THE BLUE CHALCEDONY

It is a variety of microcrystalline quartz that stands out for its delicate and milky blue hue. Its colors range from a very light and soft blue to more intense shades, giving a sense of calm and serenity. The main sources of extraction are found in the United States, Brazil and Namibia. Blue Chalcedony is said to promote inner balance and stimulate harmonious communication, relieving tension and promoting confidence in one's words.

Marion Aquamarine

Aquamarine Margot Choker

"Blue is my color, the one that gives me peace when I am restless." - Dacia Maraini

The beating heart of Silvia Kelly's Marion choker is an extraordinary 24.5-carat aquamarine. Unlike traditional faceted cuts, the oval cabochon cut chosen for this gem enhances its translucency and rich color, offering a profound vision reminiscent of the clearest seabed. An aquamarine of this size is a rare find: its internal structure, free of inclusions visible to the naked eye, allows light to penetrate and diffuse gently, creating a "glow" effect that illuminates the entire décolleté. Wearing the Marion model means carrying the calming energy of the sea within, enclosed in a gem that is a true investment in beauty and value. Supporting and enhancing a nearly twenty-five-carat aquamarine requires an exceptionally solid gold structure and refined design. Our workshop created an 18kt rose and white gold setting for the Marion pendant that embraces the stone with confidence and elegance. Rose gold lends an enveloping warmth that contrasts beautifully with the ethereal blue of the aquamarine, while white gold accents serve as a backdrop for the brilliant-cut diamonds (0.08 carats). These small points of light are strategically placed to draw the eye to the majesty of the central gem, adding a touch of classic sparkle to a resolutely contemporary piece. For those who love to coordinate their highlights, this choker pairs beautifully with the Margot Ring, creating a chromatic reminder between the different shades of this magnificent marine stone, while each maintaining its own design identity. At our goldsmith's workshop in Lecco, established in 1970, we specialize in showcasing large colored stones. The Marion choker demonstrates how our all-female management team combines the strength of a majestic gem like the aquamarine with the delicacy of Made in Italy craftsmanship. As an independent goldsmith's workshop, we offer our clients the option of customizing each creation or setting their own gems with the same care dedicated to this exceptional piece. We invite you to our atelier on Lake Como to admire the depth of this aquamarine, a masterpiece of nature and craftsmanship that represents the essence of Silvia Kelly's elegance.

THE GREEN JADE

Jadeite is considered the true jade, more precious than nephrite because it has a much brighter green color and greater translucency. It is always been considered a royal gem in China. In fact, in Chinese Yu is used to indicate something precious – the equivalent of golden. Jadeite jade comes from Myanmar. It is said that it brings abundance, prosperity, serenity, wisdom, longevity. For thousands of years, jade has been the symbol of love and virtue.

Monete Marco Aurelio

silviakelly — Wed, 20 Oct 2021 11:44:20 +0000

Monete Marco Aurelio Choker

My name is Massimo Decimo Meridio, commander of the Northern Army, general of the Felix legions, loyal servant of the only true Emperor Marco Aurelio. Father of a murdered son, husband of a killed wife... And I will have my revenge, in this life or another. (Quote from the film "Gladiator")

Silvia Kelly's Marco Aurelio Monete Choker is not just an accessory, but a fragment of Roman history set in gold. At the heart of this creation beats the heart of antiquity: a faithful artistic reproduction depicting the profile of Marcus Aurelius, the philosopher-emperor par excellence. Wearing the effigy of Marcus Aurelius means celebrating the values of wisdom, inner strength, and nobility of spirit that characterized his reign. If you're fascinated by the combination of numismatics and fine goldsmithing, we invite you to explore the entire monete collection on our website, where each piece tells the story of a different era through the precious metal. To highlight the imposing figure of Marcus Aurelius, our workshop designed a sculptural setting in 18kt gold that plays on the contrasting two-tones. Rose gold surrounds the coin, evoking the warm, antique tones of bronze or vintage gold, while the white gold details of the chain and frame add a modern, refined touch. This two-tone frame is designed to protect the coin without obscuring its minting details, allowing every line of Marcus Aurelius's profile to be admired. Each choker is hand-finished, ensuring a perfect fit and the construction quality typical of the finest Made in Italy. Since 1970, our goldsmith's workshop in Lecco has specialized in setting historical coins and precious stones. The Marcus Aurelius choker perfectly embodies our philosophy: honoring the past through contemporary goldsmithing techniques. As an artisan workshop, we offer a dedicated service to those who own family coins and wish to transform them into a unique, wearable piece of jewelry. We look forward to seeing you at our jewelry store on Lake Como to experience the texture of this choker and discover how our all-female passion breathes new life into the symbols of the Roman Empire, always guaranteeing the authenticity and exclusivity of the Silvia Kelly signature.

