Charlotte
The creation
Charlotte is a ring with sapphire bespoke yellow in 18-carat white gold, surrounded by diamonds natural white diamonds. The composition develops a luminous and harmonious presence, in which the dialogue between the gemstones, the volume of the basket and the lightness of the shank create balance and visual continuity.

The initial meeting serves to clarify the desire, gems, structure and feasibility of the project.
Personalised jewellery
Charlotte belongs to the archive of creations made in my workshop in Altamura. It is not a model to be reproduced, but a design reference that can suggest new possibilities. Each ring is developed through a dedicated process, in which gemstones, proportions and details are defined according to the person who will wear it.
From inspiration to design
Inspiration
The inspiration starts from the classic basket, reinterpreted through a custom-designed structure. The reference to the snowflake is not translated into a formal copy, but into a compositional principle based on rhythm, symmetry and uniqueness. The gemstones in tapered conical settings converse with one another while maintaining distinct identities and proportions, fulfilling the wish of someone who had been imagining this ring for a long time.
Materials and finishes
The creation is in 18-carat white gold with a natural yellow sapphire and natural white diamonds. The setting features a raised basket-inspired structure, designed to showcase the central stone and provide balanced support for the surrounding corona of gems. A bespoke internal engraving adds a private detail that complements the design without altering its essential nature.
Client experiences, in their own words
Every review reflects a real commission: the initial consultation, the listening process, the definition of the project, the anticipation and the moment the finished piece becomes part of the client’s life.
Certifications and registrations
Technical expertise, professional registrations and qualifications have accompanied the development of my work in the goldsmithing and jewellery field.

Personalised or narrative jewellery: two bespoke approaches
Would you like a bespoke piece of jewellery, but you’re not sure where to begin?
A ring can be born from a significant stone, a quest for light or a shape that you want to make personal. In my atelier in Altamura, I evaluate materials, proportions and design solutions with you to turn an idea into a creation built around the person who will wear it.
The initial meeting is to clarify desires, materials, structure, timelines, and feasibility. It doesn't require an immediate decision.
