The FOPE Solo jewellery collection combines the Italian Maison’s legendary Flex’it technology with smaller proportions to deliver a range of everyday-worthy, flexible 18ct gold necklaces, rings, cufflinks, earrings and bracelets that mould to the body like water.
FOPE has a remarkable history that extends back to 1929 when a master goldsmith named Umberto Cazzola opened his first workshop in Vicenza, Italy. After his passing, Umberto passed the company onto his son Odino who transformed the brand from a small boutique into a worldwide phenomenon. He did this by investing heavily into several new technologies including a technique which allowed him to create the first flexible metal strap by FOPE. As the years went on, FOPE continued to innovate with flexible gold jewellery and in 1985, the Italian jewellery brand launched the legendary Novecento mesh chain.
Renowned for its remarkable flexibility and comfort, the Novecento chain forced FOPE further into the spotlight and by 2007, FOPE recreated the original design to launch the FOPE Flex’it jewellery collection. The handcrafted gold chains incorporated the brand’s patented ‘roll on’ mesh which was rendered entirely flexible thanks to tiny gold springs hidden between each link. Every FOPE Flex’it jewellery design is stretchy and incredibly comfortable because of this, making them must-have accessories for wearing every day. Since 2007, the FOPE Flex’it jewellery line has expanded to include several different styles. There’s designs like the Flex’it Eka with diamond-adorned contemporary elements, the Flex’it Love Nest with its perfectly round chain and the Flex’it Panorama with a wider, refined chain. Of them all, the perfect place to start, for someone new to the fine jewellery world, is the FOPE Flex’it Solo jewellery collection.
Standing out from its brothers and sisters for its contemporary slant and smaller proportions, FOPE Flex’it Solo jewellery is effortless to wear on the daily. Stack together the slender bracelets, layer up the Flex’it Solo necklaces across your chest and line-up the 18ct gold earrings up your lobe. Flexible, beautiful and comfortable, you’ll never want to take FOPE Solo jewellery off your body. There is no shortage of designs to choose from either with gorgeous rings, bracelets, necklaces, cufflinks and earrings crafted from 18 carat gold. You can choose from yellow gold, rose gold or white gold with many of the chains adorned with plain gold rondels or rondels dressed in white or black diamonds.
As well as your timeless, single-chained FOPE Flex’it Solo necklaces and bracelets, there are also several designs for those that are looking for something a little more unconventional. The FOPE Solo Double Bracelets are a fantastic example of this, combining two contrasting coloured flexible chains by a bold, diamond bedazzled rondel. There are also glamourous FOPE Flex’it Solo Lariat necklaces which hang gracefully down your chest, evoking the stylings of flapper girls from the 1920’s and sophisticated FOPE Solo Hoop Earrings dressed in up to three diamond decorated rondels.
