Bonded to nature necklace

Gioielli in Fermento 2016. Un gioiello, come il vino,
è una miracolosa combinazione tra libertà e vincolo.
Ispirata al tema d libertà e vincolo, in natura, la collana rimanda a
due figure geometriche: il quadrato e il cerchio, a rappresentare
rispettivamente l’elemento terra con i suoi prodotti e l’elemento aria.
La connessione tra le due forme avviene attraverso fronde e frammenti
che ricordano i tralci della vite. Il lavoro pone in relazione la materia
prima naturale – i tralci – con quella lavorata, argento e rame.

Gioielli in Fermento 2016. A piece of jewellery is an amazing
combination of freedom and constraint, like wine is.

Getting into the theme of freedom and bonds, this necklace explores
two geometrical figures: the square and the circle, representing the Earth
and its production and Air respectively.
The integration between the two forms are done with some red strings
around it which reminds the vine branches. The piece integrates raw
material – the vine branches – with processed material – silver and copper.
