The endless series of cuff links of Gioielleria Villa in Milan: for men or women, combines craftsmanship and goldsmith virtuosity.
There are jewelry for men that the Big Brother lovers wear without moderation. There are others which, if are looked, tear a smile, curiosity and admiration for their ingenious imagination. Fall into this category the cufflinks, one of the few occasions for a man to wear jewelry also in formal occasions. As the tie, a pair of twins may constitute an transgression on a shirt under a gray suit, a pinstripe, a blue blazer.

If, then, the twins are those Jewellery Villa di Milano, every eccentricity is welcome thanks to the imagination and precious workmanship of a vast set of twins. They come in all types, from classic with a geometric shape, those representing cars, helicopters, animals, hobbies, sports. But, perhaps, the most sophisticated being those that have the form of buttons, that is, the element it replaces. These twins are pieces of quality jewelry and, therefore, have a variable cost: from a few hundred Euros, up to thousands of Euros for the pair in gold and rubies. In brackets: nothing prevents that are wore by a woman.

Gioielleria Villa, in any case, not only offers twins, but also exquisite pieces of jewelry (we’ll talk about in another article). It also has a long tradition: is born in 1876, while Giuseppe Verdi composed Othello, from the work of Benvenuto Villa. Who also has a curious history: the goldsmith, sculptor and alchemist, has tried in vain for life the formula to produce a black gold alloy. Example of his creativity is an extremely modern sculpture silver Cube collapsible with which he won the gold medal at the famous Paris Universal Exhibition of 1889.

Verdi’s Swing

Bracciale della collezione Swing




What would Giuseppe Verdi have said about swing? Perhaps the famous Italian opera composer would have been perplexed. The namesake founder of Verdi Gioielli, Maison in Valenza, on the other hand, can only be satisfied: Swing, in fact, is the name of the collection that is currently among the ones that shines the most in the sky of the Piedmontese company. Swing, in fact, is a word connected to rhythm and, therefore, to the musical environment, such as the one frequented by Giuseppe Verdi (the other, the composer). Furthermore, swing music is linked to the jazz genre and thus fits in well with the vaguely retro artistic motifs of the collection.

The jewels of the Swing collection are made of white gold and diamonds but, above all, they have a soft and elaborate style, which seems to come directly from certain decorations of the first half of the last century. Stylized flowers and butterflies, but also volumes reminiscent of a ballerina, as in the case of the necklace, alternate with geometric motifs for large bracelets, rings and earrings.

[wzslider]Il fondatore si chiama come il musicista: Giuseppe Verdi. Da allora, era il 1971, è passato qualche decennio. Ma Verdi Gioielli è rimasta fedele alla linea stilistica del fondatore, ora presidente della società, molto caratterizzata per scelte e linea. Uno stile che è nella penna di Giovanna Protti, da oltre 20 anni art director della maison, mentre la gestione manageriale è passata al figlio del fondatore, Marco. L’idea di fondo è che oro, diamanti e pietre preziose non comunicano niente senza stile, creatività e personalità. Ed è quanto l’azienda presenta anche a Baselworld, la grande exhibition che richiama i più grandi produttori di gioielleria. Ecco in anteprima qualche immagine delle nuove collezioni di Verdi Gioielli. G.N.

And this is what the company also presents at Baselworld, the great exhibition that attracts the largest manufacturers of jewelry.
