Pomellato, Le Joaillier Révolutionnaire
At the Palais de Tokyo, Pomellato’s first exhibition in Paris explored the revolutions that have shaped the Maison since 1967: in style, goldsmithing craftsmanship, colour, image and its relationship with women. Curated by Alba Cappellieri, Full Professor and Director of the Jewelry Design programme at Politecnico di Milano, the exhibition brought together archival creations, contemporary collections and the creative codes that define Pomellato’s identity, while tracing its dialogue with some of the world’s most celebrated photographers.
Conceived as an immersive journey through jewellery, photography and design, the exhibition highlighted the Maison’s distinctive perspective: free-spirited, bold and deeply connected to women’s lives. Works by Gian Paolo Barbieri, Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, Snowdon and Michel Comte, among others, revealed how Pomellato has helped redefine the image of jewellery, while iconic chains, sculptural volumes and unconventional gemstones showcased its innovative strength in form, craftsmanship and colour.
Connecting every chapter of the exhibition was Pomellato’s most heartfelt commitment: women. From jewels conceived as symbols of independence and personal expression to the enduring voice of the Pomellato for Women communication platform, the Maison champions a vision of femininity that is strong, inclusive and never defined by others.
On the occasion of the exhibition’s opening, the Maison unveiled Pomellato Stile Libero, its High Jewelry collection, at a private event at the Palais de Tokyo. The evening welcomed brand ambassadors Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Benedetta Porcaroli, Pilar Fogliati, Hande Erçel and Yang Zi, alongside Catherine Deneuve, Kerry Washington, Carla Bruni, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Isabella Ferrari, Farida Khelfa, Amelia Gray, Amina Seck, Michel Comte and numerous international guests, in a celebration of creative freedom, savoir-faire and contemporary femininity.
