Anello in oro 14 carati, rubini e rodio nero

As often happens in the United States, moving from one city to another, often even changing the time zone, is not unusual. Rachel Quinn, however, has made a lot of moves. Born in a small town in the deep south of the USA in contact with nature, she moved to Scotland to study at the School of Art The Glasgow School of Art. Back in America, she continued her art studies in Boston, and then Metal and Jewelry Arts in the Bfa of New York, the city where he followed his apprenticeship in jewellery. Finished? No, because she now lives and works in Ojai Valley, Southern California, where she has founded her jewelry brand since 2011.

Her premise on her school curriculum serves to explain why Rachel Quinn’s jewelry seems inspired by pop art and surrealism. Lips, hearts, skulls: 14-karat gold, together with mother-of-pearl, or precious and semi-precious stones are used to create modern jewelery with a special creative touch. Her jewels are also sold through online platforms, such as Moda Operandi.

The pop, hip-hop and post punk style in gold and platinum by Wendy Brandes ♦ ︎

Wendy Brandes started as a reporter at the Wall Street Journal, then worked at CNN and was the editorial director of the People magazine website. Finally, she changed her life and moved into jewelry design in New York. Not only. Some time ago she introduced an innovative sales system for her jewelry: Wendy Brandes Concierge. The idea was to offer a particular piece of jewelry to a retailer without obligation, which she can choose from the catalog. In one city, the jeweler who accepts the proposal obtains the exclusivity of the brand. A customer then has the opportunity to purchase the jewel in the shop. If, however, no purchase is made, the jewel is returned to Wendy at no additional cost. Wendy is also committed to providing informational support via the web regarding her collections. But currently this type of partnership seems to be shelved.

And the style of the jewels? It’s easy to say: pop, post punk, hip-hop style. The line is divided into three distinct collections, inspired by the unique qualities of specific precious metals, but linked by the definition of jewelry for witty people: Wendy Brandes gold, Wendy Brandes platinum and Wendy Brandes silver.

Claudia Oddi, from Parma to the States to create super jewels in the spirit of luxury, New York and pop art ♦

Well, yes, also in Parma, far from Paris, Milan or New York can birth new jewelry like those of Claudia Oddi. But this is not the whole truth. Because the designer grew up in Manhattan. And the atmosphere of the Big Apple, especially the artistic environment, can be seen in his work. Echoes of the era of Pop Art, the search for new ways in which to present a jewel. On the other hand, the designer is the heir of a family of jewelers and then he learned quickly what it means jewellery. After the most filmed city in the world, Claudia Oddi went to Milan and then to Florence, where he learned what there is to learn in the field of jewelery. Curiously, but not too much, the tradition has been assimilated and stored in a drawer: the jewels of his three collections, of which we present the images, are as far removed there from the habit of the Italian goldsmith. The Equalizer collection, for example, is inspired by the bars that appear on the display of the music playback devices. The Pop collection, as its name indicates, is a tribute to Andy Warhol’s Factory and to Roy Lichtenstein. And Rainbow is a literal interpretation of the colors of the chromatic scale.
