JEWELERY ARCHITECTURE: PERUFFO'S 2018 COLLECTION

“There is geometry in the buzz of the strings, there is music in the spacing of the spheres”. Thus wrote Pythagoras, the ancient philosopher and Greek mathematician, for the precision from Samo, where he was born in about 580 BC. And these lines give shape to the Peruffo‘s jewelery collection for next year, designed by Venetian designer Marta Martino.

A minimal aesthetic meets the Brutalism inspirational art, the architectural current imposed in the 1950s as a overcoming of Modernism. Resembling Le Corbusier’s concept of design, today’s emblematic palaces are the Velasca Tower in Milan (1956-58), the Boston City Hall (1968) erected in the capital city of the state of Massachusetts and the Convent of Santa Maria de La Tourette in Éveux (France), conceived in 1959 by Le Corbusier.

The Square collection consists of darts, curved lines, hooks, rings identifying with metals such as yellow, pink and black gold, which in turn interact with perfect onyx glossy spheres. This is the design in the form of jewels given by Martino, for the company established in Vicenza, member of the Responsible Jewelery Council (RJC), “an organization with regulatory tasks set up to promote ethically, human, social and environmental rights throughout the diamond, gold and platinum chains”, as explained on its website.

Contemporary femininity emerges, attentive to trends but still rich in artistic and cultural stimuli. The lightness of the final object is balanced by an in-depth study of the structure, produced entirely in Italy. Looking at them, the jewels designed by Marta Martino for Peruffo, are miniature representations of the architectural world mentioned earlier, made to be worn, both in day and in the evening. Also from man. Versatile, therefore, well conceived.
