Antica Roma Collection

ciondolo artigianale in bronzo e travertino

The Antica Roma collection brings to life the atmosphere, icons, and symbols of ancient Imperial Rome.

Imagine holding a piece of history: a fragment of a marble mosaic, or a coin that has withstood the test of time.

Pendants, rings, earrings, and bracelets are expertly handcrafted using the lost wax casting technique. Each piece is made from bronze, the original material used for jewelry in Roman times, which acquires an authentic antique effect through the natural oxidation of the metal.

A refined piece of jewelry, reflecting high-quality craftsmanship and rooted in history, ideal for wearing and perfect for gifting.

 

The collection was exhibited at the bookshop of the archaeological area of ​​the ancient Domitian Stadium, today’s Piazza Navona, and subsequently proposed in the bookshop of the Scuderie del Quirinale, on the occasion of the exhibition dedicated to Raffaello Sanzio.

Infinity

gioiello in mosaico con maschera teatrale

The Infinity collection originates from a collaboration between the goldsmith Ivan Barbato and the mosaicist Fabio Bordi, and proposes the theme of ancient Rome.

The union between these two ancient decorative arts is suggestive.

These jewels made of bronze, adorned with marble tiles and Venetian enamels, seem to belong to an ancient past.

The star of this collection is the classic medallion-shaped pendant.

The ornamental motif in the center is made of bronze, coral or lava stone, while the decorations at the edges are made up of micro mosaic fragments.

At the customer’s request, the models in this collection can also be made with precious materials such as noble metals, gems and ancient marbles.

The collection bears the signature of the two artisans and the symbol of infinity refers to Rome, the Eternal City.

YOUNG NEPTUNE pendant

Ciondolo in oro giallo con Opale Boulder

The yellow gold pendant, modeled from wax directly on the irregular shape of the boulder opal is clearly a unique piece that depicts a young hybrid body, half human, almost an elf who shelters his head from the sun with a giant leaf, half fish with a tail reminiscent of sea sirens or rather a young merman.
A meticulous burin engraving pleasant contrasts on the surface of the metal, further enhancing the innumerable reflections of the opal.
A small pendant that contains a particular craftsmanship.

PENDANT WITH SALMANDER IN SILVER 925 AND YELLOW GOLD 18 KT WITH MINERAL (VESUVIAN STONE)

PENDANT WITH SALMANDER IN SILVER 925 AND YELLOW GOLD 18 KT WITH MINERAL (VESUVIAN STONE)

SALAMANDER

Making jewels with minerals means giving life to something unique every time, the bright colors, the reflections of the crystals, everything takes on a particular charm, a unique suggestion that is given to us by the wonder of our planet. This pendant is made with a mineral called Vesuvian stone, contrary to what its name might suggest, in this case, it does not derive from the Campania region but rather from the Ligurian mountains. I wanted to leave all its beauty visible in that green that emerges from the rock , so I dedicated my work to the most hidden part, the back of the mineral. A Salamander in burnished silver with speckles in yellow gold and eyes in cognac diamonds clings to the mineral as if it wanted to protrude, the graceful amphibian as well as being the applied ornament acts as a structure itself that embeds the mineral, through its head it is possible insert a small yellow gold chain, which allows it to be worn. The result is a piece without equal; since the small animal has been modeled on the irregular shapes of the mineral, it is truly a one-of-a-kind jewel.

THE HEART OF NATURE

Ciondolo in oro giallo con turchese, il pendente è double face e unico in ogni suo dettaglio... - Mediterraneo Liberty-
Pendant in yellow gold with turquoise, the pendant is double-faced and unique in every detail

THE HEART OF NATURE

The jewel is a tribute to nature, in its forms, among its elements…
A young elf in yellow gold plays an ancient tuba, immersed in a heart of blue turquoise that creates the bridge between the water element and the earth element, he himself has hybrid features that in the lower part resemble a marine creature and then culminate with a graceful headdress of hers that connects an earthly one to one side.
The intense blue of the mineral evokes the sea but the reference to flowers is then well marked, the pendant has in fact a double aspect that allows it to be worn on both sides, as if to delight the owner of being able to have two jewels in one.
While on one side the yellow gold leprechaun is visible playing, almost cradled by a sea wave, on the other there is a set of flowers delicately engraved in bas-relief on the mineral itself, alternating with these stand out gold leaves that derive from a small branch, the same branch that gradually turns into the elf’s headdress on the other side of the jewel.
The small hybrid body symbolically combines two dominant elements of nature, all enclosed in the shape of a heart, just as the heart symbolizes the union and love between two people…

Imperial silver hair clip

pettine fermacapelli- in argento 925 - premio 2017 Maestri del Gioiello - Liberty

I wanted to create an object from another era, something that could stand out from the pieces typically made in jewelry, something that could be worn during the time of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria, just as it can be worn today.

The jewelry piece was inspired by one of the most characteristic aesthetic details of the 18th century:

“Hairstyles.”

Both men and women of that era paid great attention to their appearance and clothing. It was the century of a new, distinctive, and unmistakable fashion: faces were brightened with powder, silk stockings were worn, shoes with buckles, but above all, wigs were used to create often extravagant hairstyles.

For some women, hairpins and hair accessories were everyday objects, and when transformed into jewelry, they could be worthy of an empress…

Technical description:

Made of 925/1000 silver, with enamels and freshwater pearl, the jewelry piece was handcrafted by modeling wax. After shaping the form in wax, it was cast in metal using the lost-wax microfusion process, then finished, polished, and enameled.

panther earrings

orecchini con pantere - oro bianco, corallo pelle d'angelo e diamanti fancy- rinascimentale fiorentino

This is a typical combination of different techniques used by the goldsmith, combining a first modeling made on wax to obtain the face of the panther, subsequently obtained in metal by lost wax casting and, working the same with the fretwork technique, obtaining a small tulle .
In fact, the panther’s cheeks and forehead contain, in a delicate harmony, the tulle, a satin finish obtained by a burin and the light of the diamonds placed in the eyes, together with the fancy ones that adorn the head; from here then winds the soft color dictated by the Angelo Skin coral which gives further refinement to the earrings.