Noemi Tanzanite

Noemi Tanzanite Choker

"Blue awakens simple hearts without falsehoods." – Boys Be

The hypnotic allure of tanzanite: a gem of a thousand reflections In the world of fine jewelry, tanzanite holds a place of absolute prestige thanks to its geological rarity and unique color. Mined in only one place in the world, in Tanzania, Africa, this gem enchants with its pleochroism: the ability to display different shades depending on the light, ranging from deep blue to intense purple, even touches of burgundy. In Silvia Kelly's Noemi Choker, tanzanite is the protagonist of a design that enhances this very chromatic variability. Choosing a piece of jewelry featuring this stone means wearing a unique piece of natural history, dedicated to a woman who seeks discreet luxury yet immense symbolic and visual value. The Noemi design: an architecture of light in two-tone gold The construction of the Noemi Choker was designed to allow tanzanite to express its full potential of brilliance. The handcrafted 18kt white and rose gold setting envelops the stone in a structure that elevates its profile, allowing the sun's rays to shine through its facets from every angle. White gold was chosen to frame the gem and reflect its clarity, while rose gold details add a touch of warmth that makes the piece harmonious and modern. In this creation, tanzanite is not simply set, but celebrated as the center of a system of reflections where each metallic element serves as a mirror for its deep blue-violet hues. Over 50 years of craftsmanship in Lecco Crafting a precious and delicate stone like tanzanite requires technical expertise that only decades of experience at the goldsmith's bench can guarantee. At our artisan workshop in Lecco, each Noemi choker is entirely handmade, following the highest Made in Italy standards. With over half a century of experience behind her, Silvia Kelly devotes meticulous care to selecting each individual tanzanite, ensuring its clarity and cut are worthy of a jewel destined to last. Our creative workshop allows us to offer a unique piece, where the wisdom of tradition meets the rarity of a legendary gem. We invite you to our atelier on Lake Como to be captivated by the reflections of tanzanite, a wearable emotion that speaks to the excellence of Italian goldsmithing.

Giuditta Rubies

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:08 +0000

THE RUBY

The origin of the name comes from its color, from the Latin rubeus which means red. In fact, the ruby is the red variety of the corinth, a mineral class that also includes sapphire. It is one of the rarest gemstones and historically the most sought after are those from the Mogok region, in Burma (now Myanmar). Several ruby deposits are also found in East Africa. Ruby is considered the stone of passionate love. It has mysterious powers that help against sadness. If you keep it under your pillow, it will improve your sleep and relaxation.

THE WHITE AND BLACK AGATE

The name Agate comes from the Achates River in Sicily, now called Dirillo. The Agate has been a popular gem since ancient times, both for its beauty and its hardness. It is used as a precious stone, as a seal and as a cameo. One of the most famous deposits is the Idar-Oberstein, where the agate has been collected since 1548. It is said to be a protection against negative influences and it helps to identify the targets to be achieved.

"Blue awakens simple hearts without falsehoods." – Boys Be

The hypnotic allure of Blue Topaz: a gem of pure freshness In the world of fine jewelry, few gems capture the essence of light like blue topaz. Silvia Kelly's Carlotta Choker was created to celebrate this extraordinary stone, chosen for its ability to reflect hues ranging from the clear blue of the sky to the deep reflections of the sea.

Craftsmanship of Excellence: 18kt Gold and the Handmade Jewelry Collection Each Carlotta Choker is the result of meticulous artisanal jewelry production, carried out entirely in our Lecco workshop. The 18kt gold setting was designed to be both invisible and present: it securely holds the gemstone yet allows light to pass through it completely, enhancing the cut and brilliance of the blue topaz. This attention to detail is the hallmark of gold jewelry crafted in Italy, where technique is never an end in itself but rather serves to give voice to the raw material. If you're looking to create a uniquely captivating set, this choker pairs perfectly with the London Blue Topaz Bracelet, creating a handmade jewelry collection that represents the pinnacle of Silvia Kelly style.

Matilde Tanzanite

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:09 +0000

Matilde Tanzanite Choker

The word blue color comes from the French archaic bleu,"the color of light", used to refer to the sky ... just like in Domenico Modugno's song.

The Rarity of Tanzanite: A Gemstone More Unique Than Diamond The Matilde Choker celebrates one of the most fascinating and rare gems discovered in the last century: tanzanite. Mined exclusively in a small area at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, this tanzanite gemstone is known for its pleochroism, or its ability to display shades of blue, purple, and burgundy depending on the light. Many customers ask: which is better, tanzanite or diamond? If diamond is the symbol of eternity, sapphire is the symbol of absolute exclusivity, being a thousand times rarer. When comparing tanzanite vs. sapphire, the former wins for the vividness of its purple reflections, which give the Matilde Choker a magnetic depth, perfect for those seeking fine tanzanite jewelry that stands out for its character and rarity. Matilde Design: Fine Jewelry Meets Italian Gold The necklace, crafted entirely from 18kt gold, exemplifies how Italian gold jewelry can enhance the natural beauty of stones. The Matilde design envelops the stone in a lightweight yet secure setting, allowing the gem to "float" on the décolleté, capturing every ray of sunlight. This piece is part of our fine jewelry selection, designed for a woman who doesn't settle for the familiar. For an unparalleled ensemble, the choker pairs perfectly with the Costanza Ring, creating a chromatic accent that elevates the entire outfit. The combination of these pieces with tanzanite embodies the quintessential Silvia Kelly style: balance, color, and artisanal perfection. Craftsmanship in Lecco: Where to Buy Designer Tanzanite Choosing a Silvia Kelly piece means entering a creative workshop where handcrafted jewelry has been a mission for over 50 years. Many wonder where to purchase this high-quality gemstone in Italy: in our Lecco workshop, we personally select each gemstone to ensure it possesses the saturation and clarity required for high-end Italian gold jewelry. Each choker is unique, crafted with the care that only truly handmade jewelry can guarantee. Wearing the Matilde choker means carrying a piece of African land forged by the skill of Italian goldsmiths, an investment in beauty that shines with a unique light.

