Vincenzo Castaldo, Creative Director of Pomellato, commented: “The Iconica Venezia collection is inspired by the timeless beauty of St. Mark's Basilica. The combination between red and green porphyry has a great appeal and it is recurring on the tessellated floor of St. Mark’s church which is an incredible marble carpet spread over 2099 square metres. Creating Iconica Venezia was a challenging and exciting project, as always when using new materials rarely found in mainstream jewellery. The color, the symbolic meaning of the porphyry, and the material’s specificities needed to find the perfect interpretation into a Pomellato language, made of sensual, soft and essential shapes creating a dialogue between past, present and future. Iconica Venezia pays homage to Venice and its extraordinary heritage.” #Pomellato #IconicaVenezia #IconicaCollection #Venezia
