IL COLOSSEO

Year: 2024 · 1 of 1 for Tony Effe · committed by Risivi & Co. · Material: Ceramic and leather

Inspired by one of Italy’s most iconic architectural symbols, this project reinterprets the Colosseum as a sculptural jewelry display conceived to host the exclusive necklace created by Risivi & Co for Tony Effe.

The structure has been entirely handcrafted in semi-refractory clay and finished with a glossy white ceramic glaze, transforming the monument into a contemporary collectible object suspended between art, architecture, and luxury jewelry presentation. At the center of the sculpture, a custom Alcantara-lined compartment has been specifically designed to support and elevate the necklace, creating a refined contrast between the polished ceramic surface and the soft interior material.

The installation also integrates a dual LED lighting system developed to illuminate both the jewelry piece and the internal architectural cavity, enhancing depth, reflections, and the overall scenographic presence of the sculpture.

Entirely handcrafted, the project combines Italian architectural heritage, contemporary craftsmanship, and luxury display design into a one-of-one sculptural piece.
