.

New Possessions for Piaget

///




New Possessions to own: Piaget renews and expands one of the longest-lived collections: it was born, in fact, in 1990 and hasn’t stopped rotating since then. In the true sense of the term: the collection was born starting from a ring composed with opposing elements that can rotate. An idea, that of rotating a part of the ring, which turns into a sort of relaxing gesture. The Possession collection, over the years, has been enriched with new pieces, variants, which have also embraced bracelets, earrings and necklaces.

32 years after the debut, the novelties are not yet finished: Piaget has developed a new series of jewels destined, in particular but not only, to a young audience. Long or short necklaces because they are adjustable, precious stones with clear colors and matched with diamonds, such as sapphires, emeralds and rubies (selected according to Piaget’s rigorous standards) and new earrings in different versions, with one or three circles. All the earrings will be on sale individually, to facilitate the choice of different combinations.

The big race of Ana de Costa




The unique pieces by Ana de Costa, able to realize small sundials platinum precious stones, a timeturner, and many amazing jewelry ♦

Young designers grow: in London the brilliant Ana de Costa in few years has designed and built a series of jewelery that stand out for their excellent workmanship and inspiration. Like many others, Ana de Costa has attended St. Martins in London, a real launching pad. He then worked for the London-based jeweler Shaun Leane and then for Alexander McQueen and Erickson Beamon. In 2006, she herself says, she has been invited to present his graduation collection at Childwickbury Art Fair, an event run by Christiane Kubrick, the wife of the late director Stanley Kubrick. But the real in style debut took place in 2007, with the launch of the Tarot, its first jewelery collection.

In 2008 Ana teamed up with Swarovski and also the coveted Young Designer of the Year at the UK Jewellery Awards. One of the shots of Ana de Costa, in addition to the elaborate gold design, is the choice of stones, such as tanzanite. In 2011 Ana thus collaborated with the mining company Gemfields to create an extraordinary unique piece: a pair of emerald earrings 20ct, hand crafted in 18ct yellow gold with natural diamonds cognac. These important earrings, along with a bracelet and ring of the Spiritual Henna collection were worn to the Academy Awards in 2013 by the wife of composer Paul Epworth. After this debut on the red carpet, Ana de Costa is no longer a surprise to anyone. Just take a look at the pictures that we publish to understand why.

The conversations with the moon of Karma El Khalil

//




She is a designer with a degree in psychology, of Lebanese origins, but with life and work in New York: Karma El Khalil is one of the most imaginative representatives of the new jewelry. Her new collection is called Conversations with the moon and for the designer she represents the positive turning point after the long pandemic season. It is also a collection with an immediately recognizable temperament, which uses large semi-precious stones, in particular morganite, opal, topaz and apatite. Gems are best used, with surprising effects, often with clusters on chandelier earrings.

The gems are set in 18K gold, along with small diamonds set in the metal. In some cases the stones have been left in their original, rough state, but most of the time they follow traditional cuts. The idea is that the stones can recall the reflections of the moon on the large skyscrapers of the city but, of course, those who wear a jewel of this type are likely to soon forget the combination. Prices range from $ 1,200 to $ 21,000.

Flowery Rosato with Gaia

///




Gaia, in addition to being a female name, in Greek mythology was the personification of the Earth, one of the primordial deities. Gaia was considered the mother of Uranus (the sky) and of Pontus (the sea). This is why the name Gaia today is associated with that of the Earth and, at the same time, of nature. But now also, among other things, also to a collection by Rosato, which not surprisingly is developed with an explicit reference to spring, flowers, plants. Not only that: Gaia is also a reference to that season of the Sixties when flowers were a reason for peaceful social rebellion, against wars (a value, that of peace, which is worth remembering even today).

The flower rings of the collection are made with cubic zirconia on sterling silver, in a natural version or with subsequent galvanic pink gold, which represents the typical Rosé style. The jewelry also uses beads and enamel. In addition to the rings, the Gaia line includes bracelets, necklaces and earrings.

The fine Greek titanium of Anastasia Kessaris

//




She has a degree in architecture, she worked as an architect in London, eventually becoming a senior interior designer at Harrods. So what could Anastasia Kessaris‘s next step be? Designing jewelry. And it is not strange, because the architect Anastasia is also the daughter of the most famous jeweler in Athens, Costas Kessaris. Anastasia, who married Belgian businessman Thomas Persy three years ago (with a party for 1,358 guests, including Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis), has nevertheless chosen her path. Her jewels, in fact, are in pure minimal-pop style, with great use of titanium.

Above all, earrings and necklaces follow soft designs, with clean shapes, without being anonymous. The titanium surfaces host small diamonds or precious stones such as tourmalines or tsavorites. But, of course, one of the advantages that titanium offers is the possibility of coloring the metal directly, without having to cover it with enamel. Anastasia Kessaris’s jewels thus present themselves with bold shades, such as violet or intense blue, which with the wavy surfaces of the jewels take on unpredictable shades. Now they are also available on Moda Operandi.

