Dazzling Designs: Sense of Nature, Touch of Soul
Pippo Perez unveils his latest creation—fashioned, desired and cradled with the same passion as always and with his usual ability to marry art and trend, to fuse the natural and the artificial, to express magic, to perfect the initial idea with the knowledge of a noble, unstoppable obsession. The line “Capri Snake” has arrived. The project is called “Fabbrichiamo il mondo” (“Building the World”) and was launched at the Fiera di Vicenza, which was the first fair an 18-year-old Pippo exhibited in, the fair of this creative jeweller who seems to have taken away the breath of time and the eternal youthful talent of the main character of one of Oscar Wilde’s novels. It is the fair that has secured his success and has placed him among the foremost players in the international gold Olympus. The fantastic, new, mysterious and suggestive line Capri Snake was presented during a press release in the world capital of gold fairs, on January 16, 2006. Pippo and Lilla Perez, as well as Victor Kei and Ringo Cheung, representatives of K.T.L., were very pleased with the great success at the launching of their new collection. In this line, not only the ring originates from the bracelet, the Pippo and Lilla Perez 2006 collection also includes a Snake necklace with diamonds, sapphires and rubies set in gold.
{{Aquarium & Star Fish Collection:}}$$ Imagine the sea, the deep blue emitting echoes and scents, as in the coves and crags of Capri. That sea is in Pippo’s DNA. He will never betray it, but he will always feel the dependence, the spell, the attraction, and the subjection of it. From this comes the line “Aquarium,” of the Capri marine fauna. Behold the fabulous starfish ring, part of a full set with earrings, in diamonds drifting from dark brown to light blue, surrounded by three beautiful pearls. And this is only the beginning of this collection of great artistic value, which surprises and conquers. From Arabian Nights. From Capri. Because never before now has Pippo Perez known how to top himself.
{{Dream Comes True:}}$$ The dream of Pippo and Lilla Perez, winners of multiple editions of the De Beers Diamond International and of the World Gold Council, has always been to create the design of a masterpiece, carry out part of the gold working and then to perfect the piece with modern microscope mounting technology. And the dream has now come true. Another line of rings, earrings and bracelets which takes the romantic name of “My Dream Diamond,” a mix between the story of Cinderella and a James Bond adventure, actually represents an affectionate homage on the part of Pippo and his sister, Lilla, to their extraordinary mother, a woman who had always loved large cut diamonds with an unmatched passion.Pippo has created a jewel in gold which recalls the form and facets of a real 32 carat diamond bearing hundreds of set diamonds with a one-millimetre diameter, creating an effect that seems to cast a spell and transforms the wish into an authentic vision, a mirage with a real sensation. Seen up close, Pippo’s jewel looks like a real 32 carat diamond. Every woman’s dream comes true.
