FuturoRemoto

With futuroRemoto Unconventional Jewelery on the catwalk




Fashion and jewelry: it is the story of a friendship destined to last for a long time. The list of stylists who have collaborated with jewelry designers is numerous and to this is now added the capsule collection called Unconventional Jewelery created by Ennio Capasa in collaboration with Gianni De Benedittis, founder and soul of the futuroRemoto brand. The jewels of the collection appeared on the catwalk, on the occasion of the Milanese fashion shows.

In homage to another fashion, which this time concerns a social aspect, jewels are indicated as genderless and fluid. Men or women are categories that, at least in the fashion world, seem to have less and less meaning. The Unconventional Jewelery is made of ethical silver and gold, blue Thaitian pearls extrapolated with sustainable systems and is made and distributed by futuroRemoto.

The symbolic dreams by futuroRemoto

///




An old Italian film from the 1950s was called It’s not true … but I believe it. The story revolved, with humorous intent, on superstition. Little has changed since then: the amulet remains, in Italy and in the rest of the world, one of the favorite types of buyers. “Who knows it doesn’t really work?” And so almost all jewelers provide a version of lucky charms. A new contribution to the idea that a small metal sculpture has who knows what powers comes from FuturoRemoto, an Apulian brand founded by designer Gianni de Benedittis.

The Dreamers’ Room is a collection that uses ancient symbols such as the pentacle pendant, a symbol of strength and beauty, the two-tailed Milk Mermaid (in the Middle Ages they believed she converted her milk into gold), the protective lions of the world, the Wheel of luck with the signs of the zodiac and the phoenix, back in the news with the Harry Potter films. The jewels are in gold-plated silver, but on request it is possible to obtain a version made entirely of yellow metal.

Even in this case, however, there is a film involved, that of presenting the jewelry collection, directed by Stefania Rocca, leading actress Serra Yilmaz and the participation of Gabriele Greco.

At the seaside with a futuroRemoto

/




Wearing jewels on the beach or, worse, during a bath in sea water is inadvisable and, in many cases, dangerous (see also: Sea and jewels, here’s what to do). But nothing prevents you from wearing jewelry that is reminiscent of the marine environment. Maybe with a little humor, as in the case of the jewels designed by Gianni De Benedittis, founder of the futuroRemoto Apulian brand. The Takerisks collection, for example, includes a triple ring featuring the sea, the motorboat and a shark. Because the sea can also reserve surprises.

Other marine-themed jewels, from the same collection, snorkeling ring and necklace, which recall the pleasure of exploring the hidden seabed. The jewels are available in two versions, a prêt à porter line in silver and enamels, or a luxury one, made of 925% burnished silver, 750% gold mask lenses with white diamonds and rubies. Or, again with a marine theme, there is the whale ring in 925% silver and 750% gold, with blue sapphires and white diamonds.

The moths of futuroRemoto

/




Moths: small flying animals that have inspired, with different results, poets, painters and, now, even jewelers. The futureRemoto Apulian Maison, in fact, presents new jewels in a line entitled Falene (moths). Not surprisingly, these small representatives of the fauna return to populate the air during the spring and summer. They are also romantic symbols of lightness and transience, even if for entomologists, moths are simply insects which, like butterflies, belong to the order of lepidoptera. But this is a consideration that does not involve common opinion, which considers moths mysterious animals due to their habit of flying at night. And if there are those who associate these insects with bad omens and doom, Native Americans, on the contrary, have always considered moths with great regard for their ability to adapt, survive and transform.

General considerations aside, the collection created by Gianni De Benedittis includes bracelets in the shape of dragonflies, branches intertwined with small flowers and insects, butterfly rings, with movable wings, operated by the fingers. The jewels are in silver and gold, decorated with enamels of various shades.

Love for the futuroRemoto

///




In the past or in the future, love has played and will play an important part in the life of every woman and man. In the futuroRemoto (future and past), brand by Gianni De Benedittis, therefore, could not miss an answer to the call of February 14, the day of lovers. Even if the jewels are also worn on the other days of the year. In any case, the Apulian Maison founded by the whimsical designer presented a small capsule collection to coincide with the party of lovers. The jewels are handmade in silver dipped in gold with enamel details.

The heart-shaped ring has a design consisting of several layers that form the profile of a heart. And also the internal space of the metal band where the finger is inserted has the same iconic profile. One of the two necklaces incorporates the same aesthetic concept of the ring, while the other has a pendant that focuses entirely on irony, because it depicts a little man kneeling, as if asking for a bride for the woman he loves, while holding a large red heart. Prices: ring 150 euros, heart pendant 350 euros, pendant with red heart 330 euros.

Jewelry for sports with futuroRemoto

In the game of tennis, the smash is a shot that is made by intercepting the ball above the head, with a quick downward movement very similar to that of the service. Pam. And the ball runs to the opposite field. Or it turns into a jewelry collection. Like that of futuroRemoto, the brand of designer Gianni De Benedittis, who, to make the jewelry line more convincing, fielded actress Stefania Rocca, complete with a tennis racket.

The Smash collection, of course, is inspired by sport not only as an opportunity for physical well-being. But, underlines the brand, also as a meeting place, for the growth and formation of the soul, for a sustainable and inclusive development of different identities. The collection consists of 15 pieces designed in 3D. The jewels are made in the shape of small human bodies with muscles defined by exercise tension and some gym equipment such as weights and dumbbells, so not only tennis is privileged. There are also scales, which become hanging. The jewels are in silver and gold, to be personalized with the application of diamonds.

