Elements used in industry, monocles and a little imagination: are the bijoux of an artisan from the Veneto, Monica Trevisi ♦

In a corner of the deep Veneto, near Treviso, Monica Trevisi, an artisan of jewelry, has combined three factors: steel, stones and rock. Intended as a musical genre. Her jewels are the result of marriage on a virtual stage of transparent rock crystal, gems and hammered metals. A bit ‘post-industrial, like her laboratory: Filanda Motta, a former industry restructured in the province of Treviso.

The result of her work is also Monoclò, a necklace that stands out from the others especially for a particular: the pendant is a lens, maybe useful for those who want to enlarge an image or, why not ?, a message on the smartphone. In short, a jewel to you see clearly. But there is not only that: its jewels are also made with elements used in industry such as springs, washers, rings, nuts, buckles. Obviously these objects are reinterpreted to be used as jewels.

From managerial work in the world of fashion in Italy and the USA, between wool and cotton fabrics and yarns, to solid steel threads: Monica Trevisi has changed the weave. Although something that binds her to her first life has remained: her laboratory is in fact in the late nineteenth century building where the Filanda Motta was once active, in Mogliano Veneto (Treviso, Italy). In short, he always deals with threads, but now his work is a bridge between ancient mechanics and goldsmithery.

Iron, steel, brass, copper and silver wires form complicated links and are associated in some cases with hard stones, crystals, gems, leather. It should be noted that the metal, worked in this way, is soft: no armor effect, in short. Monica Trevisi’s bijoux are of considerable size and are suitable for those who love an unconventional, modern, different design too. Even if the jewels are handmade, in the designer’s laboratory, they are still offered at low prices: from 40 to 330 euros maximum.

Monica Trevisi, Mati collection

Published on May 8, 2015

Showroom

Monica Trevisi, Venetian designer with a very personal style (https://gioiellis.com/la-collana-monocolo-di-monica) launches the Mati collection. The name is not exactly common: after a painstaking research on the internet we found that it is a word in the Nahuatl language, which is of the Uto-Aztecan origin, spoken in some corner of Mexico. And perhaps now also used in Veneto. In any case it means something like to know, what you know. Mati includes bracelets, earrings and necklaces always in style adopted by designers, with the use of metal almost child of the industrial revolution: steel, brass and copper. But the arabesques made from wires that seem to come from a electric spiral (the effect is very modern and staff) are balanced by the color of stones set, a contrast that makes it less dramatic the aesthetic impact. And like. Giulia Netrese
