Giovanni Raspini has launched its Nomad collection in the UK, inspired by the creations of nomadic tribes around the world.
Consisting of 31 bracelets, bangles and necklaces made from gold-plated bronze, the Tuscan luxury jewellery brand said the range is shaped by precious metals, cultural meanings and oversized designs that favour an “irregular, handcrafted” approach to surface and textures rather than geometric shapes.
The line’s rigid jewellery is produced using a lost-wax casting technique, an ancient, precise metal-forming technique used to produce intricate, detailed components in gold, silver, brass, and bronze.
Reflections and light plays within the jewellery, naturally unique to each piece, are added via hammering on metal sheets.
The pieces are augmented with natural semi-precious stones such as rock crystal, rose quartz, lapis lazuli, turquoise paste and sizable freshwater baroque pearls.
The collection’s carved discs, coins and pendants are complimented by light chains and round links.
Commenting on the range, the company said: “Giovanni Raspini’s creations have always been connected by common threats; experimenting with new forms of expression, developing a style with a strong sculptural and material impact, creating surprising elegant and wearable fashion jewellery, and enhancing the brand’s core identity.
“From Berbers and Tuaregs to Native Americans and ancient inhabitants of Central Asia steppes; this creative range is inspired by infinite imagination and captures the essence of sunny and evocative landscapes, where nature reveals its unspoiled beauty. A collection that evokes ancient languages of silence, warmth and living materials.”
