Presentation of the Gemme collection by Rodolfo Dordoni

RODOLFO DORDONI AND NEROSICILIA

Gemme

In the world of art and design, there is something magical about merging seemingly contrasting materials to create something unique and unexpected. This is precisely what happens in the collection that enhances the distinctive qualities of lava stone, known as "partridge eye," enriched with recycled glass drippings.

This lava stone, renowned for its extreme porosity, becomes the ideal canvas for delicate glass castings. The glass seeps through its pores, creating an extraordinary effect that transcends the mere fusion of materials: it transforms into a work of art, celebrating both natural beauty and human ingenuity.

Lava, naturally light and uniform in color, transforms into a kaleidoscope of shades as pigments in the glass become trapped in its cracks and fissures. These pigments imbue the stone with a range of hues, creating a stunning visual effect that captivates both the eye and the imagination.

But there is more: these precious gems embedded in the lava stone are not merely decorative elements, they tell a story. They are the product of a creative process that blends tradition with innovation, nature with technology, resulting in unique and unrepeatable pieces.

This collection is not only a testament to the beauty and versatility of lava stone and recycled glass, but also a tribute to human creativity and the ability to transform nature's gifts into something extraordinary. Each piece is a work of art, carrying with it the history and soul of the materials from which it was crafted, making every room unique and captivating.
