Giulio Paolini La Decima Musa (The Tenth Muse), 2023 silver enamel necklace 10 square elements 3 x 3 cm and torque 14 cm ø Edition of 10 plus 2 AP Signed and numbered Make it Yours ♥ La Decima Musa (The Tenth Muse) by Giulio Paolini, consists in a necklace formed by a total of ten geometrical squares one of which represents the face of Sappho, a Greek lyric poet. Made in two variants, one in 18kt yellow gold and one in polished silver, both enameled in an edition of ten exemplars, plus two artist’s proof each medium.  Plato considered Sappho the best poetic voice in Greek history and called her “the tenth muse”. Here too the figure of Sappho is evoked, surrounded by the nine geometric images inscribed in the nine squares that allude to the nine Muses. The title Decima Musa also takes up a previous work of the artist, created in 1966.  In this context Sappho, the tenth muse, become a symbol of the artist’s internal source of inspiration, indicating that true creativity arises from the depths of one’s mind. It invites viewers to consider the role of the artist as a muse-like figure, generating new ideas and perspectives. Sappho […]

Sophia Vari Télémaque, late 90 Silver with black onyx ring 3.8 x 3.1 cm 2 AP plus edition of 6 Signed and numbered Make it Yours ♥ Sophia Vari’s “portable sculptures”, as she likes to call them, first became part of the artist’s body of work 30 years ago; at a time in her life when demanding international schedule kept her constantly on the move. While travelling, she carried with her a small box of plasticine, from which she would mould miniature sculptures. “From that day on, I had a new creative challenge that gave me a lot of joy because I could see the pieces being worn,” she recalls. Vari approaches wearable art in precisely the same manner and strength as her abstract sculptures, collages and paintings. Her thorough exploration of bold geometric forms, the examination of volume, painterly curves and lines result in the composition both peaceful and elegant but also captures a harmonious theatrical tension. “It is a real challenge for me, and it is very much like creating a sculpture, made to be worn. No doubt, the fact that I am a woman has its advantages. Firstly, because I can try it on me – and […]

Elsa Sarantidou The Whale Ring Silver, light blue sapphires, black rhodium plated ring Unique and initialed Make it Yours ♥ The WHALE ring captures one of nature’s most sacred and awe-inspiring bonds, that of a mother whale and her calf navigating the vast, mysterious ocean. Sculpted in darkened metal that swells and curves like deep underwater currents, the piece evokes the silent grace of these giants moving through their liquid world. The whales themselves are rendered in soft silver, detailed with shimmering blue sapphires that ripple like starlight reflected in ocean waves. The larger figure curves protectively around the smaller, a gesture of love, instinct, and endurance. an ancient dance passed down through generation. But this story is not without sorrow. Whales, once the rulers of quiet seas, now face a rising tide of threats: warming waters, ship strikes, plastic pollution, entanglement in fishing nets, and the deafening noise of sonar that drowns out their haunting, beautiful songs. This ring becomes more than a tribute. it is a lullaby and a warning. It reminds us of the fragile heartbeat of the ocean, carried in the bodies of those who have sung its songs for centuries. To wear WHALE is to […]

Tatsuo Miyajima Time Ring, 2009 18kt red gold with green L.E.D. 18kt yellow gold with blue L.E.D. 18kt white gold with white L.E.D. 4.3 x 3.9 x 3.9 cm – include two batteries Edition of 10 each color variation Signed and numbered Make it Yours ♥ Tatsuo Miyajima is one of Japan’s foremost sculptors and installation artists. His work has origins in the philosophy of Buddhism that conceives everything to be in continuous change, connected and lasting forever. The three leitmotivs are effectively expressed in his art through the recurrent reference to time in its perpetual flow. ‘My art relates to time and history, life and death, mind and soul and in particular to human existence. All good arts relate to thoughts about human existence.’ Tatsuo Miyajima Miyajima’s art is characterized by the combination of ever-changing numbers and digital light-emitting diodes (LED). Time Ring, the project in collaboration with Elisabetta Cipriani, perfectly encapsulates this binomial as well as the philosophy of his art. The rings, made in yellow, white or rose gold, present a LED digit display that works as a counter. Numbers are constantly flowing from 1 to 9 or vice versa representing the endless cycle of life. The […]

Giampaolo Babetto Anello, 1983 18kt yellow gold ring h 1.7 x 3 cm unique and signed Giampaolo Babetto’s work reflects contemporary art movements such as concrete art, minimal art, kinetic or pop art in a unique, purist and plastic manner. His pieces are immediately recognisable by its simple design. He is inspired by the architecture of his homeland, by Palladio’s villas, and by the geometries in which he finds poetry. His jewellery is innovative in concept. Made up of different abstract elements, broken down into modular units, or rendered moveable through the use of ingenious links, Babetto’s works are like small architectural pieces or small sculptures. Babetto prefers working in gold due to its stable malleability and its warm sheen which he combines with unconventional materials such as plastic or glass, ebony, dusting the internal surface with a velvet-like pigment in luminous primary colours of reds or blues or using enamel and age-old niello-based techniques. These materials are used as highlights and contrasts in works of increasingly pure and essential geometrical forms that have come to characterise the Padua School.  

Sophia Vari Zervodexos, 2022 Amaranth wood and yellow gold ring 3.5 x 10cm edition of 6 plus 1 AP signed and numbered A joyful and comic dance, performed at festivals in the spring, Zervodexos got its name from the way the dancers move to the left (zerva) and the right (dexia). The changes in direction occur when the lyra-player produces a specific high note The new body of works are once again breath taking in strength and creativity. Abstraction is refined to the hummed mantra of “Beauty and Harmony” where bold geometric forms are accentuated by colour coming from unconventional mediums. They are sculptures that become wearable with the force of a poetic statement. New materials such as amaranth wood and resin appeared in front of her by surprise. Vari was looking for something distinctive and by chance, when looking at the different colours of wood, she discovered the beautiful exotic amaranth wood. What is special about this wood, is that it is green in colour and then in contact with the sun, it transforms and stabilises into pink/purple.This new colour naturally redefines certain forms that the artist perceives differently with the other woods previously used.

This piece harks back to ancient practices of wearing talismans, imbuing it with a sense of protection and connection to the earth. The collection is an homage to “The Botanic Age”—a time long before the Stone Age, when plants and trees were central to human development and creativity. Dr. Dean Falk’s research at Florida State University positions this era as the true cradle of civilisation, where botanic inventions like woven baskets shaped our cognitive and cultural evolution long before we wielded stone tools. Drawn from Oka Doner’s profound connection to the natural world and human history, her designs serve as spiritual meditations of this era, reflecting a time when humans were stewards of the earth rather than its masters. Her message resonates powerfully in today’s world as we face […]
