Pomellato unveils Dualism of Milan collection

Pomellato has announced the launch of its new high jewellery collection the Dualism of Milan.

The collection features 51 exclusive pieces, and is a “testament to Pomellato’s deep-rooted connection to its homeland”.

The collection is divided into two complementary themes, each interpreting Milan through the unique lens of Pomellato.

The quietest side of Milan is characterised by an aesthetic that relies on refined design, discreet details and a subtle use of colour.

With this very spirit the company created 23 high jewellery pieces that encode subtle details and an unexpected colour palette suspended between day and night.

The most flamboyant side of Milan is often expressed with the use of unprecedented colour combinations, just like in the creations of Gio Ponti.

Gems take centre stage in this side of the collection including fuchsia spinels, electric blue tanzanites, lush green tourmalines.

Vincenzo Castaldo, creative director of Pomellato, said: “First and foremost, I wanted to convey the spirit of the city, a mix of rationalist architecture, skyscrapers with their sinuous lines, the night-time atmosphere of the shopping arcades. Then I wanted to illustrate this ability that Milan has always had to focus on colour in every creation, such as the work of Gio Ponti or the Memphis Group.

“These two spirits of Milan resonate with the inner identity of Pomellato,” Vincenzo Castaldo goes on to say. “It rests on what is tangible, perfect knowledge of artisan jewellers, Pomellato’s complete mastery of all the steps involved in creating a piece of high jewellery, and what is intangible in the creation, where the colour of a stone or the shape of a jewel evokes an emotion.”

He added: “In combining these two apparently opposite faces of Milan, one concrete, the other intangible, each with its own character, this high jewellery collection gives us a true, in-depth, multi-dimensional view of the city.”
