Bouquet of violets

The works of the Santagostino company from the Italian city of Valenza evoke a lot of emotions in any case - both if you like it and if you don't like it categorically. The baskets of carved stone flowers and fruits are bright and redundant, like the paintings of Archimboldo.
The Santagostino family - mother, father and son work slowly, never repeating themselves and not looking back at anyone. They do not hide a peculiar sense of humor, which is so rare in the jewelry world - a grinning green frog appears in a beautiful bouquet, which seems to have climbed to sniff a flower, but could not resist and moved off with one paw. In the static art of jewelry, Santagostino managed to capture the movement, the charm of life. This is what makes us come back to Santagostino things again and again and look at them endlessly.
Santagostino uses only natural materials - semi-precious and precious stones, gold, pearls, mother of pearl. Blocks of bright enamel in the form of strawberries, frogs and bees are used where similar colors cannot be obtained from stones. Every owner of a small Santagostino garden can be sure that he is the owner of a treasure.
