CRESCENZO GAGLIONE
Crescenzo Gaglione, like his brother Lucio, looks back to a long family tradition of coral engravings art. Gaglione dedicates his whole life to coral, cameo and turquoise sculpting. He reclaims the mosaic techniques to realize cameos of different shades of colour, thanks to the use and combination of materials such as coral and turquoise.

PACIFIC CORAL: “CORALLIUM ELATIUS”
According to the legend, the coral was born from the blood of the beheaded Medusa, that coloured and petrified the seaweeds upon which Perseo had laid/ placed her head, turning them into coral. However, the science has another explanation: the coral is the calcareous secretion produced by little octopus communities, with support and protection function. These secretions, blending together, result in colonies.
In jewellery, the most appreciated corals, both for their value and beauty, are those from the Mediterranean Sea and the Pacific Ocean.
The coral coming from the Pacific Ocean can be divided into three subcategories: Corallium Elatius, Secundum and Japonicum.
Elatius coral stands out for the size of its branches. It occurs in different shades of colour: from Momo in salmon and peach colour, up to the rarest Angel skin, in light pink. The coral in angel skin, due to the rarity and uniformity of its colour, is the finest and most valued among the coral varieties.
18 Kt GOLD
Pure gold, as present in nature, is a malleable material. So, in order to be used in jewellery, it must be alloyed with other metals. As a consequence, gold can have different colorations: yellow gold requires additional alloys like brass, zinc and silver; in white gold, on the other hand, are used alloys of brass (in reduced amount compared to yellow gold) and palladium.
ROCK CRYSTAL
From the Greek krystallos yalos, “clear ice”, the rock crystal is traditionally the material that creates the crystal balls: it is believed that it can read the future and the past of everyone.
Yet in mineralogy the rock crystal is a quartz variety, pure, colourless and transparent, usually found in Brazil, Madagascar and Japan.
