MARCO
VALENTE DESIGN 2010 COLLECTION
Marco Valente has created his 2010 collection with distinct underlying
themes:
Classic: Here
the creative interpretation of the "classic jewelry" theme with creative use of gems and advanced application of
technology are blended together through traditional craftmanship into a unique piece of everyday jewelry. The rings are
flexible and soft while the creative and close setting of stones conveys an extreme sense of completeness and
luxury. The
bracelets are flexible, soft and their convex form portrays an incredible effect of volume with the minimum use of stones. The
easy to wear necklaces complete this collection of great portability and unbeatable value.
Rock: The creative and distinctive style of Marco Valente and his historic
use of colored combinations of white diamonds and colored sapphires and other gemstones is merged together in the Rock collection.
The bracelets and necklaces have a modern personality: coloured, curvy, wearable
and soft, with a very important component of emotional engineering which makes it a unique collection. The aim is
to introduce a different collection where it becomes easier to feel the beauty and the difference on a well known theme. Colours
are soft and every jewel piece not only conveys the discretion of the dégradé but also the care of the
labour behind its creation. All pieces are very light to be as comfortable to wear as possible. Stones are held
by custom designed very thin golden claws that emphasize the stones used. This high quality of manufacture and in
house construction of the collets creates a full stone effect where the jewel acquires more prominence and a unique elegance
from the almost infinite dégradé obtained. The shade of colored tones in bracelets and necklaces are never
flat nor predictable but frequently peaking in unexpected colours.
Papillon: Marco Valente has again cleverly anticipated jewelry fashion trends with the butterfly theme brought
together in a collection with imaginative combinations of mother of pearl, coloured diamonds and gemstones.
Particular
manufacturing techniques are used from personalized custom cut stones to the exact computer assisted precision cut of
the mother-of-pearl. Together these are then set to give a beautiful decorative, mobile and ethereal effect difficult
to replicate. The resulting mothers of pearl rings are an eccentric jewel to be admired. The other butterfly rings
use various setting combinations: a wing maybe pavé while the other may be a claw setting or gold. The resulting
strong contrast between the wings maximizes the artistic value and distinctiveness.
The precious
necklaces are perfect for ceremonies and for the lady who loves jewels, who recognizes and appreciates the beauty of
craftsmanship and style and who wants to distinguish herself through it. The handmade chains are specifically designed
for this collection, and they are all made of tourmalines and sapphires in different shades of pink.
The earrings
and the small rings are little luxuries which can always be worn in any occasion, both prêt-à-porter and
formal events. They have a comfortable touch and they enlighten the face enhancing complexion, eye and hair color.
Alliance: A collection of highly refined rings, designed for the highly cultured and discerning woman who
wants something precious and of clearly perceivable but affordable value. Each design has been carefully researched to create
softness and maximum comfort. Particular attention has been given to the hidden inside surfaces which are finished with either
enamel in various colors or set with stones for a stylish but secret luxury. One version is set half in white diamonds
and half in black diamonds in order to make it versatile as an evening or day jewel. Gold colour is white, yellow
or red and in harmony with the stone colors options of two particular types of rhodium plating which can make the jewel
nearly anthracite or bronze colour.
Ipanema: The collection has been designed to offer a wonderful easy to wear prêt-à-porter jewel
with a light and colored flavour thanks to both the semiprecious stones and the sapphires. Central stones have a multifaceted
pineapple cut creating a particular shine and brilliance. Colors are warm and subtle and understatedly refined. The cuts
are round and smooth edged creating a soft, encapsulating attractive and comfortable feeling to the touch. The
central stone is large, but not enormous extenuating the effect of volume without being excessive. Red or white gold
depending on variants, pavé or peroile setting on the side where diamonds are sprinkled.
All rings
are available to match earrings and pendant variants. All clasps are personalized and the jewels are set with multicolor
sapphires, brown diamonds, pink and green sapphires, blue sapphires, tsavorites, while aqua marine, prasiolite,
amethyst, light blue topaz, pink or smoked quartz are used for the central stones.
