From the watery reflections of Venice to writhing sea creatures or volcanic explosions, Autore's Alessio Boschi is fascinated by both the big statements produced by Nature such as volcanic explosions down to little sea-bed dwellers. As well as using Autore's pick of the pearl crop, turn over each piece and the structure, or gallery, is a work of art in its own right. Here carved golden creatures cavort, and often there is a hidden jewel, just for the wearer to know it's there. Some pieces come apart, like the spectacular pearl, sapphire and Paraiba tourmaline necklace shown above.
