Luigi Sala Gioielli embraces fashion

/




Fashion and jewelry are sisters. But they don’t always walk together as, instead, they could and as it planned on the occasion of the Fashion Week in Milan (25-26 September), between Monos and Luigi Sala Gioielli. The event, called Fashion Art Vernissage, brought together Monos scarves and the jewels of the Milanese Maison. The Monos brand in its Jazz collection drew inspiration from art, painting the scarves as paintings on which to transfer existing works inspired, for example by Picasso’s cubism.

Foulard embellished by Luigi Sala Gioielli’s rings, which reflect tradition and stylistic research. An ideal setting for the debut of Triade, the glamorous collection of designer Gabriele Sala. The activity of the artisan jewelery company dates back to 1960, founded by Luigi Sala, who began his career as a goldsmith in 1949, at the age of 14, as a workshop apprentice. The production focuses on jewels, in gold, precious and semi-precious stones. From design to jewel, all stages of processing are carried out within the laboratory. The jewels are made of gold in various shades of color, diamonds, precious and semi-precious stones, pearls, coral, amber …

Neli Gems, smeraldi and friends

//




Especially large emeralds, but also other magnificent precious stones in the jewels by Neli Gems ♦ ︎

“Milan is the capital of good taste,” said Sam Livian, president of Neli Gems, a jewelry store based in New York. In fact, he knows Italy well, because in Milan, together with his brothers Eli and Gabriel, he grew up. Until, in 1977, the Livian family decided not to transfer the trade in precious stones to the US and to start the business of luxury jewelers. Obviously the stones are at the center of the composition of rings, necklaces and bracelets, and in particular Colombian emeralds, alongside rubies, sapphires and diamonds, including yellow, orange and very rare blue and pink, constitute a significant part of the activity of Neli Gems.

Neli Gems, however (the name also indicates it) has not abandoned the activity of stone trading: the Livian family think that the stones themselves are as precious as a finished jewel. In fact, the company has remained one of the largest importers of Colombian emeralds in the United States. Despite the whims of fashion, Livian observes, “if a stone is beautiful, it will always be beautiful”.

Spallanzani’s words

/




TSTQCA. It is difficult to guess the meaning of this acronym even for those who speak Italian. The acronym, in fact, means “You are everything I love” (Tu Sei Tutto Quello Che Amo). The idea was by Guido Spallanzani, son of the founder Carlo Spallanzani of one of the most exclusive jewelers in Milan, founded in 1880. The initials appeared, as a dedication to his wife Rosabianca, on a bracelet in 1970. That bracelet was then followed from others, to become the Only You collection, the most famous of the Maison. But bracelets don’t necessarily summarize a sentence. On the other hand, jewels contain a word, like the traditionals Love, Peace, but also the ironic Not Today and even Ex Wife, in case you want to happily communicate your divorce.

The jewels, made by artisans in the Vicenza district, are in 18-karat gold, yellow, pink or white, while the words are composed with a pavé of diamonds. The same line includes chevalier rings, however, made up of a single letter of the alphabet and earrings, which instead form words like those of bracelets or instead with single letters.

The jewels of the Magnifica collection by Bulgari

//




A social event after so many months of health restrictions could not go unnoticed: the launch of the Magnifica collection by Bulgari at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan was celebrated, told, photographed. But what does the Bulgari Magnifica collection consist of? The name of the collection does not betray expectations: 350 pieces of high jewelery composed of about sixty models, each with a value of many zeros. It is, in fact, that high jewelery, pieces destined for a lucky few, to show off on equally fortunate occasions.

Unique pieces composed of gems selected by Lucia Silvestri and composed in necklaces that are part of a world of their own: some pieces were made with 2,500 hours of work. For example, the necklace with diamonds and a spinel from Tajikistan weighing 131.21 carats, the fourth largest in the world. It is impossible to find something similar and whoever buys or receives a similar jewel as a gift will have the certainty of uniqueness. Although, then, the jewel will probably spend more time in a large safe.

