Siderae was born from the collaboration of Adele Piatti and her partner Roberto Ortenzi. Together, they aimed to create fine jewelry as a celebration of authentic living and the beauty of the unexpected.
Their creations are more than jewels, they are miniature sculptures in gold and gemstones that stand as a timeless testament to the courage of those who embrace the unpredictable nature of their unique stories.
EXPANDING our universe
Adele and Roberto's approach to jewelry is deeply rooted in their shared life journeys. Born in Italy, where creativity and craftsmanship intertwine with a rich cultural history, they grew up with a profound appreciation for handcrafting and the magic found in every tiny detail.
With a yearning to expand their worldviews, they absorbed artistic influences from across the globe, transforming meaningful encounters and travels into the wilderness in a source of inspiration, ultimately becoming genuine citizens of the world.
EMBRACING the unexpected
After years in corporate management, their eclectic sensibilities serendipitously led them to the ancient art of goldsmithing. In jewelry, they discovered a timeless language blending material and meaning, forging intimate and eternal connections.
Fascinated by physically linking art and the human experience, they began crafting a personal and contemporary approach to fine jewelry, pushing beyond traditional boundaries.
As a result, they managed to independently develop a goldsmithing technique they named Liquid Setting - the beating heart of their creative flow - where molten gold envelops gemstones, allowing them to rise like shimmering islands in a golden sea.
Our work, much like a jazz improvisation, is a chaotic yet harmonious conversation between technical precision, intuition and free interaction with precious materials.
STARING at the stars
In their studio, Adele and Roberto infuse Sideræ's artistic vision into every creation, constantly refining their craft and the Liquid Setting technique.
Fueled by the unpredictability of the process itself, the Liquid Setting gives life to unique and unrepeatable pieces, capturing the essence of organic and raw elegance.
This journey of discovery, transformation and growth makes Sideræ jewels powerful symbols of originality and evolution, that invite us to lift our gaze to the stars, to the unknown worlds within and beyond ourselves, opening up to the unforeseen and seeking beauty in our own and others’ diversity.