Fiona Orange Coral

Fiona Orange Coral Choker

"Coral has the beauty of a rose, the color of blood, the clearness of the crystal, the heat of the fire." - Vittorio G. Rossi, 1973

The Allure of Orange Coral: A Gem That Vibrants with the Sun Orange coral is one of nature's most radiant treasures, an organic material that embodies the energy of the sea and the vibrancy of Mediterranean colors. In Silvia Kelly's Fiona Choker, this gem becomes the focal point of a design designed to illuminate the décolleté with disarming ease. Unlike classic red, orange coral offers fresher, more modern hues, capable of adapting beautifully to both a summer look and a winter outfit that requires a touch of warmth. Choosing an orange coral piece means carrying a symbol of vitality, reinterpreted through the refined aesthetic of our handmade jewelry. Fiona Design: The Essence of Handmade Jewelry on Lake Como The structure of the Fiona model is designed to celebrate the material. 18kt yellow gold envelops the orange coral in soft lines, typical of the handcrafted jewelry created in our atelier. Each piece is entirely handmade in Lecco, inspired by the unique light reflecting on the waters of Lake Como. This creation is not a simple accessory, but the result of artisanal jewelry production that rejects industrial mass production to embrace the perfect imperfection of the handmade. The care taken in selecting each fragment of orange coral ensures that each necklace has its own personality, making it a unique piece of fine artisanal jewelry. An authentic experience: between our workshop and Valsassina We always invite those who fall in love with our creations to discover the place where they are born. Visiting our artisan workshop in Lecco allows you to understand what it truly means to create artisanal jewelry: it's a journey through historic tools, drawings on paper, and the scent of metal worked on the bench. After choosing your orange coral choker, we suggest completing the day with an immersion in our region, perhaps climbing towards the Valsassina pastures or strolling along the lakeside. The connection between Italian gold and the beauty of our mountains is what makes our handcrafted Italian jewelry so special and rooted in local tradition. Your Custom Jewelry: Sartorial Creativity in Italian Gold In our atelier, handmade jewelry also means listening and personalization.

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:09 +0000

Amina Pearls Choker Amina is the female form of Amin, "person who tells the truth". Genuine, loyal, reliable: just like gold The Eternal Allure of Pearls: Symbolism and Natural Light For millennia, pearls have been the undisputed symbol of undying refinement. In Silvia Kelly's Amina Choker, these oceanic gems take center stage in a contemporary design, far removed from traditional threads yet imbued with the same magnetic radiance. The true value of pearls is often questioned: their beauty lies in the Orient, that magical play of refractions that occurs on the surface of their mother-of-pearl trail. Choosing a piece of jewelry with natural cultured pearls means investing in an accessory that emanates a warm, vibrant light, capable of adapting to every skin tone and instantly elevating any outfit, from the most formal to the most everyday.

Designer Craftsmanship: Italian Gold and Quality Pearls Wearing a Silvia Kelly creation means embracing the prestige of Italian gold jewelry. For over half a century, in our atelier, we have been transforming Italian gold into settings that are true works of art. Many customers wonder how to care for their pearls to prevent them from losing their luster: the secret of high-quality handmade jewelry also lies in maintenance. As organic gems, pearls love contact with the skin but fear perfumes and chemicals; cleaning them with a soft cloth after use is the best way to preserve their radiant soul for generations. This attention to detail is what distinguishes genuine Italian gold jewelry brands from mass-produced ones. Where to Buy Gold Jewelry in Italy: The Informed Choice In an age of mass production, knowing where to buy gold jewelry in Italy that retains its authentic soul is crucial.

Vera-Olimpia Diamonds

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:31 +0000

Vera-Olimpia Diamonds Choker

It is said that the god of mines once gathered together all the precious stones at his disposal to create the first diamond. It is in fact colorless, but when exposed to the light it reveals the colors of all the stones therein.

The Allure of Diamonds: The Ultimate Expression of Handcrafted Luxury In the world of jewelry, diamonds represent the pinnacle of splendor and durability. The Vera Olimpia Choker by Silvia Kelly was designed for those seeking uncompromising brilliance: a succession of sparkling points set with pinpoint precision in 18kt gold. Questions about diamond jewelry prices are often raised, but the true value of a creation like this lies in the selection of stones: each diamond is chosen for its purity and ability to refract light, transforming a necklace into a thread of white fire around the neck. This creation perfectly embodies the concept of luxury jewelry, where precious raw materials meet a design that enhances every single facet. Vera Design: The Excellence of Italian Handcrafted Jewelry The strength of the Olimpia model lies in its visual rhythm. Each circular element housing the diamonds is hand-finished in our atelier in Lecco on Lake Como, following the canons of the finest handcrafted jewelry design. Unlike industrial production, our fine artisanal jewelry focuses on harmonious proportions: the Vera Olimpia choker is part of the Vera Collection, a line that celebrates the continuity of light. For those who wish to explore a variation with a different spacing of the sparkles, the Vera Oriana choker offers an equally precious interpretation but with a different aesthetic, demonstrating the versatility of our Italian gold jewelry production. Craftsmanship in Lecco: Handmade Artisan Jewelry Choosing Silvia Kelly means embracing the philosophy of handcrafted jewelry. For over fifty years, we have been transforming Italian gold into timeless settings.

