Pomellato supports the Light and Reflections project that created a state-of-the-art illumination system for the façade of the Ca’ d’Oro and has unveiled a unique Venetian Dream diamond-set high jewellery necklace, inspired by this iconic Gothic palazzo
Pomellato has collaborated once again with Venetian Heritage, an international foundation chaired by Valentina Marini Clarelli Nasi, which safeguards and promotes the artistic legacy of Venice. Its Light and Reflections project brings a state-of-the-art illumination system to the façade of the Ca’ d’Oro, which hosts the State Museum Galleria Giorgio Franchetti alla Ca’ d’Oro and belongs to the Direzione regionale Musei Veneto, part of the Italian Ministry of Culture.
The palace on Venice’s Grand Canal is famous for its exquisite open-work marble façade that in the past was partially gilded, giving it the name ‘golden house.’ As a tribute to the Light and Reflections project, Pomellato has created the Venetian Dream high jewellery necklace, inspired by the mesmerising play of light that fills the building. The abundant forms of the façade, including the quatrefoil openings, have been decoded and distilled into three geometrical shapes that form the rose gold pendant.
The irregular silhouettes of seven dazzling, fancy-cut diamonds set in a line capture the otherworldly quality of the point where the rippling water of the Grand Canal meets the symmetry of the building. The chain is set with more than 4,000 diamonds that give it a light and shimmering quality, reminiscent of the dreamlike reflections of Venice’s cityscape. The necklace will only be available in the Pomellato’s Venice boutique.
