It’s not just a tweak. For years, the Solo collection by Fope has been one of the best sellers of the Venetian Maison. However, the time has come to add something new. The 2023 version now has a round section gold link a new order through the introduction of a design that gives shape to the increasingly contemporary spirit of the brand. The Solo collection therefore presents new washers and new dimensions for the diamonds used, which become larger and have a different setting method.
Another novelty is the presentation of the Flex’it version, the patented system that makes the Fope jewels of the necklace flexible. The variant, already introduced with the Luna collection in 2022, now also applies to the Solo collection. In this case, however, the closure is emphasized, it becomes a protagonist element to be highlighted. The new necklaces can also be worn adherent to the skin as a choker, while in the standard lengths the Flex’it mesh allows the jewel to maintain a round shape that sinuously follows the neck. And the central diamond, set in the letter O of the logo, hides a secret: the button that activates the opening mechanism.
Flexible fope also for men
All the major jewelry brands have discovered the men’s market. If, until a few years ago, men’s jewels were in most cases inspired by a military, austere style, with the use of steel and leather, today even brands like Fope have noticed a new segment of customers ready to spend for luxury jewelry. In short, no longer just the classic gold chain or a thin bracelet hidden under the cuff of the shirt, but jewels to show off, in gold and precious stones. Jewels that have a style that derives from the collections for the ladies, but in sizes suitable for the male build.
Last year Fope opened its ball in the male universe with the first jewels, which multiplied within 12 months. Today the Fope jewels dedicated to men are developed according to the five most famous collections of the brand: Vendôme and Panorama (for the flat knit version of the Novecento knit), Prima e Solo (the round version) and Eka (the first collection to launch Flex’it in 2007). The brand also offers cufflinks, Flex’it rings and 18 gold necklaces. The black diamonds that characterize the line and the high technological content (the flexible mesh system is patented) promise an appeal even for those who love highly innovative solutions.
Luna by Fope with flexible necklaces
Having invented, and patented, an appreciated flexible knitting system also allows Fope some flexibility in design. The Flex’it system, launched 15 years ago, thanks to microscopic 18-karat gold springs inserted in the weave of the mesh makes Fope’s jewels soft and easy to wear. A feature that, over time, the Venetian company has applied to its various collections. Now it’s the turn of Luna (Italian word that means moon), a new line of jewels which, in harmony with the general gender fluidity, is referred to as unisex.
The jewels of the Luna collection are distinguished by a greater thickness than others, an aspect that does not prevent the usual flexibility. With a surprise: in addition to the bracelets available in yellow, white and pink gold, for the first time even necklaces become extensible, a jewel that usually does not need to stretch. There is a reason: in this way the choker that is worn close to the body can adapt to the size of the neck in a comfortable way, thanks to the exclusive technique adopted by Fope for its jewels.
Fope renews the successful Vendôme collection. Here are the news ♦ ︎
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. But, natively, this does not mean leaving the offer and collections unchanged. As in the case of Vendôme, a collection which is among Fope’s best sellers and which has been renewed with the addition of rubies, sapphires, baguette or princess cut diamonds.
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.
The Essentials jewels by Fope
Essential is what cannot be eliminated. But also something that you must necessarily possess. Or, maybe, you wear it. The Essentials collection by Fope starts from this principle, which aims to become one of the unmissable jewels for women who love evident but sober elegance, combined with the pleasure of comfort. The latter is the dowry of the Maison’s patented system, Flex’it, which already in the name describes its characteristic: a solid mesh, but which can be widened through invisible (patented) springs hidden in the heart of the jewel.
A feature that is particularly useful for bracelets and rings, which adapt more easily to the size of the body. The Essentials collection therefore proposes the typical intertwining of gold used by Fope and declined on three models of flexible rings, but also on bracelets, necklaces and earrings. The Essentials jewels are available in the three colors of gold, in some models with the addition of pavé diamonds.
Flexible jewelry, so flexible that even men can like it. In tune with the unisex trend, Fope also expands its range of jewelry to the male world. The Vicenza-based company has chosen to reinterpret some models, especially bracelets, from Fope’s most famous collections, such as Eka Tiny, Solo, Panorama, in a male version. The jewels, in fact, are renamed as Eka for men, Solo for men, Vendôme for men, etc. They are jewels for men, but the substance does not change: the patented Flex’It technology is always in the spotlight, which makes it possible to obtain solid and flexible sweaters at the same time.
