CRAFTSPEOPLE / DEVIS PALAZZI
PORTOVERDE – ITALY – GOLDSMITH
The classic Italian tradition of jewellery-making crosses modern technology. So, creativity has all the instruments necessary to craft unique jewellery inspired by nature and its colours.
These few words represent the heart of the entire work of Devis Palazzi, master goldsmith. He is able, with his creations, to interpret his surrounding world and to satisfy wishes of customers which place their trust in him to have something precious, original and personal.
His passion for drawing led Devis to the Institute of Art of Pesaro and then to choose, purely for curiosity, a course in metal arts.
The burning passion for goldsmith art, which arose by chance, grew inexorably day after day, being fed by teachers, personal experiences and first small creations.
So, it was not love at first sight but certainly becomes a great love.
And, if you ask Devis when he understood having taken the right path, he won’t be able to reply. However, he remembers well all times he thought not to be good enough for this work, moments that drove him to try even harder.
This is an honest answer which reveals a deep respect for the glorious Italian goldsmith tradition of which Devis today is a worthy and esteemed representative.
An initial idea, a spark of inspiration, needs to be recorded quickly. In this sense, paper and pencil are the most efficient tools. After the first sketch, then a more detailed drawing is produced, where shapes and colours find their place as the result of the creative process.
Later a rendering and a 3D printed model are produced. This printed example is very important to understand size, balance and size range of the jewellery.
Lastly, comes craftsmanship, the know-how of goldsmith tradition which has remained unchanged over time. Precise masterful work, movements to model metals, to set stones and to give shape to nature, transforming available materials into small works of art that can be worn.
Precious and beautiful.
Looking in the window of Devis’s Atelier, which overlooks Portoverde marina, you can really appreciate how much the sea plays an important role in his creativity process.
Jewellery exposed, with its sparkling gold and precious stones, are superimposed with boats white reflection, dark blue water and intense light blue sky , creating a full and electrifying chromatic palette. The fragrance of the air, lapping of the waves, creaking of the ropes and distant call of the seagulls complete the charming scene.
And so, a coral seahorse, finely set by hand with diamonds, does not even seem to be the work of man, but rather a jewel emerged from the sea and taken rest right there, in that shop window.
As if by magic.
