Francesca Furzi jewels
Jewels, fashion and motors
Jewels made of white, pink or yellow gold, decorated with diamonds and brilliants, in limited edition, styled with lines that recall motors, fashion and other worlds: these are the characteristics of the jewels’ collection ideated by Francesca Furzi, who aims at eternity with her creations. The search for the beautiful is handed down from the most antique civilizations to us. The concept of jewel has in fact come to us from ancient times.
The philosophy of the Tuscanian designer it to catch the essence of eternity and give to it expression in every creation of hers. Each jewel is the result of a research influences by the art of sculpture, by the concreteness of the technical design, by the harmony of cars’ shapes, by trends, and also by history and other cultures.
Each piece of the collection made in Italy is numbered. The jewels are made even more precious by the presence of brilliants and state-of-the-art diamonds. The designer personally checks every creation to make sure that the message entrusted to each piece is spread about every time light hits the jewel, thus guaranteeing authenticity and uniqueness to each of her works of art.
The collection is made of rings and earrings. Francesca Furzi’s rings feature concrete lines, harmonious and neat at the same time, aimed at enhance the visibility of the diamond. The earrings represent the completion of a proper journey made of lights and brightness.
The artist, industrial designer, Francesca Furzi, was born in Tuscany, artistically raised in Rome and then professionally grown while working for important design Studios of well known brands of the automotive sector.
She now lives in Turin and her first collection is the result of her life journey, including her studies and experiences that now characterize her very style. Her passion for jewels stemmed out of the little birth place, on the slopes of Monte Amiata, where she was fascinated by the precious antiques belonging to the family, created by expert goldsmiths at the end of the eighteen hundred. Once moved to Rome, cradle of art and history, she decided to start studying the arts, to eventually graduate in industrial design. She then moved to Milan and later on to Turin where she started working at the most important style companies, and she later specialized in automobile design. Art and techniques: a happy encounter opens up to new and unforeseeable solutions.
In the fashion capital Francesca is more and more influenced by the metropolitan aspects of the city: constant search for new trands, how to give a new and personal touch to the most actual trends and how to anticipate future ones. In the automotive sector, with Alfa Romeo, she refines her aesthetic capabilities linked to modernity and luxury.
The passion for jewels though never abandoned her. She then decides to start a new significant experience, aimed at satisfying that passion that she had been cultivating since very young. She moves to Bassano del Grappa to work for an important gold company that allows her to learn not only to design, but also to create a jewel. This is the turning point of her professional growth. It is on this occasion that she’ll draw the first drafts of what will later become the jewels of her very first collection.
She then returned to Milan and then again to Turin, the city of automobiles, working for the style department of Lancia, dedicating entire nights to perfection the lines of her beloved jewels.
Today her lines eventually come into being in her very first collection.
Inspired by Buddhist architecture, Pagoda is a ring in which concave surfaces intricately alternate, illuminated by diamonds that seem to slip along sinuous lines. Intense glares culminated into the central stone. The ascending shape is pointed upwards. In the Unione ring, two identical-complementary shapes embrace, as in real life, compensating one another. Result of an everlasting embrace, the central diamond seems to be a seal uniting the two shapes. Inspired by the technical and functional worlds of design in the automotive sector are the Giro ring and the Parentesi earrings, featuring essential lines and external brushed surfaces opposed to the internal polished ones.
Pearl, symbol of purity, almost seems to be pending in Equilibrio, characterized by a mirrored surface and another enriched by the diamonds pave. Two opposed surfaces, one featuring white diamonds pave, the other featuring black diamonds pave, characterize Bilancia, whereas Nodo features angles resulting from a harmonious design atop of which the diamond is placed. Goccia is inspired by water and recalls the past, featuring an asymmetrically set diamond. Abbraccio looks back at tradition, featuring snake shapes, whereas Intreccio is characterized by dynamic ones. Clip recalls the shape of shirts’ cuffs, with the button made of a diamond. Padaung is inspired by the homonym tribe in which women embellish their necks with rings since very young ages so to make it longer.