Vera-Oriana Diamonds

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:09 +0000

Vera-Oriana Diamonds Choker

The Allure of Diamonds: A Shower of Light on a Gold Structure The Vera Oriana Choker is one of the most sophisticated expressions of Silvia Kelly's fine jewelry. In this creation, the purest diamonds are not only juxtaposed, but are also enhanced by an 18kt gold setting that elegantly marks their rhythm. Often, when analyzing the prices of diamond jewelry, we forget that the value of a handcrafted piece also lies in the complexity of its link: in the Oriana, each point of light is interspersed with handcrafted gold elements, giving the piece a unique presence and an impeccable fit on the décolleté. It is the ideal choice for those seeking luxury jewelry that combines the eternal brilliance of stones with a distinctive goldsmith design. Design and Structure: The Soul of the Vera Collection on Lake Como The distinctive feature of the Oriana model lies in its structured chain, which differentiates it from other variations in the Vera Collection. While other styles emphasize the lightness of gold thread, the Oriana features a more technical and visible link, transforming the choker into a piece of handcrafted jewelry design. Both styles belong to the same Vera Collection, but the Oriana is designed for those who love the feel of gold against their skin. If you prefer a version where the setting disappears to reveal an even more intense dance of light, the Vera Natalia Choker is the perfect alternative, also born from our excellence in handcrafted jewelry production on Lake Como. Made in Italy Excellence: Handmade Artisan Jewelry The beauty of the Vera Oriana Choker lies in its entirely handcrafted construction. Silvia Kelly is one of the Italian gold jewelry brands that has successfully maintained the tradition of the historic workshop, where each link is assembled with meticulous attention to detail. The precision of the diamond settings and the mirror-like finish of the Italian gold make this piece a masterful example of Italian artisanal jewelry. For those seeking to purchase gold jewelry in Italy, the fruit of constant formal research, our atelier offers the guarantee of a unique product, far removed from the norms of mass production, capable of combining the prestige of precious stones with the warmth of handcrafted workmanship.

The Vera Oriana Choker is not just a fine, handcrafted jewelry adornment, but a symbol of status tied to the savoir-faire of our region. The combination of select diamonds and the strength of the 18kt gold link ensures durability that defies decades. Each creation is a tribute to beauty and dedication, ranking among the most prized handmade gemstone and diamond jewelry for its ability to tell, through every single link of the chain, a story of pure Italian goldsmithing excellence.

Vera-Natalia Diamonds

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:31 +0000

Vera -Natalia Diamonds Choker

The Art of Setting: Pure Diamonds and Sculptural Design The Vera Natalia Choker represents the pinnacle of Silvia Kelly's aesthetic research in the crafting of precious stones. In this creation, diamonds are not simply juxtaposed, but are set in a structure that enhances their natural refraction through a bold and sophisticated design. Often, when looking at diamond jewelry prices, we limit ourselves to evaluating the carat weight, but in the Natalia model, the overall architecture defines the value: each point of light is a hand-set island of brilliance, designed for those who desire luxurious jewelry that combines the classic elegance of the eternal stone with a bold and contemporary setting. The Craftsmanship of Gold: The Soul of the Vera Collection The true distinctiveness of the Natalia choker lies in the chain's elements: unlike other variations in the Vera Collection, here the 18kt gold takes on fuller, more intricate forms, creating a weave that alternates the luster of the metal with the sparkle of diamonds. This "sculptural" link is the result of a complex, handcrafted jewelry production process carried out entirely in our workshop on Lake Como. Although it belongs to the same Vera Collection as the Olimpia and Oriana necklaces, the Natalia necklace stands out for its more pronounced material presence. For those seeking a more linear and geometric structure, the Vera Oriana choker offers a different take on the same goldsmith's excellence. Handmade Artisan Jewelry: Lecco's Excellence Choosing a Silvia Kelly piece means owning an authentic example of handcrafted jewelry. Since 1970, our passion has been transforming Italian gold into creations that tell a story of dedication and precision. The Natalia choker requires hours of meticulous workmanship, where each piece is joined together to ensure perfect flexibility on the neck. This attention to structure makes our Italian-crafted jewelry not only beautiful to look at, but extraordinary to wear.

THE DIAMOND

The name of the stone comes from the Greek word adamas which means “indomitable” - due to its particular hardness. In fact, it is the hardest material in nature with a dazzling brilliance. The peculiarities of the diamond stand out best with the “brilliant” cut. The largest diamond deposits are in Brazil, India and South Africa.

Gioia Tanzanite

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:32 +0000

Gioia Tanzanite Choker

"Joy is not in things, it is in us." - Richard Wagner

The Rarity of Tanzanite: A Precious Gem with an African Heart The Gioia Choker was created to highlight the uniqueness of a gem the world has come to love for its legendary hues: tanzanite. This precious stone, mined exclusively in Tanzania, possesses a magnetic pleochroism, capable of varying from velvety blue to deep purple depending on the light that shines through it. Many customers wonder whether it is better to choose between tanzanite or diamond: while the latter represents eternal light, the former embodies the exclusivity of a color unmatched in nature. When comparing tanzanite vs. sapphire, this gem stands out for its vibrant color and rarity, making it one of the most coveted treasures in contemporary fine jewelry craftsmanship. Gioia Design: The Excellence of Handcrafted Jewelry Design The strength of the Gioia Choker lies in its refined simplicity. The 18kt gold setting was crafted to embrace the stones with a clean, modern line, protecting their contours without obscuring their brilliance. Every element of this jewel is the result of meticulous handcrafting in our atelier on Lake Como, where the shape is molded to fit the gem, not the other way around. For those who wish to complete their style with a piece of equal chromatic intensity but a more intricate design, the choker pairs beautifully with the Zoe Pendant, another fine tanzanite jewelry creation that celebrates the beauty of "handmade." Masterful Craftsmanship in Lecco: Jewelry Handmade with Passion Choosing Silvia Kelly means embracing the philosophy of handcrafted jewelry. For over fifty years, our passion has been transforming Italian gold into settings that enhance the natural brilliance of the stones.

