IL GIARDINO DELL'ACERO ROSSO

Jewelry designer
5/5
1 review

Just a stone's throw from the port, this small, well-concealed boutique is a treasure trove... It's a workshop where Donatella houses her creations. One-of-a-kind pieces, which we look at just for the pleasure of our eyes, or rush to offer to our loved ones. From home decor to clothing to hand-painted fabrics in the "Batik" technique, everything is of the utmost finesse. Other small glass jewels (necklaces, earrings) are just as enchanting.

CREAZIONI ANTONELLO

Jewelry €€

The Sardinian filigree is the "golden thread" worn by the Phoenicians and worked as the most precious of embroideries. In this workshop, the starting point is a thorough research on archaeological materials and ancient ornaments, with their symbolic meanings, to end up designing unique jewels. Antonello manages to capture the light by shaping gold into spirals and lace. Rings, pendants and brooches are gathered in collections with dreamy names: Organza, Corbula, Soffioni... The result is surprisingly delicate.

The workshop is located on the first floor. You may have the chance to observe these craftsmen at work.

Meanwhile, on the first floor, the store welcomes customers who have come to purchase their subtle and exquisite works.
