Codognato, the art of jewelry in Venice

From Pop Art to the art of ancient Venice: myths and jewels of Attilio Codognato ♦

He was friends with Andy Warhol, which he attended for a long time in New York, and of Roy Lichtenstein. Of the two standard bearers of Pop Art, but not only them, he papered his house in Venice. Yet it is from the cultural roots of the most beautiful lagoon city in the world that Attilio Codognato, who passed away in November 2023, drew inspiration for his jewels. Or, rather, this is what the jewelery shop in Piazza San Marco does, opened by his grandfather, Simeone Codognato in 1866, which continues to offer small glimpses of the art of the sixteenth and seventeenth century Venice, but in miniature.​

Two, in particular, forms of jewelry that Codognato did become icons: the «moretto», traditional figure, that recurs in the paintings of the Venetian Renaissance, and the skull of “memento mori”, which in the past was a warning to ponder: remember that you have to die. Although the subject is macabre, the craftsmanship, luxury, artistic interpretation and transposition in the form of jewelry, they have been successful. And thanks to its attachment to tradition the now jewelry is part of the Venetian landscape. In short, a mix of gold, archeology, passion for art are the elements of the recipe of what is one of the oldest Italian jewelers. Rudy Serra

Sophie Bille Brahe’s bubbles of diamonds and pearls






Venice has inspired poets, painters, musicians. But also jewelers and designers. In the case of the Danish Sophie Bille Brahe, however, Venice was not the muse, but Murano. The island near the lagoon city is famous for its glass craft workshops. And it is precisely the artisans-artists of Murano, who work the delicate material, that Sophie Bille Brahe has decided to combine pearls and glass spheres, in an unusual and refined mix.

In short, the Copenhagen designer added something more to her way of making jewelry, a passion she has cultivated since she was a child. Once grown up, she studied jewelry design at the Royal College of Art in London and trained with master jewelers in her hometown. She founded his brand in 2011. The jewels are handmade using secular jewelery techniques.

She divides his jewelry into two broad lines: pearls and diamonds. In both cases she uses that simple and intelligent design that is typical of the Nordic countries. Pearls are often used in clusters with ever-changing volumes, while diamonds are aligned with a rivière that provides movement to the composition. Simple, but effective.

Sophie Monet and California wood




In Venice (California), the designer Sophie Monet has chosen the path of nature with fine wood jewelry and stones.
The collection is called Bella Italia and it is produced in Venice, California, a little town so named because it is crossed by some channel and offers views with few houses that do not exceed two storeys. But, probably, the Venice beaches inspire Sophie Monet, a designer can boast a commendable desire to propose jewels that have two advantages: a very orderly form, clean, simple, and being absolutely environmentally friendly. And the sustainability of the jewelry to the environment is not a minor issue, both for the impact on the area where are the mines, often with processes that have a profound effect on the ground, both for the employment of labor.

The jewelry line Bella Italia, however, is in fine woods, such as mahogany. Well yes, but it is not simple cheap jewelry. The pieces are made with care and also have the air of being resistant over time. In some cases they are combined with gold-plated metal or stones such as agate. The price is pretty affordable. They are also sold online, with prices ranging between 100 and 250 euro.

New Venetian princesses for Roberto Coin




What girl wouldn’t like to be a Venetian princess? The idea appears attractive to a large number of women fascinated not only by the noble title, but also by the atmosphere of the most magical city in the world. And this is the idea behind the Venetian Princess collection by Roberto Coin, which is now being renewed. The collection, presented years ago, has over time added new pieces to its vast catalog. Now it’s the turn of new jewels with malachite and lapis lazuli inserts. The semi-precious stones are set in pink or white gold, accompanied by diamonds and the classic ruby ​​placed inside the jewel (a characteristic of the Maison). Furthermore, next to the gold with twisted thread there is also a process called style titanium.

The style, which is similar to that of the Princess Flower collection, is based on the motif of the four-lobed flower derived from the flowery Gothic used for much of Venetian architecture. This motif occurs in the oldest buildings in Venice in the openings between small close columns, in the openings above quadrilobate openings, in the decorations along the roof line. Jewels, like the palaces of Venice, communicate a sense of wealth and abundance. Worthy of a Venetian princess.

Lo stile, che è simile a quello della collezione Princess Flower, si basa sul motivo del fiore a quattro lobi derivato dal gotico fiorito utilizzato per buona parte dell’architettura veneziana. Questo motivo ricorre nelle costruzioni più antiche di Venezia nelle aperture tra piccole colonne ravvicinate, nei trafori sopra aperture quadrilobate, nelle decorazioni lungo la linea del tetto. I gioielli, come i palazzi di Venezia, comunicano un senso di ricchezza e abbondanza. Degno di una principessa veneziana.

