Author: Codognato, AlessandroTucked behind St. Mark’s Square since 1866, the family-run Codognato jewellery shop has been crafting exquisite, enticing pieces from a vortex of eccen tric motifs – Byzantine, Roman and Renaissance-inspired serpent bracelets, cameos and, most famously, skull rings and earrings inspired by 17th-century memento mori images. With an alchemical mix of precious stones and mysterious symbols, Codognato jewellery is as elegant as it is morbid.Edited by Eduardo Cicelyn, Angelo Flaccavento, Alessandro Codognato.ISBN 9791254633168.
