Chiara Voliani before CV
I started working very young in two important boutiques in Pisawe were dealing with research brands that have become very well-known, I was in contact with fashion every day which is still a great passion of mine.
After 20 years, however, I was looking for new motivations.
Meeting with Giuliana Michelotti
On one of the many days spent in the boutique, I met Giuliana, there as a customer, and soon a pleasant friendship blossomed between us.
One day, she decided to show me the objects she created. I’ve never been a jewelry’s lover, I didn't care for traditional pieces. However, her jewelry instantly captivated me. I immediately liked their departure from traditional jewelry or even costume jewelry. Instead, they were unique art pieces.
From this meeting, I made the decision to leave the security of my job in Pisa and accept Giuliana's offer to manage the sales of her jewelry in Italy. It was a challenging product to market, but I enthusiastically accepted the challenge and joined her in New York.
The American market was and still is economically more dynamic than the Italian one, allowing me to connect with art galleries, museums, and showrooms. It became clear to me from the beginning that the best way to sell these objects was to draw from my thirty years of experience in retail. However, I devised a new sales approach, instead of having a physical location, I chose to collaborate with various exhibition venues to create interesting synergies.

My sculpture jewels
I prefer rough stones but I go with my gut: I pick them according to shapes and colours, how I see them and imagine them becoming jewels.
Stones attract me.
Chiara Voliani Gioielli Scultura
Six years ago, Giuliana, struck by an illness, was forced to abruptly stop the production of jewelry.
I had never made jewelry before, nor did I know the production process, but actually making them was a different story. So, after ending my relationship with the Michelotti family, I began to study to understand how to create them.
The electroplating company I collaborated with helped me in this study process, and so I created the first prototypes.
In 2019 I trademarked my brand CV , and from the experience gained during the years I managed Giuliana's sales, I further strengthened my way of working and selling.
My personality and my jewelry are closely intertwined.
I conceive, create, and wear each piece, which is why the communication of my creations is extremely linked to my own persona, personality, and the charisma I instill in each work.
Sales opportunities
I do not sell my jewelry online.
Sul mio sito non troverete né link di acquisto né immagini con prezzi in chiaro.
Ho scelto di andare contro corrente e di parlare del valore dei miei gioielli di persona, seguendo la modalità di vendita che mi sono inventata: mediante exhibits around Italy, and beyond, which can be accessed by invitation and appointment only.
To fully grasp the soul of my jewels, it is important for me that they are seen, touched, observed and that emotion is created as happens in front of works of art. This is why I carefully choose the spaces that host my sculpture jewels and where I exhibit and sell my entire collection directly. They are realities that I feel close to me, akin, with whom I share values, ideals and inspirations.
The only way to know the schedule of my exhibitions is to subscribe to my newsletters and contact me or the space that will host me (via email or WhatsApp) to request a private appointment, I love dedicating an hour of time to those who choose to come visit me.
