The Technique

A craftsmanship that once adorned the Duchess of Florence

In Bronzino's famous portrait at the Uffizi, Eleonora di Toledo, Duchess of Florence, wears a delicate gold net across her chest and shoulders. That gold mesh is called reticella d'oro, "the little golden net," one of the rarest textile techniques in the world. Its roots go back to ancient Greece and it was brought to Florence during the Renaissance.

Every bridal piece I make is hand-knitted from a single wire using this same tradition, which I call plekta d'oro. Intricate to look at, and light enough to forget you are wearing it. Each piece is one of a kind and cannot be replicated.

Questions

Everything you need to know

How does the ordering process work?+
Everything can be done remotely through video calls and messages. We talk through your dress, your palette and your story, and I send you sketches and a realistic visual showing you wearing each design. Once we decide which design suits you best, I start working on your piece. During the process, I keep you updated and send you a photos of your piece as it is constructed.
How far in advance should I order?+
For a bespoke commission, 2 to 3 months before the wedding is ideal. A piece from the ready-to-wear bridal collection which you can see in the photos above, takes around 10 to 15 days to make.
Can I choose my stones and metal?+
Yes. Every piece is available in sterling silver, 18k gold vermeil or solid gold. Stones are chosen together during the design phase.
Do you ship internationally?+
Worldwide, by DHL or FedEx, fully tracked. Duties are covered by the customer unless the piece ships within Italy where the wedding takes place.
Can I see the piece before it is made?+
Yes. For bespoke commissions, I create a realistic visual showing you wearing the design, so you can see exactly how it will look before I begin.
What if the sizing is not right?+
Sizes are confirmed before making. If anything needs adjusting on arrival, I can fix it at no extra cost.
Do you create pieces for bridesmaids?+
Yes. I create coordinated bridal jewelry sets for bridesmaids and the mother of the bride. We can discuss about the options through a call or email.
