My name is Massimo Moreale. I have been a goldsmith for over thirty years.
Over the years my closest clients have asked me to create works for them that allowed me to give free reign to my imagination. They were designed as jewelry, but many have pointed out that they actually resemble tiny paintings.
Recently I have reworked the drawings, developed shapes and volumes, studied finishes and experimented with polish, gilding and oxidation and, above all, I let my imagination be my guide.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

My years as an artisanal goldsmith have allowed me to perfect the techniques of working with metal\u00a0<\/span>(<\/span>www.silverleaf.it<\/u><\/span>)<\/span>, including metals deemed less precious. Now, I am using those technical skills to realize more creative projects.<\/span><\/p>

What all my objects have in common is the total lack of pigmented color. Instead, I manipulate raw material to reveal and highlight the colors and textures that already exist within them. By oxidizing the metals, whether they be gold, silver, copper, bronze, or titanium, I am able to reveal colors that come from their natural composition. My job is to uncover the range of texture and color within each material.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Attention to detail is in the nature of a goldsmith and is fundamental to how I create art. The polishing, satin-finishing, and engraving enhance the colors of the metals, giving way to the most comprehensive compositions that I am able to create.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Silver is rich in color. An absurd statement to those who view it in its normal state. In reality, this metal takes well to oxidation, exposing an array of colors: yellow, burnt sienna, turquoise, teal, black, each color telling a different story.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The only color in nature, along with copper, that has a distinctive color; yellow. I like to use it in all its variations; 24k which relay a deep yellow, to yellow with shades of green, or rose gold.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A low grade metal, with a natural pink tone that is sometimes infused with blue and green which are brought out with simple elements such as salt, vinegar, and ammonia.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Rhodium and ruthenium plating, which is made possible by bathing a base metal in an electro current bath, gives pure silver vibrant colors. The superimposition of rhodium gives a range of colors from deep blue to aqua, and ruthenium gives us a shiny, absolute black.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
