If you're someone who has dabbled in or is deeply enthusiastic about jewellery, you’re likely no stranger to Bottega Veneta's Drop motif earrings. Known for their sculptural boldness and delicate wearability, the Drop earrings have often sold out, earning a loyal following among design lovers. Now, Bottega Veneta has channeled the same allure into its debut fine jewellery collection, unveiling three families – Drop, Primavera, and Catena – that embody the House’s iconic craft under the visionary direction of Matthieu Blazy.
The Drop family carries forward the celebrated motif into fine jewellery, reimagining it with a refined touch. Bracelets, rings, and earrings emerge as bold sculptures of light and shadow, crafted in yellow gold or shimmering white gold, each set with hand-selected diamonds. Primavera, true to its name, captures the delicacy of wildflowers, where set diamonds and organic forms bring the natural world to life. In rings, necklaces, and earrings, the intricate design flourishes with a rare softness, while also offering versatility for layering or a standalone statement.
Drawing inspiration from antique Venetian chandeliers, the Catena family brings a touch of Baroque romance, evolving Bottega Veneta’s signature Fin and Twisted lines into bracelets that link into statement necklaces. Each piece is an ode to Venetian history, capturing the glow of chandeliers in expert casting techniques that feel at once opulent and contemporary.
Rooted in the heritage of Vicenza, Italy’s “City of Gold,” this collection pays homage to a centuries-old legacy in jewelry-making. Each piece is crafted in partnership with the city’s finest artisans, whose expertise dates back to the 14th century. For Blazy, it’s the perfect setting to realise a vision of fine jewellery that embodies Bottega Veneta’s ethos, where tradition meets a new frontier in design.
With the debut of fine jewellery, Bottega Veneta offers a modern heirloom for those who value timeless elegance and artful luxury, exclusively available from March 2025, at Bottega Veneta's newest Sydney flagship boutique on 74 Castlereagh Street.
