The Wave Short necklace is born from five lines that start together and choose different lengths. The steel springs fall one after another, drawing five free, progressive curves.
On each line, a small cube in rhodium-plated brass introduces a precise point. The geometry interrupts the continuity of the curve and makes each path legible. It is this contrast that gives Wave its identity: the flexibility of steel meets the measure of the cube.
The lines can move, draw closer and change their relationship to one another. The design is not still, yet it keeps a recognisable structure.
In the 70-centimetre Short version, the five curves stay closer to the body and build a concentrated sign. In the Long version they unfold further and accompany movement with greater breadth. The spherical magnetic clasp opens and closes in a single gesture.
Wave speaks of an adult freedom: not all going in the same direction, yet continuing to feel part of the same path. Handmade in the Ellesanti Space in Padua.

It arrives in its Ellesanti fabric pouch, ready to give to someone you care about.

Stainless steel

Strong and stable, it asks for very little: water, soap and a soft cloth.

How to wear it. Springs and spirals can catch in hair and loose-knit jumpers: put it on and take it off calmly. Open spring steel only as much as you need to put it on.
How to clean it. Lukewarm water and neutral soap, then dry with a soft cloth. On gold-coloured parts, only a dry cloth.
How to store it. In its box, away from other jewellery. Springs keep their shape best when nothing presses on them.

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.

Collana Wave Corta in acciaio, indossata

With you every day

Wave draws five lines on the body without weighing it down. In the Short version, the curves build a more compact presence. The Long version widens the design and follows movement more closely. The rhodium-plated cubes spark small points of light. On a dark surface, the lines become more graphic. With essential shapes, the lightness of the structure comes through.

The material, up close.

Wave Short is built from five slender steel springs, 70 centimetres in length. Spring steel combines flexibility and shape memory, allowing the lines to follow your movement and naturally return to their curve. Each spring keeps an independent path and a different length.

Rhodium-plated brass cubes introduce small geometric elements along the lines. The clean surface of the cube meets the continuous surface of the steel and concentrates the light at precise points.

A spherical magnetic clasp completes the design, made to open and close with a simple gesture. A detail that combines practicality and aesthetic coherence, in harmony with the form of the jewel.

This is the path of Wave Short

Every form is born from a choice

The question
Can I choose a different direction and remain myself?
The choice
I follow the direction I feel is mine.
Translation
Five lines follow different paths.
Result
Every line finds its own direction.

Wave is born from five lines that share an origin and follow different paths. None has to coincide with another. Each curve finds its own space and carries on. The small cubes mark precise points along the way. Freedom takes form in the possibility of choosing your own direction.
