ART & MANNER
"MARIA BATTAGLIA,
GOLD AND MANNER"
At the genesis of a Maria Battaglia jewel, there is first the vision and then the hand that brings it to life, a pas de deux between the designer and the craftsman, from the first sketch to the final finish. Each of the creations is the expression of multiple talents ; that of founders, gilders, lapidaries...
Each model begins with a drawing, when the lines are fixed, the proportions weighed, the craftsmen take over and give shape to the models. Driven by their profession, and in love with a job well done, they cast, mount, crimp, gild and patinate with a perfect mastery of their gestures. Every detail is taken care of and carried out according to the rules of the jewelry art which requires patience and high precision. It is from this work of excellence that each piece in the Maria Battaglia collection is born.
In a world where craftsmanship seems to capitulate to the law of automation, the jewelry offered by Maria is a tribute to the long time and irreplaceable know-how of man. They demonstrate an extraordinary ability to create exceptional pieces and an ultimate taste for precious materials. Raw and fascinating, as rare as they are mysterious, each of the gems and stones set on Maria Battaglia creations is selected with the greatest care for its purity, brilliance, nuances and subtleties.
Maria Battaglia is committed to defending a vision of jewelry that reconciles heritage and innovation. To make this alliance possible, she entrusted the creation of her jewelry to workshops specializing in metal recasting. Recognized for their jewelry know-how, these workshops combine a perfect mastery of new technologies that allow them to create exceptional fine jewelry pieces in recycled gold. The molten gold then gives life to a new creation.
Maria Battaglia is a creator of her time. To achieve the level of excellence sought, it collaborates with craftsmen experienced in precision technologies. Vacuum investment casting, laser cutting, and 3D printing casting are integrated into the manufacturing process and coupled with more traditional techniques, such as hand setting. A perfect balance between tradition and modernity that offers impeccable quality in the realization of the jewel.
