The Due a Due Rhodium necklace is built on a single rule: the materials come in pairs and never mix. Two strands run parallel and cross at regular intervals, forming a sequence of diamond shapes. In each one, the rhodium-plated brass faces the rubber: one rigid and bright, the other soft and matt. The metal stops exactly where the rubber begins, keeping the distinction between the two visible.

The empty space is also part of the design: it keeps the form open and lets the light through. There are no visible joins and no clasps to fasten. The geometry continues uninterrupted, without showing where it begins or ends.

It can be worn long or wrapped several times — 110 centimetres and 38 grams — the pattern stretches out or becomes denser.

Rubber

Soft and light, with shape memory: with a little care it stays as it was on the first day.

How to wear it. Keep it away from alcohol, acetone and solvents, and from strong heat. Many hours of direct sun will dull the colour over time.
How to clean it. A cloth dampened with lukewarm water and a drop of neutral soap, then dry it straight away. If it looks dull over time, it is the skin's natural oils: wipe it with a degreaser, then dry it with a soft cloth.
How to store it. Lay it flat or loosely coiled, never tightly folded, away from radiators and sunny windows.

Rhodium-plated brass

A thin layer of rhodium protects the brass and keeps it bright: clean it only when dry.

How to wear it. Perfume, sweat, chlorine and sea water wear away the rhodium plating: put it on after perfume and take it off before the pool, the sea and the gym.
How to clean it. A soft, dry cloth, ideally microfibre. No silver cleaners, polishing pastes or sponges: they remove the rhodium plating.
How to store it. In its box, away from other jewellery: metals scratch each other.

For all jewellery

How to wear it. Put it on last, after creams, perfume and hairspray. Take it off before showering, swimming in the sea or pool, exercising and going to bed.
How to clean it. When you take it off, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth: a few seconds are enough.
How to store it. Keep it in its box, in a dry drawer, away from your other jewellery. The bathroom, with its steam, is the least suitable place.

Due a Due Rhodium Necklace

Chosen by those who select design for museums, from MoMA to MAXXI.

With you every day

Light on the body and with no clasp, it slips on over the head and can be worn long or wrapped twice. The diamonds draw close, overlap and change their arrangement as you move. The brass catches the light here and there, while the rubber stays matt, creating a discreet alternation. You arrange it with a gesture and it naturally finds its position on the body.

The material, up close.

Rhodium-plated brass and rubber remain distinct even to the touch: 110 centimetres long, 38 grams. The brass is rigid and cool, the rubber soft and matt. Its natural grip on the skin helps the necklace hold the position in which it is worn.

The transition between the two materials can be felt under the fingers: a clean boundary that makes physical the very rule on which the piece is built. The lightness of the rubber balances the presence of the brass, giving structure without weighing it down. The rhodium plating protects the metal over time.

Two materials with opposite qualities thus work together: one gives light and defines the sign, the other gives flexibility and follows the body.
