CLASSIC AND CONTEMPORARY JEWELRY
THE COLLECTIONS
The result of over 25 years of intense creative commitment has materialized in the creation of multiple collections such as FUTURA, THE OTHER, BAROCCA, CONDOTTIERA and ANGEL with decisive and innovative lines, SEGNO, LUDICA and SOFFIO, refined in their essentiality, FRIDA, with sinuous and sensual, ASYMMETRIC and TEODORA that tell of royal femininity, EVANESCENZE, ethereal and precious, ONDE, TRAME and MAREE, with harmonic irregular motions.
All the collections are made up of pendants, necklaces, rings, bracelets and earrings and can be made both in gold and silver, or in bronze.
Refined productions for a never ordinary everyday life, they enhance a multifaceted femininity, full of interests and attentive to the refinement of details.
The salient peculiarity of the various elaborations is that of telling traces of signifier, with the awareness that this is even more valid than the meaning and having designed "forms" that make explicit points of contact between times, materials, techniques and environments. Research that has led Manuela Telesca over the years to draw (among other things) inspiration from her land, Basilicata, to which she has dedicated some jewelry collections.
ANGEL
“Angel”, metal angels who live on the same substance as dreams.
For the artist, an angel is illusion, protection, a caress that transmits meaning, a dialogue with the other and with the beyond.
The angel is the sweetest support to fight the loneliness of a world that often ignores us, it is the essence
ephemeral and transitory nature of existence, a reality suspended just like wings above the clouds.
Merisabell Calitri Art historian
The Other
ìTHE OTHER originated initially as a sophisticated creation (bronze sculpture on crystal) representing Basilicata as a land of light. The objective was to transport/transfigure, onto a metal sheet, the architecture of the Matera stones that, when illuminated in the evening, create luminous frames like diverse windows, characterising the elusive "beauty" that is challenging to decipher. Yet, it captivates.
Following the bronze sculpture, nestled to compact on crystal, came other architectures, modern and ancient landscapes with diverse geometries, both primitive and cosmopolitan. Their voids, symbolising "differences" and spaces of pure fantasy, are sometimes adorned with quartz, diamonds, topaz, aquamarines, and emeralds. And the "beauty," the "light," still distant to reach, has in the meantime become wearable.
Asymmetric
Extroverted and bold traits, almost runic rudiments that skilfully lay on the body. Ergonomic, ensuring comfortable wear and absence of closures. Asymmetric, in silver or bronze, it reveals itself adorned with white topazes, rutilated quartz, and pristine pearls.
Soffio
The creators of the SOFFIO collection, the breathtaking landscapes of the Lucanian Dolomites.
Grooves intersected by precious stones trace unique works.
Trame
Collection born from inspirations of ancient bronze chainmail warrior belts, from which they draw energy, precious and interconnected creative plots. Diverse, they soar into very contemporary jewellery.
Barocca
One reinterprets, transmuting it, the concept of 'monads' that, in the form of precious windows (no longer closed), design jewels that simulate the openings in the porous tuff of the ancient houses of the city of Matera. The BAROCCA collection tells of precious monads now communicating.
Condottiera
Condottiera, an eclectic "leading lady," with decisive and elaborate features. She untangles and recomposes, embellishes, and finally asserts herself on long red carpets.
Evanescenze
When "essential" is more than beautiful. EVANESCENZE, a collection with "imperial" features reinterpreted by a classic design that becomes contemporary for elegant and refined women.
Frida
The "Frida" collection is inspired by an ancient gold diadem, decorated with small roses. A tribute to Frida Khalo, a sensual and eclectic artist, a lover of roses that she also wore in her hair.
Futura
Suggestions induced by not only futuristic geometries. Futura is a collection where the linearity of forms sometimes repeats modularly. With dynamic design, it embellishes and shows itself for what it is: "egocentric" in its essentiality.
Ludica
From traces of a very ancient and primordial past, the spiral, a pattern of the motion of the universe, drawn by all civilizations of the world, reworked in the LUDICA collection, is proposed again in jewels with essential and trendy design.
Maree
MAREE is a dream that returns to which we must give substance. The sea with its movements, when calmed, welcomes you. Manuela forges small whirlpools, round sinuous metal bodies, stones, and pearls that come together in mutual attraction.
Onde
Suggestions put into shape. The lines that mark the ONDE collection are curves, energetic jumps, and pearly hollows, which, artistically modeled, welcome pearls and candid stones.
Segno
Teodora
TEODORA is inspired by ancient jewelry from Basilicata. Round shapes and sinuous vines are enriched with amber, quartz, pearls, and tell of regal femininity.
