1884 Collection
1884 Collection brandishes the powerful raw beauty of tagua nuts with 100% Italian design and craftsmanship.
1884 Collection treats vegetal ivory like a precious material: it respects the tagua seed’s natural form, preserving its round shape and complementing its waxy luster and rough exteri- or with a polished silver setting. In this way, a simple, natu- ral, and abundant resource achieves the status of a precious stone. It is a very unusual approach for fine jewelry, but one that yields something truly and unmistakably original. The exclusive capsule collection, made entirely by hand, is the culmination of quintessential Italian good taste and su- perb craftsmanship. To further elevate each piece, the brand is partnering with Franchi Argentieri, one of Rome’s most renowned silversmiths. 1884 Collection is also proud of its strong Italian history; established by Alberto Petochi, the heir of a well-known jewelry dynasty in the capital, it has be- come famous for its jewelry set with ancient Roman coins. Today, 1884 Collection’s storied past and futuristic vision of mindful luxury have found each other. This capsule collec- tion underscores the brand’s deep and lasting commitment to sustainable luxury and environmental preservation, while demonstrating its ability to innovate and create completely new and meaningful pieces. As Alberto Petochi himself says, «Using tagua nuts as luxury elements gave me the chance to show the public how precious the environment is and also offer it something truly striking and new».
