Laboratorio / Atelier

There is a pedestrian street that joins the Chiaia funicular and takes you to Via dei Mille, the street with the most elegant boutiques in Naples. Here, a stone's throw from Piazza Amedeo, you can find the art of Barbarulo Napoli 1894. Cristiano Barbarulo will welcome you by telling you about his passion, inherited from generations of jewelers (it all began in 1894) which has now become a continuous search: "to risk everything in 15 millimetres”. From the button cufflink to the one made with the fabrics of the jackets worn by Toni Servillo in the Oscar-winning film La Grande Bellezza by Paolo Sorrentino, up to the creations inspired by art and unique collectible pieces. Between a golden San Gennaro and the sparkle of the windows in which the precious stones shine in the boutique, to the laboratory where the jewel-cufflinks are designed and made by hand.

Piazza Amedeo, 16/i - Passeggiata Colonna, Napoli (Napoli)

The link between the precious items and the Barbarulo family begins at the end of the nineteenth century, from jewelers in Naples to the ancient jewels sold in Capri. Then the return to the city through the passion for Cristiano Barbarulo's cufflinks. They are not just cufflinks, those designed and handmade by the artisans in the laboratory next to Piazza Amedeo, they are stories that are told in just 15 millimetres. The love for this niche of high jewelery is cultivated with years of ancient collections and officially develops in 2012, the year in which Cristiano Barbarulo leaves the bank and dedicates himself to how to entertain and leave a message with stones set in metal. There is the cufflink dedicated to Méliès' A Trip to the Moon, the one worn by Geoffrey Rush in the film "The Best Offer" by Giuseppe Tornatore or the personalized one that will go on the tailored shirt on the other side of the world. A journey into the microcosm of cufflinks, looking for the one you prefer in the laboratory boutique with the family safe, the golden San Gennaro and father Raffaele's goldsmith's table. Cristiano, on the other hand, doesn't know how to choose. For him, they're all a piece of his heart.
