CIRO BATTAGLIA

Art History Professor at several art institutes in Campania, Battaglia is both a passionate and a great engraver of cameos and coral. His style, which can be defined as classical, undergoes and reworks the artistic influences of the Renaissance and Neoclassicism, as demonstrated by his particular attention to symbolism and allegory.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Materials” tab_id=”1627375066993-9e5ffd04-d782″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1638443504974{padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}”]

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.

ONYX

According to the legend, onyx has been created when Cupid cut the nails of sleepy Venus and kept them on the floor. Since they were part of a divine creature, her nails were divine too and, for this reason, they became gems; indeed, the Greek onyx means “nail”. It is believed that this black stone cancelled negative thoughts and sharpened the intelligence.
Today, since it is a hard and precious stone, the onyx is used to create jewels.
