Dangle earrings have always embodied an elegant harmony of light, movement, and history. They gently fall around the face, catch the light, and frame the visage with grace. From ancient civilizations to contemporary design, they have represented refinement, craftsmanship, and style.
🏛️ Gaetano Chiavetta: Between Tradition and Modern Reinvention
A contemporary interpreter of this tradition is Gaetano Chiavetta, a Sicilian goldsmith now based in London. Raised among the artisanal workshops of Palermo, he learned ancient techniques from a young age, enabling him to create high-quality, finely crafted jewels today—almost always inspired by classical ancient models.
You may have come across his snake earrings with diamonds online—elegant serpent-shaped pendants in gold and diamonds, crafted for Bentley & Skinner.
Or his Chandelier earrings, inspired by Marie Antoinette's ones (in the picture up there) reinterpreted with rock crystal, amethyst, or multigems.
Gaetano is also deeply influenced by Etruscan and ethnic jewelry traditions, realized using ancient methods like lost-wax casting and hammering.
