Hypnotic Shadows
In this chapter, freedom is expressed through artisanal virtuosity. Openwork, one of the oldest goldsmithing techniques, unfolds through two complementary visions. The first interprets the classical technique through the lens of French artist Sara Bran, offering a poetic study of light and shadow. The second reimagines openwork in a contemporary key, with a pattern that echoes the sinuous movement of chains.
Arabesque
Arabesque revisits openwork with artist Sara Bran. A rose gold plaque is hand-pierced into a lace-like architecture, lit by 18 rose-cut and 4,123 brilliant diamonds. Requiring 1,450 hours of craftsmanship, the necklace is echoed by a pair of manchette bracelets in white gold and diamonds — a balance of solids and voids.
Ipnotica
Ipnotica is Pomellato's modern vision of openwork, a graphic pattern that mirrors the fluid rhythm of chains. In rose gold, a ring and earrings are hand-pierced from solid gold into a light framework of interlaced forms, animated by looping links in white and brown diamonds that trace the design.