The jewels are, as for the female version, in the three main colors of gold: pink, yellow and white, with the addition in some cases of washers paved with black diamonds, or in metal of the same color as the shirt. In addition to bracelets, ring and necklace are available. The idea of extending the proposal to the male world who wishes to wear luxury jewelry seems to have been a specific request from the market. But many men feel embarrassed to buy and wear women’s jewelry. With a line specifically dedicated to the male gender, however, the perplexities could be overcome. In the name of flexibility.

The Prima collection by Fope is expanding, like the patented Flex’it ♦ ︎
The Prima by Fope collection debuted with its Flex’it chain at Baselworld 2017. In 2018, new variations on the theme arrived and then gradually other additions, in yellow, pink or white gold.The jewelry line is enriched with a new model that redesigns the washer and adds long earrings (a real novelty for Fope). And since the reception of the public seems to have been positive, who knows that the collection is not destined to continue, expanding just like the patented Flex’it shirt: a system that allows the jewel to be elastic and flexible, thanks to hundreds of micro hooks hidden inside.
Diamonds and gold Flex’it mesh give a touch of classic elegance, but also ease of use. As for the other Fope jewels, in fact, also for the jewels of the Prima collection the plus is constituted by the pleasant wearability, thanks to the lightness and flexibility, which joins the aesthetic characteristics of the jewel.
Combining business with pleasure: perhaps this is the philosophy of Lady Fope, the line of the Venetian Maison Fope, which has decided to combine the bracelet element with that of a timepiece. Basically, Lady Fope uses bracelets with Flex’it technology, the gold mesh that hides hundreds of invisible hooks inside that make the jewel soft, flexible and adaptable. At the center of these bracelets, in 18-karat rose and white gold, is a Swiss Made watch with a quartz movement.
The beauty of this precious bracelet is that it does not need any buckle: it can be inserted simply by pushing your hand through the bracelet, which is elastic thanks to the (patented) Flex’it system. The bracelets are offered in two versions: with washers or in the classic Fope mesh, but the wearability is identical. The bracelets and watches are available in nine versions: in simple metal, or with the addition of small diamonds, arranged on the strap and cases of the timepiece.
The panorama of Fope’s jewels is even wider. It’s a play on words, because the new collection of the Venetian brand is just called Panorama. And it’s lovely. The new collection coincides with the new Flex’it mesh, the company’s patented system that allows you to obtain flexible gold jewelry thanks to dozens of micro springs in 18-karat gold hidden inside and, therefore, invisible. Now that system (which boasts numerous attempts at imitation) has been further improved and used for the Panorama collection.
Improved, but without losing its identity of comfortable luxury. The design used for Panorama consists of a variation of the iconic Novecento collection, but with a wider mesh and a very low thickness: it is thus almost flat, with a particular effect when worn. Characteristics of this new collection are also the little gold transverse loops, present in variable numbers and with different carats.
Like all Flex’it sweaters, Panorama required a considerable technical and technological commitment: in this case it took 24 months from the first sketches of the designers to the industrialization of the product. It is therefore not only elegant and comfortable jewels, but also innovative and original objects, unique in their kind.
Fope starts 2020 with an invitation: look at the Panorama. It is not a question of admiring the panorama of the hills not far from Vicenza, but the new collection that offers a further interpretation of Flex’it, the patented system that makes the link of bracelets and rings extensible thanks to tiny 18-karat gold springs inside the jewel and invisible.
The Panorama collection represents a celebration of the typical concept of discreet luxury that has always distinguished the brand, but adds an extra touch of preciousness. The design consists of a variation of the iconic Novecento shirt, but wider and with a very limited thickness. An aspect that makes the jewelry link almost flat and more pleasant to wear. Characteristics of this new collection are also the gold bars, present in variable numbers and with different carats.
Both bracelets and rings are only available in the original Flex’it version and the addition of the choker necklace and earrings (available in two sizes) makes the new sets an addition to the Fope jewelry range. Like all Flex’it jerseys, Panorama required a considerable technical and technological commitment: in this case it took 24 months from the first sketches of the designers to the industrialization of the product. They are therefore not only elegant and comfortable jewels, but also beautiful, innovative and original objects, unique in their kind.
Finally, the inspiration for the name of the collection comes from the shape of the bars that enrich the shirt and that recall elements of a Ferris wheel. But the name also refers to the succession of images that make up a broad view of a landscape. Finally, a small puzzle: Fope warns that both meanings will become even more understandable in the second half of 2020.
