Artistar Jewels

The Contemporary Jewel as Never Seen Before
2019
E-book

Artistar Jewels 2019 collects the contemporary jewellery’s beauty in 500 ironic wearable sculptures, sometimes nearly not wearable. Artistar Jewels offers, every year, an unprecedented reading on contemporary jewellery proposing the trends of recent years. The approach is original because the selection is not carried out starting from a topic chosen by the editors. Maximum is thus the freedom of expression to offer visitors a real insight into contemporary production in the field of body ornaments. Several are the techniques used - from lost wax, laser cutting, filigree, hand finishing, to 3D printing, which is increasingly used in this sector. The animal world with its thousand nuances, the exploration of the human body, the criticism of the social networks universe are among the most interesting themes. Gold, silver, titanium, leather, fabric, polymers, diamonds, quartzes, even meteorites, lichens and nanosital are among the materials chosen with strong, unpublished and refined combinations.
