Your Summer Jewellery Styling Guide: Introducing FerriFirenze’s Newest Collections
The Florentine fine jeweller is a maestro at crafting elegant jewels that exude Italian opulence
Soaring temperatures mean sartorial choices shift to feather-light materials, free-flowing silhouettes and effortless, easy-breezy pairings – and the same goes for fine jewellery. As the mercury rises, we instinctively reach for pieces that scintillate without smothering the skin, keen to balance lavishness with lightness.
Fine jeweller FerriFirenze captures this duality with the ultimate finesse. Headquartered in the heart of Florence, the maison’s atelier sits within a 16th-century Renaissance villa, Corsi Salviati. First purchased by the Corsi Marquises in 1503, for several hundred years the villa served as a haven for musicians, poets, artists and dreamers – an idyllic backdrop for creative meetings of minds. This bohemian heritage is reflected in the enchanting array of ancient frescos, bubbling fountains and statues of mythological beings that embellish the grounds, which provide constant inspiration for FerriFirenze’s exquisite collections.
Interpreting this legacy for the modern day, founder Ilaria Furlotti and master craftsman Giulio Ferrari conceive jewels that display the highest level of artisanal craftsmanship, imbued with the gardens’ poetic lyricism. Each piece is intended as an heirloom of tomorrow, with precious metals and gems artfully arranged to embody both tradition and timeless elegance.
In the maison’s newest collections, the spirit of endless summer is deftly captured. Unsure how to infuse this summer feeling into your fine jewellery collection? Read on…
Find a one-and-done pair of earrings
The ultimate pair of summer-ready earrings can be worn with a white, button-down shirt at a yacht party in Capri or just as easily with an evening dress – and they should be just imposing enough to catch the eye, without being impractical on sweltering afternoons. The Elica collection offers the perfect pair: inspired by a gentle breeze whisking fallen leaves at Corsi Salviati on summer evenings, its sculptural spirals are delicately studded with diamonds.
Embrace coloured diamonds
While white diamonds sparkle potently in sunlight, there is a whole spectrum of coloured diamonds that will add texture, shadow and shine to your styling. Inspired by the villa’s lush flora and meandering vines, the Bamboo collection features slender tendrils set with both white and champagne-coloured diamonds – an understated way to elevate summer tailoring.
Choose a sensational suite
Fine jewellery suites are ideal for after-dark events. In fact, a full parure will make maximum impact when paired with a modern column gown or jumpsuit – don’t hesitate to wear a necklace, earrings, bracelet and cocktail ring all at once. The Ninfea collection’s fluted motifs, inspired by the graceful water lilies that flourish in the villa’s fountain, are especially impactful en masse.
For those keen to discover FerriFirenze’s unique pieces and new collections in person here in the region, mark your calendars.
