Bullets (like guns) are not a new subject in the fashion world and street jewelery.
Rather it is just one of the icons typical of a world and we see them often shiny and glossy on neck of gangsta rappers, from the neighborhood up star from international caliber.
But when I found myself in front of this brand, Balasanta, I stopped. This hit me. Before no jewelery brand has ever expressed so precisely in front of the bullet so that it becomes a single subject and protagonist of his own creations.
Perhaps a limit? Here appears a big selling point, as capable of giving consistency and brand recognition.
But a ‘else struck me about Balasanta: the patina highly crafted and’ antique ‘ flavor, I would say vintage that emerges from the beautiful photographs of the catalog. Something other than super shiny and sparkling chains that, as mentioned before, we are used to.
A touch of masterly craftsmanship made in Italy ‘that combines in a object typically USA.
And the result is a brand so interesting, how to keep an ey on. Official Facebook page HERE.