THE DIAMOND

THE TANZANITE

A gem expert used these words to describe this stone: “Tanzanite looks like a sapphire would like to be”. It is a very precious stone, since it is considered a thousand times rarer than diamonds. Its name comes from Tanzania. Along the slopes of Kilimanjaro, in fact, there is the only deposit in the world. It is said to represent vitality and energy and it brings great benefits to the body and the soul when worn.

Dorotea Pearls

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:18:03 +0000

Dorotea Pearls Choker

According to an ancient legend, pearls were a gift from the god Gold, king of the firmament. Traveling along the rainbow that unites heaven and earth, a few drops of color fell from the arch. In the fall, every single drop and every single color mixed with the moonlight. The iridescent unions of lights and colors gently rolled to the sea, giving life to the pearls. The Magic of Colored Pearls: A New Concept of Radiance In the design of the Dorotea Choker, Silvia Kelly explores the infinite hues of freshwater pearls, selecting color variations that depart from classic white to embrace pastel, blush, and bronze tones. These pearls, chosen for their silky luster and regularity of shape, offer a warmer, deeper radiance, capable of harmonizing beautifully with skin tones. The distinctiveness of these organic gems lies in their "orient," that iridescent reflection that seems to emanate from within the stone itself. Choosing a piece of jewelry with colored pearls means embracing a contemporary and sophisticated elegance, perfect for those who wish to stand out with an accessory that emanates a soft, welcoming light. An Enveloping Aesthetic: The Dorotea Collection This exceptional piece is the beating heart of our Dorotea Pearl Collection, a line designed to celebrate femininity through soft curves and innovative color combinations. The choker's setting is a masterpiece of two-tone balance: 18kt white and rose gold intertwine to create a structure that discreetly supports the pearls. Rose gold, in particular, was chosen to enhance the gems' warm hues, while white gold serves as a cool highlight, ensuring a dynamic contrast that makes the piece vibrant. Within the collection, the Dorotea model stands out for its ability to transform pearls into elements of a fluid design, where the precious metal is not simply a frame, but an integral part of an aesthetic narrative of harmony and grace. Artisan Excellence in Lecco: The Value of Handmade Creating a choker that harmonizes different pearl tones requires a chromatic sensitivity and technical expertise that only an artisanal workshop can guarantee. At the Silvia Kelly atelier in Lecco, each piece is assembled by hand, paying the utmost attention to the color sequence and the robustness of the two-tone setting. Our Made in Italy creative workshop allows us to take care of every detail, ensuring that the pearls are perfectly balanced in weight and size for a flawless fit along the décolleté. We invite you to our jewelry store on Lake Como to discover the Dorotea Collection for yourself, where goldsmith expertise meets the natural beauty of pearls to create a jewel that is a true ode to Italian creativity.

In the fall, every single drop and every single color mixed with the moonlight. The iridescent unions of lights and colors gently rolled to the sea, giving life to the pearls. The Allure of Baroque Pearls: Nature Becomes Sculpture In the world of organic gems, Australian baroque pearls represent the pinnacle of exclusivity. Unlike perfect spheres, these pearls are distinguished by their irregular, dynamic, and unique shapes, shaped by the power of the ocean. Each baroque pearl is unique: its reliefs and silvery hues capture the light in a unique way, lending a magnetic and contemporary allure. Choosing a choker with these pearls means celebrating the authentic beauty of nature, transformed into a high-class piece of jewelry unmatched in character and personality. Over 50 Years of Goldsmithing Experience: The Architecture of Gold Hoops The setting of this choker is a tangible testament to the craftsmanship rooted in over 50 years of goldsmithing history. The intertwined circle structure is crafted in a sophisticated two-tone 18kt rose and white gold: a combination designed to create a play of warm and cool contrasts that enhance the silky oriental quality of the pearls. Each circle is hand-forged in our workshop, ensuring a fluidity of movement that allows the piece to rest effortlessly on the neck. This goldsmith's architecture is not merely a support, but a dialogue between metallic geometries and organic forms, where white gold illuminates and rose gold warms the complexion. Silvia Kelly Craftsmanship in Lecco: A Tradition Looking to the Future Creating a choker that enhances the size and uniqueness of Australian baroque pearls requires expertise that only time can bestow. At our Lecco atelier, each creation is the result of decades of aesthetic research and manual technique. Our status as a creative workshop, Made in Italy, allows us to approach each gem with respect, designing the perfect setting for each individual pearl. Attention to detail, from the precision of the soldering to the meticulous selection of each component, is what distinguishes a Silvia Kelly jewel from an industrial production. We invite you to our jewelry store on Lake Como to discover the materiality of this unique piece, where 50 years of artisanal passion merges with the eternal beauty of the world's most precious pearls.

London Prasiolite

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:18:24 +0000

London Prasiolite Choker

Green symbolizes balance. It relaxes and relieves tensions. It helps in concentration, reasoning and achieving the goals set.