With the launch of Magnifica, Bulgari focuses heavily on post-covid euphoria, which has made the desire for luxury re-emerge. Another necklace, with the shape of the snake that accompanies the Maison, features a 93-carat Colombian cabochon emerald. The style of the jewels is what characterizes Bulgari: large gems, many gems, especially gems. Color, gold, diamonds, wealth. But also the style and pride of the Italian Maison that is part of the French Empire LVMH. Finally, the collection, which is aimed at an international audience, also contains references to the world of art and culture, from the Renaissance painter Artemisia Gentileschi to the contemporary artist Tamara de Lempicka, from the Chinese writer Eileen Chang to the archistar Zaha Hadid. Some of the jewels are inspired by them, works of exceptional goldsmith virtuosity.

Alexandra Albini, ethics and heretics

//




The ethical and heretical jewels of the Milanese designer Alexandra Albini ♦ ︎

Milan is one of the capitals of design and for a week a year it becomes the world capital. It is not strange, therefore, that so many designers can be found in Milan. However, it is’t easy an interior designer becomes a jewelry designer. But that’s what Alexandra Albini chose, who lives and works in Milan, but also has Norwegian blood. From the cold North, Alexandra transmigrated to the Italian city where, in addition to the refinements of design, she also appreciated the Mediterranean culture and atmosphere, although Milan is the least Mediterranean of Italian centers. The style of her jewels, in fact, is also inspired by the jewelry of the ancient populations of the Italian peninsula.

Her unique pieces are handmade in 18 and 22 carat solid gold, using techniques from the distant past.

Anello in oro 18 carati e acquamarina

Even the stones are not cut according to the usual forms, but left almost rough, often with deliberately approximate shapes. To tell the truth, however, the style is not only inspired by the lands of the Mediterranean, but also by the much more exotic ones that the designer has encountered in her travels: Bali, India, Japan. Use only conflict free gold and stones collected with sustainable methods, and this is in the current trend. Instead, she scandalizes the jewelry purists when she confesses that she also uses materials such as plasticine for her projects: a heresy. But the ways of design are endless.

The four-leaf clover by Pia Mariani




Ururi is a small town in Molise (Italy) with ancient traditions, where the Arberesch language is also widespread, spoken by the Albanian ethno-linguistic minority. From there the designer Pia Mariani started for a long journey, to build her jewelry brand based in Milan. But, despite she living now hundreds of kilometers from her birthplace, the designer does not forget the historical roots of Ururi (a word that means aurora in arbersch), which are intertwined around the year one thousand with the conquest of the Norman Roberto Guiscardo and with an ancient monastery of Benedictine monks.

Pendente Quadrifoglio in oro 18 carati e zaffiro

The meadows of her land have now inspired the jewelry line called the Quadrifoglio (four-leaf clover), created by a Milanese goldsmith master. Among the leaves of the jewel there are drops of natural sapphires of different colors and aquamarines. Pia Mariani is not just a jewelry designer: she studied in Milan and graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts. She paints and started working as a fashion, fabric and poster designer. From 1980 to 1985 she also worked as a model for fashion houses such as Pims, Soprani, Callaghan and Versace. Now, however, she devotes herself entirely to jewelry with collections such as Sheherazade or Five.

Duepunti turns ten

//




Duepunti is ten years old, a brand born in early 2011 from the idea of ​​two historic Milanese jewelery companies: Blue Withe Group and Vai. The birthday is celebrated quietly, but Duepunti’s bijoux continue to be widely distributed: a sign that the theoretically crazy idea of ​​combining silicone and diamond works. Duepunti, in fact, offers rings and bracelets made of silicone, soft and elastic, set with a small diamond (0.02 carat) surrounded by an equally small silver border. An undoubtedly innovative idea.

Anello in silicone rosa con diamante

But not only that: the bijoux of the Milanese brand also have the particularity of being super colored and offered in an almost infinite range of shades. Finally, the ace in the hole is the price, which is unlikely to exceed one hundred euros (just a little). And the idea of ​​buying a real diamond for 25 euros (the price of a ring) is a surprising marketing strategy. The Duepunti brand is managed by Blue White Group, a company that has been operating in the jewelry and diamond trade for almost half a century and is owned by the Joshach family.

