Orafo del Naviglio
Reclaimed gold, modern lines, old hands.
Why it’s a hidden gem
On the Naviglio, behind a courtyard, a goldsmith takes the gold you no longer wear — a grandmother's chain, a broken band — and gives it a second life as something you will. Nothing is mined. Everything carries a memory forward.
The lines are clean and contemporary; the material is the opposite of new. It is, he says, "the most honest gold there is."