Jewels with Crescendo by FerrariFirenze

//




A crescendo, in musical language, indicates a gradual increase in the intensity of the sound of a piece, usually played by an orchestra. But, more generally, a crescendo is the progressive increase in the intensity of something: a passion, an involvement, a feeling. And now of a jewelry collection too. In fact, Crescendo is the name of the new collection by FerrariFirenze, a Florentine company also famous for its jewels with mobile elements. And, in fact, the geometries of the jewels in the collection have some affinity with the performance of a song or a symphony, with volumes that become more consistent or thinner, just as if they were the visual expression of a sound.

Anello e bracciale indossati
Anello e bracciale indossati

The jewels are made of gold and diamonds aligned on the individual elements that make up the necklace, bracelet and earrings. A harmony that, perhaps, is also the result of the atmosphere that the FerrariFirenze artisans breathe, who are lucky enough to work in a 16th century villa surrounded by a beautiful garden, Villa Corsi Salviati north of Florence. And who create the jewels of the Maison, entirely handmade, including the closures of the earrings and necklaces.

Giovanni Raspini, the simple circles of Silk

//




Even in jewelry, simplicity is everything. A circle, a smooth surface, a perfect geometric shape: after all, you don’t need much more to get a jewel that is able to face any situation and that resists fashions and the passing of the years. It is no coincidence that the circle has been the most used shape in jewelry for millennia. And it is also the shape adopted by Giovanni Raspini for the Silk collection.

The Silk collection is characterized, in fact, by its clean and essential lines. The Maison’s jewels are made as always in silver, which in this case is polished and makes the surface even smoother. The principle of less is more is applied here all the way. The jewels, which are basically of two types, are offered in different sizes: two necklaces, three bracelets and three hoop earrings. They are all the same, what varies is the size, which can better adapt to the shape and volume of the wearer’s body.

Mothers in Paradise with Marco Bicego

//




Mothers go to heaven with Marco Bicego. But make no mistake: without losing contact with the Earth. The Venetian brand, on the occasion of Mother’s Day, presents an abstention from the Paradise collection, one of the first creations by Marco Bicego. The jewels in this collection are made of 18-karat yellow gold, interspersed with colored stones such as amethysts, topazes, tourmalines and quartzes. The new extension of the jewelry line adds freshwater pearls, but without altering the style and overall effect. The jewels always use small elements in yellow gold engraved by hand with a burin.

The gentle cactus of Bona Calvi

/




At the beginning of the 1969 film Cactus Flower, young Toni Simmons (Goldie Hawn) attempts to commit suicide by inhaling gas from the stove. But she is saved by her neighbor and the comedy evolves into a funny crescendo of misunderstandings and love affairs. Moral: even the thorniest events can evolve and flourish, so there is hope at the bottom of every mishap. A film that Bona Calvi must have liked, enough to inspire the Cactus capsule collection. Don’t worry: jewels don’t sting.

The miniature cacti are made of bronze, with a small emerald, ruby ​​or rose cut diamond in the center. Cactus jewelry includes rings, a bracelet and earrings. The jewels are handcrafted using the traditional lost-wax modeling technique in her laboratory in the center of Milan. After high school, Bona Calvi enrolled at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts and later at the Ambrosiana Goldsmith School in Milan. She started making jewelry in 2015.

Pearls in Eclipse with Yoko London

There is not only high jewelery, such as the necklace worn in the Bridgerton tv series, which is set in England during the Regency period, among the most interesting novelties of Yoko London. At the recent Haute Jewels Geneva the Maison also showed the new Eclipse collection, consisting of contemporary-style hoop earrings and easy-to-wear stackable rings.

Pearls, which are the characteristic element of Yoko London, in this case are used in small sizes of 3-3.5 millimeters, so that they are able to enrich rings in white or yellow gold, alternating with brilliant-cut diamonds. Furthermore, freshwater pearls are offered in the classic white pearly white color, or in a pink version. The rings, like the earrings, are of two volumes, with one or two rounds of pearls.

Cell effect for Luisa Rosas

//




The Be collection of the Portuguese designer Luisa Rosas is inspired by cellular constitutions. With an amazing effect ♦ ︎

In the north of Portugal there is a special gold, which shows the delicate processing of a tradition born under the influence of the winds of the Atlantic Ocean. The result is the jewels of Luisa Rosas, of which we have already spoken. In Vicenzaoro January, the Portuguese designer presented new ideas, which translate into the Be collection. The surprising aspect of the Be collection is that it is inspired by something new. No moons, hearts, flowers: jewels are made with the thought turned to the cellular structure that is the basis of life. The cells of plants and animals (obviously also those of human beings) are organized to create new living subjects. And from this concept the collection has developed.

The jewels are composed of single, small elements, just like the cells that bind to each other to form the natural world.

Luisa Rosas, anello della collezione Be

The result is a kind of puzzle that turns into bracelets, rings or necklaces. 18-karat yellow or white gold alternates with paved surfaces with small diamonds, with an irregular rhythm. Just like it happens in nature. Other collections, on the other hand, are Skin and Tribe, both created starting from many small elements of gold aggregated to form volumes, clusters or fringes.

