Contemporary Heritage
Evoking the sculptural power of the Castello Sforzesco, the Contemporary Heritage chapter transforms its stone façades into necklaces, rings and earrings with a striking presence. The city’s history and ancient defences are brought to life through the Maison’s goldsmithing mastery: crisp contours, polished surfaces and architectural reliefs shape creations that bring Milan’s heritage into the present.
Castello
Inspired by an archival choker from 1972, the Castello necklace combines rose gold plates with gourmette links set with over 28 carats of baguette-, princess- and brilliant-cut diamonds. Five rubellites totalling over 29 carats, together with baguette- and princess-cut diamonds, are set in reverse: an unconventional technique that evokes the rusticated stonework of the Castello’s façades, with its sharp edges and pronounced relief, giving rise to a new pavé effect known as bossage. The creation required over 165 hours of goldsmithing.
Dama
Designed to be worn as a pair, one on each wrist, the Dama rose gold bracelets reinterpret the gourmette link on an oversized scale. Each bracelet unfolds in a continuous gesture of rounded rose gold, sensuous and tactile. Along the profile, a double row of diamonds traces its silhouette, creating a luminous contrast with the fluidity of the form.