Flexibility, comfort and luxury: these three elements together form the basis of Fope’s patented Flex’it technology, a company that has turned 90 this year. It is a system that forms a precious gold mesh that hides thousands of micro springs hidden inside, invisible, but effective in making the feeling pleasant for the wearer.
Among the Fope collections that use Flex’it technology, Love Nest is the one that shows more generous volumes. His gold mesh has a dense texture, yet thanks to its flexibility it offers comfort and lightness. The lines of the jewels are soft and rounded, with flexible bracelets that introduce a note of modernity in the classic design of the Maison of Vicenza. The available variants include three gold washers (with or without diamonds) or a new stylistic solution which, of course, is declined in the whole set.
New jewels are added to the successful Eka Tiny collection by Fope ♦ ︎
One of Fope’s most recent collections, Eka Tiny, has proved a success. The secret? Simplicity combined with ease of use, ie pleasant softness and flexibility. It is, in fact, a collection that benefits from the patented Flex’it system, an invisible system that allows the gold mesh to be elastic. The jewels have classic gold and diamond washers or floral-inspired motifs.
In autumn Fope presented new pieces with renewed thicknesses and volumes by Eka Tiny. The line from the washer remind a wool skein and is presented in three versions: the most precious in full paved diamonds, the second divided into two parts, with and without stones and, finally, the sportier one completely in polished gold. The Fex’it mesh, as always, is declined in the three classic colors of gold: yellow, pink and white and in different thicknesses to be worn also with other bracelets or with the watch. Prices start at 1,400 euros up to 5,000 euros.
The 90 years of Fope: celebration with a new visual image and new jewels. Here are the news from Fope ♦ ︎
Eka Tiny is one of the Fope collections that has gained acclaim. The style is always the same: bracelets in the Flex’it version, necklaces of numerous lengths, rings and matching earrings. In short, technique and design to create that kind of gold mesh immediately recognizable by those who follow the Vicenza brand. Gold or diamond washers are added to the jersey of jewels (also with black diamonds for a masculine version). The 2019 collection adds to the existing range new soft and vaguely floral shapes.
But another important novelty of Fope is the new image of the brand and the visual appearance of the Maison.
A necessary operation, perhaps, given that Fope has turned 90 and felt the need to renew itself. In reality, the new aspect is connected to the company’s roots. The word Fope is now surrounded by a number, 1929 date of foundation, and by the name of the city where it is based, Vicenza. Two aspects that characterize the company not only as one of the innovators in the world of jewelry, but also as rooted in time and territory.
Next to the logo, Fope has published a catalog that also summarizes the concept visually: the jewels are combined with the ancient monuments that tell the long history of the city and its works of art. Thus Fope, a name that is the acronym of Fabbrica Oreficeria Preziosi Export, is ready for the next 90 years.
Fope renews the Love Nest collection: tubular mesh, Flex’it and washers with diamonds ♦
The tubular mesh and the patented Flex’it technique of Fope over the years have been used in various collections of the Veneto brand. Surely one of the most representative and also the most striking jewelry lines is Love Nest, which in 2019 presents itself with remarkable pieces. Fope explains that the collection is dedicated to elegant women who love gold jewelery that is important in size and timeless in design. And indeed it is true.
Love Nest does not go unnoticed: necklaces, earring, bracelets and ring have a considerable size and shape.
But, at the same time, the tubular knit that becomes Flex’it in the bracelets, remains in the traditional canons: it is flashy and sober at the same time. The 2019 version includes a complete re-design of the washer which, however, remains available in either gold or diamonds.
Fope Prima softness
It is called Prima the new Fope line based on the proven and renewed soft gold mesh system Flex’it.
Fope Launches New Flex’it mesh with Prima collection. Flex’it was invented and patented by Fope signed in 2007, but the new proposal has taken two years of investment and experimentation.

As with before, the mesh is thin and light, yet durable and able to hide dozens of tiny springs 18 carat gold which are those make so flexible bracelets and rings. The sets offer different combinations of elliptical rondelline and details in gold and diamonds. Prices: rings without diamonds start at 1200 Euros. For the ring with pavé you get 1900 euros.

Eka Tiny is the smaller version of a best-selling Fope: the braided wire in gold Flex’it, that makes bracelets or rings as soft cloth accessories. In short, comfort to wear along with the precious yellow metal. The idea is patented by time and constitutes one of the trump cards of Fope. Eka Tiny is part of this family jewelry: as its name indicates, is smaller than its big brother, but is made with the same seemingly (only in appearance, in fact) simple and articulated process that makes slight of this jewelry line. The little Eka showed in Baselworld Fair comes only in stores now.
