The Private Collection of Tamara Comolli with precious stones, can be viewed only by appointment (or on this page) ♦ ︎
The rules, or customs, are made to repeat over time. But also to be transgressed, when this is the case. Everything is how the transgressions succeed: they can be resolved in a banal gesture of rebellion, or in something innovative, which evolves into a new standard, rule, norm, which in turn will sooner or later undergo a revolution. These courses and historical repeating also belong to the world of jewelry. An example is that of Tamara Comolli, a German designer who built an entire company and, above all, a style thanks to the use of colored stones, rigorously cut like an acorn. These elongated cabochons have been used by Tamara Comolli to compose innumerable variations of her collections.

But even for a designer who is attached to a form that becomes iconic, there is a momentum to change or, better, to introduce something new comes. This is the case of the Private Collection. “A special gem requires a special design”, is the premise of the designer from Munich, but with international culture and standing. So instead of acorns with quartz, citrine or turquoise, the jewels of this collection use more precious stones, such as tourmalines, spinels or classic diamonds, and with much more traditional cuts. And the name? Private Collection is called this because it can only be viewed by appointment. Or on these pages of Gioiellis.com, of course. Lavinia Andorno