The Ethereal Charm of Prasiolite: Green Light at the Heart of a Jewel Prasiolite, also known as green quartz, is a gemstone that enchants with its pale, crystalline hue, evoking the freshness of nature in spring. In Silvia Kelly's London Choker, prasiolite is selected for its extraordinary purity and a cut that enhances its internal brilliance. Unlike more saturated stones, this gemstone offers a delicate shine that adapts with extreme class to any skin tone, reflecting light softly and unobtrusively. Wearing a creation embellished with prasiolite means choosing modern elegance, dedicated to those seeking a precious stone that combines the allure of tradition with the clean lines of contemporary design. Design and Contrasts: The London Prasiolite Collection This refined choker is one of the highlights of our London Prasiolite Collection, a line that celebrates the balance between goldsmith's geometry and natural transparency. The setting is a masterful example of two-tone goldsmithing: 18kt rose gold embraces the prasiolite, warming its reflections, while white gold is strategically used to house small, dazzling diamonds. The inclusion of diamonds is not only a refined detail, but also creates points of light that "light up" the green of the main stone, ensuring constant visual dynamism. Within the collection, the London structure stands out for its ability to make prasiolite the center of a solar system made of gold and diamonds, where each component is designed to enhance the gem's transparency. Craftsmanship and Tradition: Silvia Kelly's Handmade in Lecco Processing a crystal-clear stone like prasiolite requires meticulous attention to detail in the construction of the setting, ensuring that the gold does not obscure its brilliance. At our artisan workshop in Lecco, each London Choker is crafted to the highest Made in Italy standards. With over 50 years of goldsmithing experience, we oversee every soldering of the two-tone structure and every diamond setting entirely by hand. Our creative workshop allows us to ensure that each prasiolite is set with a precision that enhances its depth, offering a piece of jewelry that is both solid and visually light. We invite you to our jewelry store on Lake Como to discover the London Collection, where artisanal expertise transforms gold and stones into wearable emotions.

London Amethyst

London Amethyst Choker

"Blue that blends with red. Maybe it's purple the perfection of a meeting." - GenevaCardinal, Twitter

The Regal Allure of Amethyst: Depth and Purple Light Amethyst has been considered the gem of wisdom and spirituality for centuries, beloved for its hues ranging from delicate lavender to intense purple. In Silvia Kelly's London Choker, amethyst is selected with almost obsessive care: we seek gems with crystalline purity and a color saturation capable of vibrating with the slightest movement. The stone's cut is designed to create a play of internal refractions that illuminate the gem's heart, reflecting shimmers that shift from purple to midnight blue. Wearing an amethyst in this way means choosing a piece of jewelry with character, capable of lending a touch of chromatic nobility to anyone seeking distinctive and uncommon elegance. Prestigious Geometries: The London Amethyst Collection This extraordinary choker is part of our London Collection, a jewelry line that blends modern architecture with the finest goldsmith tradition. The two-tone setting is the distinctive feature of this collection: 18kt rose gold envelops the amethyst in a warm embrace, almost as if protecting its deep color, while white gold supports the lateral diamonds, which act as light amplifiers. The diamonds, set with pinpoint precision, create a cool contrast that contrastingly highlights the amethyst's warm purple, making the London design a perfect balance of visual weight. This collection is designed for those who see jewelry not merely as an ornament, but as a wearable work of art, where every element serves to enhance the center stone. Fifty Years of Goldsmithing in Lecco: The Value of Handmade Creating a choker where the amethyst is perfectly centered in such a complex two-tone structure requires expertise that only decades of work at the goldsmith's bench can provide. At our Lecco workshop, with over 50 years of history behind it, each piece in the London Collection is crafted entirely by hand. Our philosophy as a Made in Italy creative workshop requires us to pay attention to every detail, from the selection of the individual amethyst to the final polishing of the gold, guaranteeing a quality unmatched by industrial production. We invite you to our jewelry store on Lake Como to admire the depth of the amethyst and the perfection of a setting born from the passion and craftsmanship that have distinguished Silvia Kelly for over half a century.

"One morning, as one of us was without black, he used blue: the Impressionism was born." - Pierre-Auguste Renoir

The freshness of Blue Topaz: a crystalline light on the décolleté Blue topaz is one of the most captivating gems for its ability to capture the clarity of air and water in a single crystal.

Elegance in Miniature: The London Petit Collection This delicate choker is one of the most beloved creations in our London Petit Collection, a line born from the desire to offer jewelry with a simple design yet brimming with personality. The collection plays with an extraordinary color palette: in addition to blue topaz, the Petit series explores the warm hues of garnet, the vibrant green of peridot, and the more ethereal variations of light blue topaz. The two-tone 18kt rose and white gold setting has been scaled down to highlight each individual gem, creating a jewel "petit" in name but grand in aesthetics. Within the collection, each stone is expertly framed to ensure that color remains the undisputed protagonist of a light and refined goldsmith's craft.

Blue Topaz Bouclés Choker

"One morning, as one of us was without black, he used blue: the Impressionism was born." - Pierre-Auguste Renoir

The purity of Blue Topaz: a sparkle of water and light In the Boucles Choker design, blue topaz emerges like a fragment of heaven captured in a precious form.

Wearing a piece of jewelry featuring this stone means choosing a serene and profound beauty, capable of conveying a sense of calm and discreet elegance, perfect for those who love gems that express nature and purity. The Boucles design: a sculptural interweaving in two-tone gold The Boucles setting is a true exercise in goldsmith style, where the rigidity of the metal bends into sinuous and welcoming forms. The structure is composed of a series of intertwined 18kt rose and white gold circles that envelop the blue topaz in a dynamic embrace. The rose gold lends an enveloping warmth that contrasts beautifully with the stone's cool brilliance, while the white gold acts as a mirror to emphasize each individual facet of the blue topaz. This is not a simple frame, but a three-dimensional architecture that allows the gem to receive light from every angle, making the necklace vibrant and alive with every movement of the décolleté. Fifty Years of Goldsmith Excellence: the Soul of Silvia Kelly in Lecco Creating such an intricate structure, where gold circles must gracefully support the blue topaz, requires technical expertise rooted in over half a century of artisanal history.

