MILAN ’ S MONOCHROMATIC TREASURES
MOONSTONES Inspired by the mist that often envelops Milan , this collection showcases the beauty of moonstones illuminated by melee diamonds . Pomellato ’ s unique spirit shines through in the 11 cabochons . A rose gold choker featuring 211.50 carats of moonstones interspersed with links adorned with white diamond pavé . Pomellato ’ s signature prongs embrace each stone , creating a bold yet refined effect . Complementing the choker are two rings , each starring a moonstone cabochon - one at 41.91 carats and the other at 32.79 carats held by diamond prongs in rose gold . Rounding out the collection are two pairs of earrings showcasing oval moonstones crowned by diamond paved golden discs .
PLANETARIO An ode to celestial spheres , this collection captures the feeling of stargazing under Milanese skies , paying tribute to the iconic Planetario designed by Portaluppi . A constellation of 23 rare Tahitian pearls in stormy shades orbits a rose gold chain , their inky luminescence accentuated by the sparkle of diamonds , blue sapphires and grey spinels , culminating in a detachable pendant of gems - a conjunction of the celestial and the earthly . A ring
and a pair of earrings with Tahitian pearls , diamond pavé orbs , and precious stones align like planets pulled into each other ’ s orbit , completing the collection .
PLANETARIO NOTTURNO Emblematic of Pomellato ’ s artistry , this choker blends two of its most specialised goldsmithing techniques : gourmette chain links and irregular diamond pavé , a setting that appears almost organic . The magic of this two-part piece lies in the contrast between the fluidity of the rose gold links , which feel like silk on the skin , and the bold structure of a rose gold disc encrusted with a swirl of diamonds and storm-grey spinels . Amidst this constellation , eight randomly placed anthracite spinels evoke the sky at dusk , recalling the primordial chaos of the universe . The earrings dance with twilight tones , as hues of blue and grey spinels alternate with the sparkle of brilliant diamond pavé , crowned by a halo of grey sapphires .
CIELO STELLATO This collection pays homage to the star mosaics that adorn Milan ’ s planetarium . At the heart of a refined rose gold chain , a cluster of grey sapphires and spinels forms a celestial focal point , framed by an organic link of white diamonds . The contrast of precise geometry and free form shapes this necklace with captivating dynamism . A coordinated brooch unites rose gold , diamonds and grey sapphires and spinels in an astral motif .
ARENGARIO Paying tribute to the iconic Palazzo dell ’ Arengario in Piazza del Duomo , Pomellato has crafted a necklace that captures the essence of Milan ’ s rationalist architecture . This piece interweaves rose gold elements meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans : a sleek rose gold chain adorned with a pavé of white diamonds forms the foundation , while at its heart , intricate rose gold lattices shimmer with a blend of brown and white diamonds , their facets catching the light like the sun on the Arengario ’ s historic façade .
