Do you have any gemstones to feature in a new creation?

Existing gems can also become the starting point for a new bespoke creation, designed in relation to the person, their proportions, and the way it will be worn.

The first meeting is dedicated to evaluating the design, technical and aesthetic possibilities of your path.

Personalised jewellery

Onde blu is part of the archive of creations made in my atelier. It does not represent a model to be reproduced, but rather the testimony of a design path built around specific requirements, gems and proportions.

Every new work stems from dedicated listening and takes shape through different choices, guided by the individual, the available materials and the desired result.

From inspiration to design

Inspiration

This project stems from the desire to give a new form to gemstones already belonging to the client. Starting from some reference images and a direct discussion on aesthetic expectations, I developed a design proposal in my Altamura workshop capable of enhancing the existing material through a personal language.

The entire journey was guided by the balance between aesthetics, wearability and proportions, so that every choice found a coherent relationship with the hand and the identity of the person for whom the creation was intended.

Materials and finishes

The creation is crafted in 18-carat white gold with marquise-cut blue sapphires and declared Amsterdam-cut white and pink diamonds. Prior to production, a 3D design and prototyping phase was carried out to evaluate volumes, gemstone proportions, and overall presence on the hand.

The definitive form was achieved through the lost-wax casting technique, a step that allowed the design to be precisely transferred into the material while maintaining the proportions defined during development, and the setting that made every single gemstone a place of light and magic.

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?

We can evaluate materials, proportions, style and wearability together to develop a project consistent with what you want to create.

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