[014] RING IN OXIDIZED ALPACCA, SILVER 925, GOLD AND DIAMOND

Pilgiò jewelry pieces are objects of research developed through the relationship between form, matter, and surface. Each model is born from a precise composition of volumes, openings, stones, and materials, built to give the jewel a sculptural presence and a recognizable identity. The direct, hands-on process makes each piece slightly different. Grooves, thicknesses, hues, and surface characteristics may vary, without altering the model's identity. These differences are not imperfections, but an integral part of the jewel and its material nature.

Each piece of jewelry is designed and made entirely within the Pilgiò studio. The process runs through every stage of construction, from defining the shape to working the metals, through to setting the stones and the final finish. The material is sculpted, engraved, welded, oxidized, and transformed through handwork, thermal treatments, and processes developed in the studio. During the process, marks, reliefs, chromatic variations, and controlled irregularities emerge that tell the story of how the object was built. The surface is not simply decorated, but constructed together with the shape. Every trace of the process remains visible and becomes part of the jewel's identity, which can continue to evolve over time through use and contact with the skin.

Ring in oxidized Alpacca, with a geometric, open structure made up of small plates, reliefs, and small voids.

The surface is material and irregular, marked by green and turquoise oxidation that alternates with darker, burnished, or metallic areas.

The raised parts may gain a slight shine with use, creating a natural contrast between the oxidized patina and the brighter points of the metal.

The shape retains an essential, structured character, with vertical lines, openings, and varying thicknesses that make each ring solid yet not uniform.

Oxidized Alpacca is a living material. With use, contact with the skin, and time, it can change tone, soften certain shades, gain shine in some areas, or develop a personal patina. Each piece will therefore have its own history.

The shades of oxidation are unique and unrepeatable. They can be recreated in a similar way, but never identically.

Handmade in our workshop in Milan. Each piece may show variations in color, surface, oxidation, and details.

Available from size 10 to 24 IT (other sizes on request). The width and thickness of the profile are calibrated to the chosen size for optimal comfort. Since this is a band ring, we recommend going up one size (or half a size for warmer seasons). We offer assistance with size selection in-store or via video call.

The first adjustment is included in the price and is carried out exclusively at our workshop in Milan (by appointment). To ensure precision, the adjustment (enlarging or reducing) requires the client's presence in the workshop for the entire duration of the work.

If the item is in stock, shipping occurs within 2–3 business days. If the item is not immediately available in-store, processing time is at least 4 weeks (30 days) from payment.

Insurance on the value of the jewel is always included for the entire duration of transport.

Exchanges and returns are possible within the time frame indicated at checkout. Customized or bespoke jewelry has its own terms and conditions.

Over time, the oxidation changes and adapts to your lifestyle. Daily use will tend to polish the raised areas, while the grooves will retain their original dark shade.

Daily cleaning: simply wash with warm water and neutral soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh, abrasive products or thermal shock.

We offer a free check-up at our store at Via Caminadella 6 in Milan, which includes a stone setting check and professional ultrasonic cleaning. A full restoration of the original finish ("Muto") is a paid service, priced based on the piece.

HOW DOES THE COLOR CHANGE OVER TIME?

Metals, malleable by nature, and surface oxidation evolve with wear and with the jewelry's periods of rest: where there is friction, the surface smooths out and lightens; in the recesses, deeper shadows remain.

CAN I HAVE MORE DIAMONDS OR A DIFFERENT CARAT WEIGHT?

No, the model is fixed and does not allow for changes in carat weight, number, or position of the stones.

CAN IT BE RESIZED AFTER PURCHASE?

Yes. The first resizing is included in the purchase: we perform a laser weld.
