stile_manifattura — Amantea · Calabria
In Amantea, on the Calabrian Tyrrhenian coast, a workshop turns period coins into handcrafted jewellery. The starting point is always an object that has already lived a life: 925 silver, history stamped into the metal, workmanship that admits no series.
On the Tyrrhenian coast of Cosenza, where the morning light reveals every surface with absolute precision, Amanthia Gioielli works a raw material that time has already ennobled: original period coins in 925 silver, joined by pearls and turquoise chosen for their intrinsic quality.
At the workbench of the Amantea workshop, every piece is born from a manual gesture that cannot be replicated. The coins are worked by hand, transformed into pieces of jewellery without losing their numismatic identity: each jewel carries with it a story that predates the workshop.
Fine pliers, two-tone silver, the profile of a 500-lira coin on dark velvet: Amanthia's collections range from the Collezione Monete to the devotional line dedicated to San Francesco di Paola, through to the Stelle Marine, inspired by the Tyrrhenian Sea visible from the street.
At the Amantea shop or through the online store, each piece awaits someone who can tell the difference between a jewel that was produced and one that was built.