Tartaruga Turquoise Choker

In Aesopus' fable, the turtle wins the hare race because the hare takes it easy, convinced that it is the fastest. Actually turtles are not as slow as you think. The Allure of Turquoise: A Stone of Light and Protection Silvia Kelly's Tartaruga Choker was created to celebrate the vibrant beauty of turquoise, a gemstone that has enchanted for millennia with its hues ranging from sky blue to aqua green. Often associated with protection and serenity, the turquoise in this creation is not just a chromatic element, but the fulcrum of a design conceived to illuminate the face with timeless freshness. Each turquoise gemstone is selected for its purity and intensity, ensuring that each choker is unique, evoking the luminous atmosphere of the Italian coast and the clarity of the purest waters.

This piece is part of the renowned Tartaruga Collection, a line of handcrafted jewelry that explores the contrast between noble metal and semi-precious stones. The true soul of our fine artisanal jewelry lies in the ability to make each creation even more personal: upon request, the turquoise stone can be replaced with the elegance of white agate or the mystery of black agate.

Giving a jewel representing the tree of life means wishing a prosperous and rich life, the beginning of something new and even the birth of a child. The Exclusivity of Black and White Diamonds: Light and Contrast Silvia Kelly's Albero Vita Choker is a creation that redefines the concept of a light source. At the center of the pendant, a refined alternating of black and white diamonds outlines the foliage of a lush tree, a symbol of strength and rebirth. The choice to combine the purity of traditional diamonds with the mysterious allure of black diamonds creates a dynamic refraction that changes depending on the angle of the light. For those undecided between tanzanite and diamond, this creation offers the perfect synthesis: the eternal brilliance of diamonds set in gold and the chromatic depth of a rare gem, creating a visual balance that only comes from exquisite tanzanite jewelry of the highest quality. Fine Jewelry with Tanzanite: A Chromatic Journey Through Italian Gold Further enhancing the value of this piece is the precious tanzanite stone, expertly inserted along the two-tone chain and in the rondel-shaped pendant.

Vida Diamonds Choker

Tree of Life, represents how the universe came into being. The Art of Italian Gold: The Two-Tone Tree of Life At the heart of the Vida Choker beats the heart of Lecco's great goldsmithing tradition. The pendant depicts a majestic Tree of Life, forged through a sophisticated interweaving of 18kt rose and white gold. This is no simple casting, but a true miniature sculpture where the branches, crafted in the warm hue of rose gold, stand out against white gold details, creating a chromatic contrast that lends depth and realism to the figure. This attention to craftsmanship is what makes our Italian gold jewelry unique: each trunk and branch of the tree is hand-finished, celebrating vitality and rebirth through the nobility of Italian gold. Black and White Diamonds: Nature's Precious Fruits If the gold structure represents the strength of life, the diamonds precisely set at the end of each branch are its pulsating light. We chose to alternate the purity of white diamonds with the enigmatic allure of black diamonds to give the piece a contemporary and sophisticated feel. This interplay of black and white contrasts enhances the tips of the branches, transforming every movement into a magnetic glow.

THE DIAMOND

Mafalda Black Agate

IVAN FERRARI — Mon, 19 Apr 2021 05:16:09 +0000

Mafalda Black Agate Choker

Portuguese origin, Mafalda means 'strong in combat'. It entered the tradition of the Savoy House with Princess Mafalda, Vittorio Emanuele's daughter.

The Allure of Black Agate: A Play of Volumes Between Cylinders and Spheres Black agate is the undisputed star of the Mafalda Choker, a creation that breaks the mold of classic jewelry to embrace a modern, sculptural design. In this jewel, the semiprecious stone is not a single element, but a rhythmic succession of expertly alternating black agate cylinders and spheres. This combination of geometric shapes enhances the stone's natural brilliance: the cylinders capture the light along their smooth surface, while the spheres reflect shimmering points, creating a visual contrast that adds depth and movement to the décolleté. Choosing black agate in this guise means opting for a bold elegance, perfect for those who love jewelry that expresses a strong personality through its material. Mafalda Design: The Excellence of Handmade Jewelry on Lake Como The structure of the Mafalda Choker is a masterpiece of balance. Each black agate element is interspersed with 18kt gold inserts, which act as points of light and ensure the jewel's impeccable flexibility. Crafted entirely in our atelier on Lake Como, this piece belongs to our exclusive collection of handmade jewelry, where precision assembly is essential to maintaining the perfect alignment of the cylinders and spheres. If you wish to explore other interpretations of these ancestral stones, the choker pairs beautifully with the Fotuo Jade Pendant, for a spiritual reference, or with the Elettra Black Agate Pendant, where the same stone is crafted into different yet equally sophisticated volumes. Italian Craftsmanship: Fine Jewelry and Artisan Production Choosing Silvia Kelly means highlighting Italian gold jewelry brands that have preserved the value of signature craftsmanship. For over fifty years, our artisanal jewelry production in Lecco has transformed Italian gold and semiprecious stones into timeless, handcrafted jewelry designs. Crafting the Mafalda Choker requires great sensitivity in choosing proportions: the diameter of the spheres must harmonize perfectly with the length of the black agate cylinders to create a continuous line that's comfortable to wear. This almost obsessive attention to detail is the hallmark of our Italian artisanal jewelry, unique pieces born from passion and artisanal dedication, far removed from industrial logic. An Investment in Style: Gold Jewelry Made in Italy In a landscape dominated by mass-produced accessories, Silvia Kelly's Italian-made gold jewelry represents a choice of authenticity. The Mafalda Choker with black agate is not just an ornament, but a statement of style rooted in the culture of "handmade."

Ursula Rubies Choker

Ursula, German version of Orsola. This name brings to the woman the virtue and strength of the she-bear, along with her proud and wild temperament.