The hot metal by Bianca D’Aniello

Neapolitan, she lives and works in Milan (Italy): Bianca D ‘Aniello creates her bijoux, which she sells in the boutique in the Brera district, with ease. After 20 years she can be satisfied. She graduated in Literature with an artistic address, she opted to create jewelry in gold-plated brass, often satin and in a pastel color, where the design element is what matters most to her. They are bracelets, necklaces and earrings with a light-hearted, informal air, commonly referred to as gipsy.

Bracciale Warrior
Bracciale Warrior

Each piece is handmade in a few copies. Often the jewels are composed of many elements, such as links or chains, some cases finished with crystals or rhinestones. The inspiration for these textures comes from the beaches and the sunny climate of Southern Italy, but they are perfectly compatible with the colder environments of the North. The creative process is very personal: Bianca does not fold the materials to a design, but she proceeds in reverse: starting from the metal elements she proceeds to build her bijoux, then dipped in gold and finished.

Tennis bracelets, eternity rings, diamonds with emeralds, rubies and sapphires: the goldsmith tradition is at the heart of the jewels of Fabio Collection, a company active in jewelery founded in Milan (Italy) in 2010, right in the heart of the city’s goldsmith center. But the family business is longer and goes back two generations. The company is owned by the Gorjian family of Persian origins and at the helm of the company is Fabio Gorjian, assisted by his brother Ezzatollah. The company also produces classic jewelry on behalf of third parties and boasts a consolidated tradition in the goldsmith’s art, with the entire production being concentrated in Italy.

The three lives of Marco Valente

/

From Milan to Doha and beyond. The Milanese jewelry brand Marco Valente has experienced a first, second and third life, which extends beyond national borders. A story that starts in 1953, when Tranquillo Valente inaugurates his jewelery workshop in Milan and in a few years becomes a supplier for some of the most important Italian high jewelery brands, such as Nardi Venezia and Sara Scavia.

Anello in oro bianco e diamanti

His son, Marco Valente, continues his father’s work and designs collections for prestigious names in Italian jewelry. The company becomes Valente Gioiellieri in the early nineties and Marco Valente becomes supplier and creative director for brands such as Faraone and Tiffany & Co. After an unfortunate parenthesis in the Mariella Burani fashion group, the jeweler returns independent in 2010 with the brand Marco Valente Design.

Milanese jeweler Massimo Sanalitro loves make it big. He started as a teenager learning the secrets of gem cutting in Bologna. Then, he moved to Milan, where he worked with jewelers such as Buccellati and Angela Pintaldi. Finally, he went on his own and founded his Maison. But, in fact, to go big: in particular the jeweler is famous for his cocktail rings generously enriched with stones, often in a maxi format. A fame that has brought him to international markets: he has worked for the Russian designer Valentin Yudashkin and, sporadically, for creators such as Armani, Cavalli, Donna Karan, as well as passing through the windows of Bergdorf & Goodman, in New York.

Over time, the designer has not changed his habits and, every now and then, he surprises everyone with exceptional pieces. For example, this super ring with a 76.72 carat maxi aquamarine, covering three fingers of the hand, mounted on 18 carat white gold. However, the jewel weighs just over 30 grams and it is possible to wear it without problems. In addition, four diamonds are set on the prongs. Another recent and remarkable piece is a ring with a large emerald of 33.95 carats, set in a retro-flavored set, with gold and small diamonds.

The Duomo, like that of Milan, is often the symbol of Italian cities, and these churches-monuments is inspired the new collection of Rubeus. In Milan, for example, the most large church is located in the homonymous square, in the center of the city and is also the largest church in Italy: the basilica of St. Peter in Rome, in fact, is located in the territory of the Vatican City, which it is an autonomous state. And not only Milan Cathedral, which is also the third largest church in the world, but also other similar sacred places in Italian cities have provided the creative inspiration for the Milanese Maison Rubeus, founded by Nataliya Bondarenko.

The Duomo di Rubeus fine jewelery collection consists of rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces made up of bezels in yellow or white gold and precious stones. The geometric pattern alludes to the building’s Gothic-style windows, transformed into elements that move the surface of the jewel. In some pieces, the bezels contain a brilliant-cut diamond, or sapphires, emeralds, rubies. In other cases, the same shape is adopted to give shape to semi-precious stones, such as jasper, spinel, tourmaline, turquoise or amethyst.
