When Pomellato says it’s releasing a “jewelry manifesto,” you might brace for buzzwords. But Collezione 1967 isn’t just another high jewelry drop—it’s a full-throttle declaration of what Milanese luxury looks and feels like when the rules are thrown out the window.
This latest high jewelry collection doesn’t whisper opulence; it sings it in rich gold harmonies, explosive color palettes, and structural drama that feels more architectural than ornamental. Across 75 handcrafted pieces, Pomellato pulls from three defining decades in its history—the radical ’70s, the fearless ’80s, and the chromatic chaos of the ’90s—to craft a lineup that’s equal parts heritage and rebellion.
For Pomellato’s creative director Vincenzo Castaldo, Collezione 1967 is about rediscovering the brand’s pulse.
“It’s a powerful return to our roots”
The ‘70s chain revolution leads the charge, not as nostalgia, but as reassertion. The once-underestimated link becomes the lead character in designs like the Blue Chain Cascade—where Ceylon sapphires and cascading white diamond pavé transform utility into fantasy—or the Yellow Diamond Moon, which tempers its sensual fluidity with the gravitational pull of gourmette chains and yellow diamonds. These aren’t accessories; they’re structures with attitude.
If the chains seduce, the ‘80s-era silhouettes shout. Boldness takes form in 18 sculptural designs like the Asymmetrico Tanzanite—a wildly irregular stone nestled in a golden clash of diamond pavé plates that took 700 hours to perfect. Then there’s the Zigzag Supreme, a kinetic masterpiece that dances between chaos and control, pairing precision-cut tanzanites with undulating forms that defy predictability. Even the classic rivière is reborn: green tourmaline or rubellite appears suspended in diamonds, as if sketched by someone who’s grown tired of balance and decided asymmetry is the new elegance.
And then, of course, comes the color. The ’90s left an indelible stain of flamboyance on everything it touched, and Pomellato leaned in. The final chapter of Collezione 1967 is pure chromatic excess, featuring 37 technicolor marvels that celebrate the maison’s obsession with light, tone, and saturation. The Lagoon Bavarole, a cascading necklace of 47 green tourmalines, feels like a waterfall sculpted from precious stones. Marvelous Griffe, a moodboard of ten rose gold earring sets, plays with playful duality and gemstone synergy, while Iconica Extreme turns classic craftsmanship into spectacle with dazzling emeralds and diamond punctuation. And Precious Snap Hook—a pavé-set lariat necklace—feels like the brand’s mic drop: elegance reimagined for the unruly.
What’s clear from Collezione 1967 is this: Pomellato isn’t interested in playing by luxury’s old rules. The Milanese brand has always blurred lines—between function and fantasy, tradition and rebellion—and this high jewelry collection sharpens that blur into something bolder. It’s not just high jewelry. It’s high attitude.