FuturoRemoto launches a ring inspired by the coronavirus

//





A ring inspired by the coronavirus: the idea is by Gianni De Benedittis, an Apulian jeweler who with his futuroRemoto is not new to biotechnological themes. The latest creation, however, takes its cue from the health emergency that has now infected many countries in the world. With its future brand Remote, in fact, De Benedittis presented Emergency Ring, a jewel made both in silver with gold bath, and in gold and diamonds. The ring has the shape of a face with a protective mask and, in the intent of the designer, is a warning not to fall victim to collective psychosis.

Some time ago, however, futuroRemoto had presented the Bacterium collection, inspired by the plastic-eating bacterium Ideonella Sakaiensis 201 – F6. Obviously the biological theme inspires the creativity of the founder of the Lecce brand. De Benedittis was trained at Le Arti Orafe in Florence, the P. Selvatico institute of Padua and the City College of Manchester. In 2007 he won the Who is on Next? by Vogue Italia for jewelery. Since 2009 he has collaborated with Guillermo Mariotto for the Maison Gattinoni and since 2010 with the director Ferzan Ozpetek in the creation of jewels for his films and operas.

The carnivorous jewels of futuroRemoto

///





Carnivorous plants become the subject that inspires the Carnivorous collection of the futuroRemoto by Gianni De Benedittis ♦ ︎

It is a paradox: while the number of humans who choose to be vegetarian and do not eat meat is growing, there are plants that are carnivorous. They represent almost a revenge against the animal kingdom, a bridge between the two worlds. And, precisely for this reason, they fascinate everyone, jewelers included. The Carnivorous collection by Gianni De Benedittis is dedicated to these plants capable of swallowing naive flies. A collection presented at Milan Jewelry week, of which the designer with his Maison futuroRemoto is special guest.

The pieces of the Carnivorous collection are all in silver and gold, designed in 3D and made with the precision casting technique. Carnivorous plants are also enriched with emeralds, rubies and diamonds. The shape of the jewels recalls that of the plants to which they are inspired but, obviously, without being a naturalistic reproduction of the plants.

Another counter-current collection is Bacterium, inspired by micro-eating plastic organisms, reproduced in jewels: small silver spheres with a gold bath, always made with the technique of casting and the use of colored enamels, with peduncles to form rings and bracelets, or pendants and earrings.

Furthermore, on Friday 25 October 2019 De Benedittis will proceed with the assignment of the futuroRemoto Jewels Prize, established in collaboration with Artistar Jewels (the winner will receive a cash contribution plus a trophy consisting of a gold ruler made for the occasion). The prizes are destined respectively to an artist of Artistar Jewels and to a student of one of the schools participating in the Milan Jewelry Week who will have distinguished themselves for their excellent mastery of the goldsmith’s technique and for the attention to the needs and trends of the fashion system.

FuturoRemoto, nature is cyber

///





The cyber world meets nature in the FuturoRemoto ︎ jewelery collections ♦

For a brand called FuturoRemoto what better ambassador can there be more than one android? In fact, time ago, in Rome, during the symposium of digital geopolitics organized by Elettronica Group, here is Sophia, a completely digital guest star. It’s an android that speaks English perfectly and loves fashion. At the event roman it was presented itself with a high fashion dress signed Gattinoni and made by the creative director of the historic fashion house, Guillermo Mariotto. And with a wide and futuristic cyber necklace created exclusively by the goldsmith Gianni de Benedittis: a kind of planets orbiting around the neck sculpted with meteorite stones coming directly from the United States. And De Benedittis is the founder of

FuturoRemoto, a small jewelry Maison born in Lecce, Puglia, South of Italy.

In the FuturoRemoto collections there are also rings with the shape of aliens and earrings inspired by space adventures.
The choice to adorn the neck of the android Sophia, therefore, proved to be right. But the designer of the Lecce brand is not focused exclusively on cyber subject. His jewels, which can be simply silver plated or gold and precious stones, are also inspired by other themes, such as nature and the fashion world. The spring 2019 collection, for example, also includes a ring with the shape of a grasshopper. Margherita Donato

FuturoRemoto on the fly

From the capital of the Baroque of Italy in Vicenza Oro: new jewelry of FuturoRemoto by Gianni De Benedictis.
If you want to find the Remote Future go in Puglia. The apparent contradiction, sophisticated, is been created by the laborious mind of Gianni De Benedictis, the way of the Italian South to jewelry design, which chose Lecce as a city in which to live and work. From this secluded corner of Italy, between the sea and the baroque churches, he managed to win an amazing visibility. Surprising for decentralized location where he is, not for the result of his work that in 2010 won an important stage, when her jewels were chosen by director Ferzan Ozpetek’s for his film Mine Vaganti and, later, to some representations of Aida. De Benedictis has another specificity: he loves the kinetic jewelry, that allow movement to some elements. Perhaps for this reason he chose as the name FuturoRemoto, an oxymoron that refers to something of the past but that is in the making. But not only: among the best known pieces of FuturoRemoto there are also proposals that have a significant irony, as the Food Collar, with a fork that rolls up spaghetti. Or the PortaRispetto Ring, The Godfather that’s in you. Gianni De Benedictis has instead shows Falene collection. Lavinia Andorno
