As every year since 2007 Picchiotti unveils the Unique Art Collection, the top of its production of fine jewelry and for 2015 the best of the best is a necklace of rubies and diamonds, one-of-a-kind piece of course, with matching earrings. One of the characteristics of Picchiotti in general and in particular of this collection are colored stones, in this case a selection of rubies classified pigeon blood, ie a hue of bright, brilliant red most appreciated by the market because without saturations of brown or purple. The uniqueness of the jewel however is not only the category of gems, which are quite rare and difficult to find in a such quantity, but also the choice of heart and pear cut, two shapes where it is more difficult to maintain a perfect symmetry. Of course, the result leaves no doubt on the ability and competence of the Valenza based company: the jewel queen worthy is a mix of creativity and tradition in its sinuous and feminine lines. Even the price is regal: 970 thousand dollars. Monica Battistoni
