The eternal fascination of Capri

It has been a real pleasure to spend some time yesterday evening at Chantecler Capri’s Milan office (this is actually the HQ) and listen to the brand’s amazing, colourful and vibrating story!

The occasion for this press day was the official presentation of the Company book, titled Capri Jewels, The Love and Creation of Beauty (published by Rizzoli). A book passionate about Capri, its Nature and its inherent sense of freedom – all real and at the same abstract dimensions of which Chantecler Capri jewels are imbued.

A living heritage which does speak Capri’s language (its blooming flowers, its romantic sunsets, its glamourous Dolce Vita) and which keeps living today through Chantecler Capri’s creations.

Here is a gallery of jewels and memorable moments highlighted out of this book:

Yesterday evening was also occasion for the presentation of the new Anima Collection, of which you will soon see pictures – update at 20:30: well, I do have pictures now!

Here is the gallery with my personal selection out of this brand new and fresh collection, which mother of pearl deep hues do recall the vibrating reflections of Capri sea landscape, and bring new life to the historical iconic symbols of the Maison. A collection, Anima, in yellow and pink gold, which is an authentic celebration of Chantecler’s fundamentals, revisited in an utterly modern way:

Anima “gallo” earrings

Chantecler Anima Chevalier ring

Chantecler Anima Collection pendant earrings

Chantecler Anima Chevalier ring, with diamonds

Chantecler Anima sautoir

To give you a flavour of the event, here are a couple of pictures I took yesterday evening, promising to be more professional next time and providing you with a full photographic report!