LJ, jewels in Rome with a Latin soul

/




The collections of LJ Roma 1962 ♦ ︎

Labor Jewels, renamed LJ Roma 1962, was born in 2001 from an offshoot of Artifex, a Roman company that deals with production for third parties of jewels created by the designer Armando Pasini, who also gave birth to the Bonato Milano brand. As it is easy to guess from the choice of a Latin word, Labor, which means work, the jewelry brand tends to associate its business with the atmosphere and culture of the history of Rome. So much so that on the website the inscription in Latin stands out: Magnos animos magnis honoribus fieri. That is: great ambitions make great spirits, a phrase attributed to Tito Livio.

Even if, in fact, it is not a choice that pushes the jewelry brand to look back to the past. The jewels, that is, do not refer to the glory of the Roman Empire (even if one of the collections is called, in fact, Empire) but rather to contemporary glamor. The small Maison also has a boutique in the center of Rome, in via Condotti.

The new Blenda road

//




Claiming that covid also had positive aspects is certainly wrong. But, in a certain sense, it has forced many people to have more free time, perhaps thanks to smart working. Or the birth of two twins. And this is what happened to a young girl from the Marche, who has worked for years in the fashion industry, and who has decided to bring out her passion for jewelry. The result is Blenda, a jewelry brand founded in spring 2021 in Rome by Cristina Tricarico.

Collana con pietre cabochon
Collana con pietre cabochon

I have always had a great passion for jewels, but having a very multifaceted soul I have always struggled to find my style and my way of perceiving elegance combined with everyday life and so, after starting to make them for myself, I felt the need to create my first selection of jewels, designed to reflect my personality and that of those who, like me, were looking for something truly unique, in a real jewelery tailor shop.
Cristina Tricarico

Collana in oro giallo con topazio
Collana in oro giallo con topazio

Another detail must be added: the name Blenda, perhaps few people know, is commonly the one referring to sphalerite, the mineral from which zinc is extracted. The name blenda derives from the German blenden, to deceive, due to its appearance which is confused with galena. The name of sphalerite derives from the Greek sphaleros, misleading.
That said, nothing of the new Blenda collections is misleading. The founder, who follows one-girl-show all the phases from design to realization, prefers the creation of unique pieces. Small diamonds and precious stones such as emeralds, rubies, sapphires and semiprecious stones such as tourmaline and aquamarine are set on rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings, the result of continuous research by the brand on the best Italian and international markets, and mounted on certified 18 carat gold. . In short, serious stuff.

//




A rainbow can be defined simply as a meteorological phenomenon caused by the reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in the water droplets in the atmosphere, which causes the appearance of a spectrum of light in the sky in the shape of a multicolored circular arc. But it would be an understatement. Because the rainbow has always also been a symbol, an event that has fueled mythology and fairy tales. In the mythology of ancient Northern Europe, the Bifröst rainbow becomes a bridge connecting the world of men with that of the gods. Or there is Cuchavira, god of the rainbow for the Muisca culture (now Colombia). At the end of a rainbow, Nordic myths still tell, there is the secret hiding place of an Irish elf with a pot of gold.

All this premise serves to introduce a simple Rainbow collection of the Tuscan brand Amen. The collection consists of rings and earrings made of rhodium silver, with the addition of white or colored cubic zirconia. The price does not reach 50 euros, a miracle of the rainbow.

The moon by Ton Joli by Pasquale Bruni

//




The Ton Joli collection, one of Pasquale Bruni‘s historic creations, expands with new jewels. And, at the same time, he adds a poetic touch: inspiration from the moon. The Earth satellite is the idea that powers the small new capsule as an extension of the line made with green Agate. With this premise, the Maison of Valenza has created earrings in rose gold (only 20 pieces) in contrarié, with green agate and lapis lazuli blue with rock crystal, as well as details of white and champagne diamonds.

The stones have irregular facets, with a larger round surface in the center. Another novelty is Ton Jolie Blue Moon Special Edition 2022, which consists of earrings, sautoir, ring and bracelets in rose gold with blue lapis lazuli and white agate with white diamonds: the same combinations as the version with white and green agates launched two years ago.

Nikos Koulis always says Oui

The renewed Oui collection signed by the famous Greek designer Nikos Koulis ♦ ︎

Saying yes is simple, but to say Oui one must be French, or be Nikos Koulis. It is called Oui, in fact, one of the most famous collections of the award-winning Greek designer. Proposed with numerous variations over the years, now the Oui collection is once again revitalized with a care of art déco, capable of making its geometries even more electrifying.

The jewels of the Oui collection are a special mix of diamonds of different sizes, which make up hypnotic patterns, black enamel and, sometimes, the brilliant addition of emeralds or rubies.

Several Hollywood stars have celebrated Nikos Koulis’ jewels but, lately, earrings and necklace from the new Oui collection have been worn by Jane Fonda and Jennifer Lopez. Although we must add that these jewels do not need to have ambassadors to bring out their beauty and, above all, the unique style of their creator. It is a refined but not rarefied design, which is very popular in the West. But not only.
