The creation

Piuma is a Engagement ring narrative in rose gold and white gold, characterised by an enveloping shape that recalls the gentle movement of a feather.

Shape the promise you wish to keep

This creation can inspire a new bespoke engagement ring, capable of transforming words, memories and personal symbols into a form that belongs solely to your story.

The initial meeting serves to understand the history, style, materials and production possibilities of the project.

Narrative jewel

In this creation, the feather becomes the symbol of a bond that has crossed the distance without losing its direction. It represents that which the wind can carry away but not scatter, that which continues to be recognised even when life imposes different paths. The promise takes shape precisely in this meeting between waiting, trust and a shared choice.

Piuma belongs to the archive of creations made in my workshop in Altamura. It is not a model to be reproduced, but a testimony to how a story can be translated into matter. Every new project stems from a different path, built through listening, research and dedicated design.

From inspiration to design

Inspiration

The inspiration stems from a poem written by the client. In their words, the beloved is imagined as a feather carried away by the wind, first by studies and then by professional life. The marriage proposal represents the moment when that presence, awaited and desired, finally finds a concrete form to cherish.

Materials and finishes

The creation is in rose gold and white gold and has been crafted entirely by hand in my workshop in Altamura. Sheet metal work, piercing and burin engraving build the texture that evokes the lightness of a feather, while the white gold profile follows the shape and enhances its movement.

Certifications and registrations

Technical expertise, professional registrations and qualifications have accompanied the development of my work in the goldsmithing and jewellery field.

Awards and recognition

Since 2009, I have guided private clients and couples through the creation of their jewellery in my atelier. Over thirty years of goldsmithing experience guide every stage: listening, design, workshop, quality control, and delivery. Awards, mentions, and accolades tell the story of the artisanal, technical, and creative journey that underpins my work. Each badge links to an in-depth article on the blog.

How is a piece of jewellery born?

A piece of jewellery can be inspired by a specific request or by a story worth cherishing. It is Custom when it starts with a shape, a stone, a material or a style to be crafted to measure. It becomes narrative When transforming a memory, symbol or personal passage into substance, proportion and meaning. Wedding rings, rings, pendants, necklaces and bracelets can follow both paths. In the Jewellery section, you can discover which one best suits your idea.

Do you want to start from a creation like this?

An engagement ring can be born from a poem, a shared memory or a symbol that belongs solely to your story. In the first meeting, I listen to the meaning you wish to tell and consider how to translate it into material, proportions and craftsmanship.

The initial meeting is to clarify desires, materials, structure, timelines, and feasibility. It doesn't require an immediate decision.
