THE PLAYFUL SIDE OF JEWELS

The playful side of jewels- Since founding her eponymous jewellery label in 2008, Frances Wadsworth Jones has made a name for herself with her playfully conceptual and quietly provocative style.
 Her collections reveal a range of inspirations that are as eccentric as they are eclectic – from the minutiae of nature rendered in 18-carat gold, to pearl necklaces as portraiture. Preciousness, humour and an exceptional eye for detail combine to define the designer’s unpredictable yet unmistakable aesthetic.
 All of Frances Wadsworth Jones' collections are designed and hand crafted in London. Each piece is an attempt to turn expectations upside down and find comic relief in the serious world of fine jewellery.
 In 2016, Frances was awarded a place in Rock Vault, the prestigious initiative organised by the British Fashion Council and curated by Stephen Webster MBE to 'showcase and promote Britain's, most innovative fine jewellery talent'.

Il lato giocoso dei gioielli -Da quando ha fondato il suo brand di gioielli nel 2008, Frances Wadsworth Jones ha voluto che il suo nome rimandi ad uno stile giocosamente concettuale e provocatorio.
Le sue collezioni rivelano una serie di ispirazioni eccentriche quanto eclettiche: dalla minuziosità della natura resa in oro 18 carati, alle collane con perle come ritratti. La preziosità, l'umorismo e un occhio eccezionale per i dettagli si combinano per definire l'estetica imprevedibile ma inconfondibile della designer.
Tutte le collezioni di Frances Wadsworth Jones sono progettate e realizzate a mano a Londra. Ogni pezzo è un tentativo di trasformare le aspettative seriose associate al "gioiello" in un lato comico inaspettato.
Nel 2016, Frances ha ottenuto un posto nella Rock Vault, la prestigiosa iniziativa organizzata dal British Fashion Council e curata da Stephen Webster MBE per "mostrare e promuovere il talento della gioielleria nella Gran Bretagna più innovativa".

ROOM SERVICE-Co.Ro

Room 215:
During Altaroma, many new designers have had the opportunity to present their work at the Rome Marriott Grand Hotel Flora inside Room Service project curated by Simonetta Gianfelici. So the 15 rooms of the Rome Marriott Grand Hotel Flora become in small atelier to meet the designers and view the collections.
 In the 3th room I entered was exposed Co.Ro. collection.
Co.Ro are the initials of Collegio Romano, the school where the two designers Constanza De Cecco and Giulia Giannini met. The designers both come from the world of architecture, studied jewelery design at Academia di Moda e Costume. Often jewels inspired by architectures, buildings jewels, from mediterranean houses to ancient temples, up to industrial complexes, revisited with a twist of irony by playing with the principles of jump in scale and function. Handcrafted by Italian artisans, represent a harmonious fusion of rationalism and classical tradition. The composition method passes through a research focused on space, producing volumes and shapes that refer to geometries of structural forms enclosed in worlds of minimal dimensions.