Palwer, precision in Venice

/




Among the beautiful things in Venice there are also the jewels of the designer Alessandro Palwer. Here are some examples ♦

Gold, diamonds and rope in the bracelets and necklaces of the Venetian designer Alessandro Palwer. That works precisely on the shapes and volumes of a contemporary classic such as chain links, with elements with clean, rounded or elongated lines, in pink gold and brown diamonds, shiny yellow gold, white gold and gray diamonds. The result? Elegant, yet informal and easy to wear jewelry, that transversal understatement of fashions that makes people ask: “Nice, where did you buy it?”. In short, the maximum of chic. Palwer’s jewels are very different from each other: from the collection inspired by drops of water with moonstones and diamonds, to smoky emerald cut quartz mounted on an intricate combination of curves, to the splendor of the mirrored surfaces.

The designer has an uncommon story: he was born and raised in Rome, but then he focused on Paris, where he worked with Parisian fashion brands and was also creative director of Ungaro for over ten years. Not happy, he also founded a furniture and accessories company: Suite 307. In addition, he also created costumes for many opera productions. But then he decided to move to Venice and design refined jewels, with a rigorous design.

The precious wood of Nalj




From the Venice Lagoon, or from Africa, Indonesia … in the name of nature. Annalisa Mirizzi and Mimmo Demattia are the two jewelry designers of Nalj, a small Apulian brand based in Polignano a Mare, a town that stands on a rocky spur and is a tourist destination. The two designers have chosen to use different types of wood to make their jewels. Earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings are therefore composed of kauri, millennial New Zealand wood, or American walnut, Lebanese cedar, olive, oak, ebony, wenge, accando semiprecious and semiprecious stones, 925 silver and gold. But not only. Another idea of ​​Nalj, in fact, is to use the wood of the Venetian briccole,

Anello realizzato con il legno di una briccola
Anello realizzato con il legno di una briccola

The briccole of Venice are those oak poles planted in the middle of the water to facilitate the direction of the boats that ply the lagoon. The briccole last for decades, but periodically (after about five to ten years) they must be replaced. The jewels of the Nalj line, therefore, reuse this wood tempered by the wind of the Venetian lagoon to make their own jewels. Years ago, for example, with this wood Nalj presented a collection in combination with the luxury motorboat brand Riva.

Venice transformed into high jewelry by Chanel

////




High jewelery among the canals, the luxurious palaces, the evocative views of Venice. Chanel has decided to transform the myth of the most famous lagoon city in the world into a collection that includes 70 pieces. The collection is called Escale à Venise and the Italian city was chosen not only for its beauty, the uniqueness of its architecture and the atmosphere that reigns in the alleys, but also because it was loved by Mademoiselle Coco, the founder of the Parisian Maison. Coco Chanel discovered Venice in 1920, after the accidental death of her great love, Boy Capel. The great French designer was fascinated, like many others, by the beauty of the city and now, 80 years later, Patrice Leguéreau, director of the jewelry creation studio, has revived those emotions through jewels.

And it is not the first time, because Chanel was already get an allusion to Venice with the Sous le signe du lion collection in 2013. Architecture and the typical elements of the city, such as the colored striped poles that serve to moor gondolas and boats, become high jewelry. In the collection, as in the Cathedral of San Marco, there are also oriental suggestions, the result of the trade of the ancient Venetians across the Adriatic Sea. As in the case of the Camélia Byzantin plastron, with yellow sapphires surrounding a flower with gemstone petals. Other jewels, on the other hand, seem to allude to the golden age of the Venetian eighteenth century. There is also the silhouette of the lion symbol of the city, made up of diamonds.

Burato among the stars

Burato is a historic jewelry brand located in the Venice area, but it is also one of the few in the sector to present a collection with a pinch of originality. On Facebook, in fact, we read: “Galileo Galilei was in the city of Venice when he presented to the lagoon government the invention that would revolutionize the world of astronomy forever: the telescope. More than 400 years after that day, the mysterious charm of the celestial vault still does not stop us dreaming looking up “.

Damiani buy the last shares of the Venini glassworks





Not just jewelry: the watchword of the Damiani family is to diversify in the luxury sector. The company that controls the Valenza-based company, in fact, has announced the acquisition of the latest tranche of the share package of Venini, the historic Venice brand. These are the shares that were still in the possession of the previous shareholders, some of which, Damiani points out, will continue to collaborate with the company.

The new move began three years ago with the acquisition by Damiani of the majority of the Venini brand, previously owned by Chimento, another name of the jewelry which, however, found itself in financial difficulty.

The goal of the three brothers is, in fact, to give a new impulse to one of the most authentic excellences of made in Italy and, specifically, of made in Murano, an island near Venice where the Venini glassworks has been located for almost a hundred years.

The strong commitment of the Damiani family (also with a capital increase of 4 million) towards the Venini brand provides for a substantial foreign development plan, especially in the Asian markets which demonstrate a considerable interest in what the brand represents in terms of artistic content and of values. In line with this strategy, for example, Venini has recently opened a new showroom in South Korea, in the most lively and dynamic fashion district of Seoul: Gangnam. In addition, the flagship store of Via Monte Napoleone in Milan was opened.
