My realm

Bespoke two-tone ring, hand-engraved with a burin and built around heirloom natural diamonds

The creation

This bespoke ring with diamonds develop a wide, two-tone and richly detailed band, in which white and rose gold build rhythm and depth. Family natural diamonds run through the central part in a symmetrical composition, while engravings, edges and setting details modulate the light.

It maintains a strong presence on the wrist, balanced by the continuous profile and controlled proportions.

Let us shape your new bespoke project

This archival creation can inspire a new ring, redesigned around the gemstones, proportions and style of the wearer.

I personally oversee every project, from the initial consultation to the final check in my workshop in Altamura.

Personalised jewellery

“Il mio Reame” belongs to my archive of completed works and documents a journey built on listening, trial and executive responsibility. It does not constitute a template to be reproduced: a new project is redesigned taking into account the person, the sizing, the proportions of the hand, the available materials, the intended use and the meaning entrusted to the piece of jewellery. In my atelier in Altamura I personally oversee every step.

From inspiration to design

Inspiration

The project came about through discussions with the client and a selection of images used to clarify the desired aesthetic: elegant, understated and rooted in the Italian tradition of goldsmithing. The starting point involved gold and diamonds inherited from her parents, to be reworked into a new form.

I translated these references into a recognisable two-colour structure, without relying on a predefined solution.

Materials and finishes

I developed the ring through 3D modelling and prototyping, so as to check heights, thicknesses and proportions on the finger prior to lost-wax casting. The 18-carat white and pink gold holds reclaimed natural diamonds, set in prong and flush settings. Hand-engraving in the Florentine style defines surfaces and edges; polishing and final inspection complete the visual balance and build quality.

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.

Provide my studio in Altamura with a reference, a gemstone or a metal to transform: we will evaluate proportions, feasibility and stylistic direction together.

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