lily jewellery manufacturing Back to the Future: Giovanni Corvaja’s impossible gold creations

works from his studio in the small medieval town of Todi tucked away in the rolling Umbrian countryside. From here, Corvaja weaves gold and platinum into objects that have never before been imagined. Corvaja projects the traditional craft of goldsmithing into the 21st century, offering a vision of a future where air and gold are one. A master of contemporary craftsmanship, Corvaja is an intrepid explorer pushing the boundaries of his noble craft and he meticulously creates one piece at a time. I will be interviewing Giovanni Corvaja in his laboratorio on Tuesday 12th May at 15:30 London time.

Housed in a vaulted, stone-walled building, his atelier is unlike anything else you are likely to have seen before. Working in a white lab coat wearing wire-framed professorial glasses, the studio is part traditional goldsmiths workshop with a bench and reassuring antique looking tools. It is also part science laboratory packed with improbably complex machines. At its heart is a pot-bellied steel orb called VC3, the size of a small submarine that sits atop a tower of twisting metal tubes, medidores, liquid gas tanks and valves, generously equipped with bright yellow ‘Liquid Nitrogen!’ warning signs. Corvaja has to step onto a ladder to gaze into the porthole of his self-styled vacuum chamber working for thousands of hours on end to create a single object. The conditions in the orb mimic those of space, a fitting analogy of Corvaja’s time-warping ways.

This alone should tell you that Corvaja is in a category of his own. A tireless experimenter melding science and traditional craftsmanship to create riddles of sublime beauty in gold. Futuristic as the techniques may be, he is an artist with a soul taking craft to astounding new levels of perfection. In Corvaja’s hand, gold becomes soft as fabric, 100th of the width of a human hair and as soft as fur. In his quest to take gold to places it has never before ventured, Corvaja is constantly evolving his techniques. The latest involves a miniature lattice-work of ultra-fine gold wire, which under the extreme conditions of the vacuum chamber, the gold adheres by contact alone.
