In the month when love becomes a universal language, Cierre Gioielli presents Intrecci d’Amore, a limited edition collection born from the encounter between the great tradition of Italian goldsmithing and the contemporary artistic research of Marco Coda. A project that goes beyond the celebration of Valentine’s Day to become a declaration of identity, material, and sentiment.
A historic Neapolitan goldsmith company, now based in the productive heart of the Il Tarì Goldsmith Center in Marcianise, Cierre Gioielli translates art into jewelry, reaffirming the value of high-quality Italian craftsmanship: that made by expert hands, slow times, absolute precision, and respect for the material.
The collection consists of two silver pendants, inspired by Marco Coda’s iconic works Baciami (Kiss Me) and Légami nel cuore (Bind Me to Your Heart). These are not simple formal transpositions, but authentic wearable works of art, in which the artist’s poetics are preserved and rendered through the language of designer jewelry.
The central element of the project is the braided rope, the Neapolitan artist’s stylistic signature, reinterpreted here by the master goldsmiths of Cierre Gioielli with a technical expertise that reflects centuries of Italian craftsmanship. Each weave is modeled by hand, each relief designed to capture the light, each empty and full space respected in its three-dimensionality. Silver becomes a living, tactile surface, capable of conveying emotion.
Baciami (Kiss Me) celebrates the most intimate and universal gesture: the kiss as openness, vulnerability, authentic contact. The intertwined cords form a mouth that is not just an image, but a sensation. The jewelry retains the expressive power of the original work, transforming it into a symbol to be worn on the body, close to the heart.
Légami nel cuore explores the theme of connection: Marco Coda’s contemporary heart is constructed through knots and intertwining that tell of relationships, choices, and deep connections. Here, Italian goldsmithing shows off all its technical excellence, making it possible to faithfully translate a complex artistic material into a piece of jewelry of extraordinary precision and meaning.
“We worked hard to ensure that none of the emotional intensity of the original works was lost,” explains Dario Caropreso, CEO of Cierre Gioielli. “The challenge was to transform large material works into jewelry without distorting their soul. This is where the value of Made in Italy emerges: in the ability to combine art, technique, and sensitivity.”
Each pendant is available in two sizes and bears Marco Coda’s signature engraved on the back, guaranteeing its uniqueness and authenticity. This detail seals the meeting of two worlds: that of contemporary art and that of high-end Italian goldsmithing.
Intrecci d’Amore represents a further step for Cierre Gioielli towards an idea of jewelry that goes beyond the decorative to become a cultural, aesthetic, and emotional experience. A project that tells true stories, such as those shared on social media through branded content dedicated to authentic love and serendipity, values deeply shared by the brand and the artist.
In a market increasingly oriented towards the search for meaning, Cierre Gioielli reaffirms the role of Italian goldsmithing as a contemporary language, capable of preserving tradition and, at the same time, speaking to the present.
