Gianpiero Casolani - Jewelry Designer & Artist Details
Lightness is one of my ideals. And my jewelry is light.The gems hover displayed on the structures in which they are embedded.The interlocking is always an aesthetic game to show in synergy with the person who wears it. The clean minimalism of modern aesthetics and the multifaceted faces of a brilliant baroque are my starting and finishing points.It feels like a new project each and every time. I invent a new creative movement for the lines that will make my jewel, the jewel I will love to see you wear.AN ART STORYIn 1600, my ancestor Alessandro Casolani depicted his paintings imagining and creating the colors that would give life to his art.When I was 8 years old I discovered my passion for construction was fascinated by hobby modeling. I still remember my boxes for assembling soldiers and airplanes and the pleasure it gave me to build and paint them, recreating the scenarios that gave life to my imagination. Andrea, my father, introduced me to my first master and I followed him, learning from then onwards the ancient arts of the trade.A JEWELRY CRAFTSMANMy passion has led me to Rome for a period of time, working in the street of antique dealers and jewelers. When I think back to Via dei Coronari, behind Piazza Navona, I always find the details of the copies of ancient jewelry or the pieces that went to auction to which I contributed in the realization.My professional life is studded with different experiences, I have worked in different laboratories and those who trained me are masters from whom I have absorbed, with deep pride, everything that made me the jewelry craftsman I became.