The Harmony of Opposites: Rubies and Black Agate in a Unique Design The Ursula Choker by Silvia Kelly is a work of fine jewelry craftsmanship that plays on the power of contrasts. In this creation, the intense passion of rubies meets the rigorous elegance of black agate, giving life to a jewel with a magnetic character. The deep red of the rubies, selected for their saturation and brilliance, is enhanced by the shiny, dark surface of the black agate, creating a visual rhythm that evokes a regal yet contemporary atmosphere. Choosing rubies paired with semiprecious stones means opting for an elegance that's unafraid to dare, where the warmth of 18kt gold serves as the perfect bridge between these two very different chromatic souls. Organic Design: The Excellence of Handmade Jewelry on Lake Como The Ursula Choker is distinguished by its sinuous lines, typical of our handcrafted jewelry. The gold elements are hand-forged to alternate rubies and black agate segments, creating a sequence that gently follows the line of the décolleté. Crafted entirely in our atelier on Lake Como, this piece is a masterful example of how artisanal jewelry can transform noble materials into wearable architecture. If you wish to complete your style with an equally precious symbolic reference, the Ursula Choker can be paired with the Tree of Life Pendant, combining the strength of red and black with the eternal light of diamonds in a handmade jewelry set of rare beauty. Master Goldsmith in Lecco: Italian Gold Jewelry Brands and Tradition Choosing Silvia Kelly means trusting one of the Italian gold jewelry brands that has made research into materials its signature. For over fifty years, our creative workshop in Lecco has transformed Italian gold into settings that enhance every single stone. Crafting the Ursula model requires exceptional craftsmanship: the ruby setting must perfectly harmonize with the volume of the black agate, ensuring a fluidity that only bespoke workmanship can provide. This dedication to detail makes our Italian artisanal jewelry unique, born from the passion and mastery of the Lecco goldsmiths, a far cry from standardized industrial production. An Investment in Elegance: Gold Jewelry Made in Italy In an often soulless global market, Silvia Kelly's Italian-made gold jewelry stands out for its ability to tell a story of excellence.

Ellen Amethyst

silviakelly — Wed, 31 Aug 2022 10:44:06 +0000

THE AMETHYST

Transparent quartz in various shades of purple, it is the most precious variety of quartz used in jewelry. In the Middle Age they said that the amethyst encouraged celibacy and symbolized piety. Used to ornament churches, it was considered the stone of the bishops, who still wear amethyst rings. The most important deposits are in Brazil and Madagascar. Its name derives from the Greek amethystos which means “not drunk”. In fact, amethyst was considered a strong antidote against drunkenness and still today it symbolizes sobriety.

THE GREEN JADE

THE KYANITE

The kyanite (or cyanite) was first identified by the German gemologist Abraham Gottlob Werner in 1789. Until then, it had been considered a blue sapphire. The name Kyanite comes from the Greek word kyanos which means “deep blue”. The most important mining area is along the Kali Gandaki river in Central Eastern Nepal. It is said that wearing a Kyanite gives an intuitive and free vision of life, thanks to the energies released from the subconscious.

Zelinda Tourmaline Choker

“The purest and most thoughtful minds are those who love colors.” – John Ruskin

The Allure of Tourmalines: The Gem of a Thousand Colors Tourmalines are among the most beloved stones in fine jewelry for their incredible color palette, ranging from delicate pinks and forest greens to sunny yellows and deep blues. In Silvia Kelly's Zelinda Choker, this variety becomes the heart of the design: a sequence of tourmalines selected for their harmony and brilliance, creating a dynamic and ever-changing visual effect. Often referred to as "the rainbow stone," tourmaline possesses a vitreous luster that pairs divinely with gold, making each choker a unique and one-of-a-kind piece, capable of magically reflecting light with every movement. Zelinda Design: The Excellence of Handmade Jewelry on Lake Como The Zelinda setting is designed to maximize the gemstones. Crafted entirely from 18kt rose gold in our atelier on Lake Como, the necklace features interwoven rings that allow light to shine through the tourmalines and London topaz from every angle, unleashing their inner fire. This approach, typical of our fine jewelry craftsmanship, ensures that color takes center stage. For those seeking a priceless set, the choker is ideally paired with the Flaviana Ring, another handcrafted jewelry creation that celebrates the beauty of semiprecious stones through soft volumes and impeccable finishes. Designer Craftsmanship: Production of Handcrafted Jewelry and Italian Gold Choosing Silvia Kelly means embracing the philosophy of Italian gold jewelry brands that have preserved the authenticity of designer craftsmanship. Since 1970, our artisanal jewelry production in Lecco has transformed Italian gold into precious frames for rare gems. Crafting the Zelinda Choker requires exceptional sensitivity in combining the different shades of tourmalines and London topaz: each stone is hand-placed to create a fluid and harmonious transition of color. This almost obsessive attention to detail is what makes our Italian artisanal jewelry pieces of wearable art, a far cry from industrial production that cannot match the care and attention to detail of handmade jewelry. An Investment in Joy: Gold Jewelry Made in Italy In an often monochromatic luxury landscape, Silvia Kelly's Italian gold jewelry stands out for its ability to convey emotion through color. The Zelinda Choker with tourmalines is not only a prestigious accessory, but an investment in the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of our region. If you're wondering where to buy gold jewelry in Italy that combines the quality of 18kt gold with the rarity of colored stones, our artisanal workshop is the ideal destination. Each creation is a tribute to the excellence of Made in Italy, positioning itself among the most sought-after handcrafted gold jewels by those seeking a piece of handmade jewelry that is simultaneously precious, modern, and vibrant with light.
