In September 2024, the prestigious Italian jewelry brand Buccellati will unveil its "Weaving Light and Reviving Classics" high-end jewelry brand exquisite collection exhibition in Shanghai on September 10th. This exhibition will showcase the signature works presented at the "Homage to the Prince of Goldsmiths and Revival of Classic Masterpieces" timeless fashion show, while showcasing Buccellati's distinctive style and celebrating its century-old goldsmithing techniques and endless inspiration.
Since its establishment in 1919, Buccellati has always adhered to the jewelry carving techniques originating from the Italian Renaissance, with outstanding designs, excellent handicraft skills, and unique aesthetic concepts, winning the favor of jewelry lovers around the world. This exclusive high-end jewelry masterpiece appreciation event continues the timeless style exhibition held in Venice this year, "Homage to the Prince of Goldsmiths: Reviving Classic Masterpieces": by displaying the exquisite jewelry masterpieces designed by the generations of family inheritors, it traces the precious value of classic masterpieces and interprets the eternal beauty of the brand essence.
The exhibition hall design features the brand's signature blue, continuing the Italian aesthetics of Buccellati while creating an immersive experience. Premium masterpieces are displayed around the central area, allowing guests to admire their dazzling brilliance as they stroll through, and they can also take a break in the central area. The LED screens in the display area showcase video clips of the brand's classic craftsmanship, fully restoring the process of creating timeless masterpieces. The exhibition hall also features a VIP space, providing guests with a warm and private experience for trying on jewelry, allowing them to appreciate the timeless elegance of Buccellati up close.
In 1936, Italian poet Gabriele D'Annunzio bestowed the title of "Prince of Goldsmiths" upon Mario Buccellati, in recognition of his passion for traditional goldsmithing techniques and the exquisite pieces he created. Among his designs was the classic Umbilical series, which was elegant and fluid, and was also given as a gift to a beloved by D'Annunzio. To honor Buccellati's century-old aesthetic legacy, the third-generation family member Andrea Buccellati has launched the new Ombelicali High Jewelry Necklace Collection. All of the pieces in the collection are long necklaces, with emeralds and gold, white gold, and diamonds intertwined, and a pendant at the end that falls perfectly at the navel position, hence the name "Ombelicali" (Italian for "belly button").
The purple necklace features a cup-shaped element made of Rigato-patterned gold sheet, paired with pave-set diamonds and purple jade, showcasing a dazzling luster; the green necklace is composed of emerald elements set in gold bezels, intertwined with white gold glacial deposits, and skillfully conveying the brand's inherited century-old aesthetic essence.
Gianmaria Buccellati, the second-generation heir to the brand, inherited Mario's creativity: he created the precious Cocktail collection not only to celebrate the brand's anniversary in the American market, but also to showcase the brand's craftsmanship heritage. The Cocktail collection high jewelry earrings are made of white gold and feature two pear-shaped pearls (total weight of 91.34 carats) and 254 round brilliant-cut diamonds (total weight of 10.47 carats), adding a dazzling charm to the luster.
Compared to Gianmaria, Andrea Buccellati's design style is more geometric and graphic. To celebrate the brand's 100th anniversary, Buccellati launched the "Buccellati Cut" Buccellati diamond cut. The Buccellati Cut high jewelry necklace features the brand's signature Tulle "tulle" technique, adorned with a white gold and diamond halo border. The necklace can also be removed and used as a brooch. The white gold leaf structure connects the necklace and brooch, and the brooch features a lace-like white gold piece in the center, set with a "Buccellati Cut" Buccellati diamond cut with 57 facets, giving the piece a light and unique texture like lace.
Andrea's daughter Lucrezia Buccellati, who is also the fourth generation inheritor of the brand, serves as the brand's only female designer. She incorporates her unique female perspective into her jewelry designs, creating pieces that are convenient for women to wear. The Romanza series, designed by Lucrezia, draws inspiration from female protagonists in literary works. The Carlotta high jewelry bracelet is made of platinum and features 129 round brilliant-cut diamonds (totaling 5.67 carats) in a simple and elegant design that captivates the viewer at first glance.
