First presented at Basel 2011, Carlo Palmiero's NEW World collection is now accessible at Masterpiece by king fook. Comprising the PUPPIES and ADULTS collections, Palmiero's latest concoctions are at when inspired by nature as well as the Asian idea of yin and yang. The five classical elements of Chinese culture - metal, wood, water, fire and earth - are embedded within the kaleidoscopic colors. Palmiero's predilection for gold - "it will be the most malleable metal around" - lends his pieces their fluidity.
Consisting of 3 adorable bear cubs - BEBA, BUBI and BERRI, the diamond-encrusted PUPPIES collection aims to "awaken the affection and tenderness within us", Palmiero says in an interview with Luxury-insider, "I need to present some thing more good amidst the financial and debt crises".
Whimsical and irreverent, the lure of the GIULLARI, i.e. Joker collection, harks back to the Italian Commedia dell'arte of the 16th and 17th century.
Accessible in two editions, Palmiero ushers inside the Year of the Dragon (2012) with all the Dragon collection.
