Carrera y Carrera
Legendary Spanish jewelry house Carrera y Carrera is based in Madrid but its sculptural and wholly distinctive pieces are known all over the world. Devotees of the company’s luxurious rings, necklaces, bracelets and other adornments have included royalty and a range of high-profile pop culture figures, and its artisans’ expertise in jewelry design spans a history of more than 130 years.
The origins of Carrera y Carrera can be traced to a small shop in 1885 founded by Madrid native Saturio Carrera. A student of lapidary — the practice of carving and shaping stones and minerals — Saturio established a modest jewelry business, and later, his son, José, who studied jewelry design in Paris, took up the family business and opened a new shop near the old center of Spain’s capital city. José passed the firm onto his nephews, and Carrera y Carrera garnered international acclaim when the Spanish royal family awarded them their first royal commission in 1960 to craft a bridal tiara to be presented to Doña Fabiola de Mora y Aragón on her wedding day. This tiara — the house’s most prestigious piece to date — raised Carrera y Carrera’s profile significantly.
During the 1970s, the luxury house first presented their designs at the epicenter of international jewelry, Baselworld. Carrera y Carrera became a household name for Americans of means thanks to a distribution partnership that landed its offerings in the Cellini boutique at New York City’s Waldorf Astoria. Celebrities such as Sofía Vergara, Jennifer Lopez and Madonna have all worn custom Carrera y Carrera jewels on the red carpet, and the brand’s work has been exhibited at the Armoury Chamber in the Kremlin. Each of the brand’s unique designs for watches and other jewelry — which frequently draw on animal forms, mythology and art — are still made by hand, just as its founder intended.

- Banded Rodochrosite 18kt Yellow Gold Contemporary Pendant NecklaceBy Nathalie JeanLocated in Milan, LombardiaDISCO is a contemporary pendant necklace in 18kt yellow gold and banded rodochrosite. Rarely found in its pure state, Rhodochrosite is a predominantly rose-red coloured mineral. The more common “banded” form is adorned with linear patterns in stunning hues that range from pink, cherry-red and yellow to grey, cinnamon-brown and white. A work of perfection crafted by nature, it is further enhanced when backlit, some areas becoming translucent, others as transparent as rock crystal. For this collection, a simple polished disc of the crystal is attached to a minimalistic bail that allows it to slide along the gold chain of the necklace or around the gold circles of the earrings, spinning hypnotically on itself in the process. Disco—the Italian word for a disc shape—also means a record, a disc with a hole in the middle, just like these mini pendants. More universally, Disco refers to the 1970s music stylistically based on psychedelic soul… which brings us full circle back to Rhodochrosite’s psychedelic motifs! Adjustable length at 395 and 420mm.
