The Play Long necklace is born from a continuous line of spring steel coated in rubber. Around the neck it forms a soft curve. Then the two ends fall down the body at different lengths, reaching 85 centimetres.
The ABS beads mark precise points. One accompanies the shorter end. Two, of different sizes, define the longer one.
Asymmetry builds the character of the necklace. The two parts remain different, yet together they find a visual balance.
The rubber keeps the line essential and matt. The beads introduce volume and a compact surface, creating a sharp contrast.
Play Long is light and immediate: 48 grams distributed along its whole length, and no clasp to fasten. Its form takes shape directly on the body.

Material: ABS and rubber
Length: 85
Production: Handmade in Italy
Safety: Hypoallergenic and nickel-free

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.

ABS

A light, smooth material with a solid colour: clean it with a damp cloth.

How to wear it. Keep it away from acetone, nail polish remover and alcohol: they damage the surface. Hard knocks can mark it.
How to clean it. A cloth dampened with water and neutral soap, then dry it.
How to store it. In its box, away from direct sun: after many hours in the sun the colour may change.

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.

Play Long Necklace

black69 €

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

With you every day

Play Long rests around the neck and falls in two different lengths.

The spheres naturally follow the movement and keep the asymmetry clear.

The essential line gives presence without weighing it down. It pairs easily with simple shapes, from everyday wear to more formal occasions.

The material, up close.

The Play Long necklace is born from the meeting of rubber, spring steel and ABS beads: 85 centimetres long, 48 grams.

Rubber is a strong, flexible material, able to hold its form while adapting softly to the neck. It is the dark base that defines the lines of the necklace, making it pleasant to the touch and light to wear. Inside, spring steel gives the right rigidity and shape memory, ensuring that the piece always sits in the best way, without clasps.

The beads are made of ABS, a light, durable polymer. Their smooth, glossy surface catches the light delicately, adding a point of visual reflection that enhances the essential design of the necklace. This combination of materials creates a piece of jewellery that is both solid and light, a sign of playful presence in your everyday life.
