Period: Late 19th Century Geoffrey C. Munn, Le bijoutiers Castellani et Giuliano Retour à l'antique au XIX siècle, 1983. Carlo Giuliano è stato un orafo italiano. Nato nel Regno delle due Sicilie e precisamente a Napoli nel 1831, dopo aver iniziato a lavorare nell'oreficeria di Alessandro Castellani si trasferì a Londra dove lavorò per le principali gioiellierie londinesi come Robert Phillips e Hancocks & Co. A quel tempo, gli scavi archeologici in Grecia ed in Egitto portarono, tra l'aristocrazia e la borghesia, la moda di motivi classici e rinascimentali nell'abbigliamento e nella gioielleria. Da ciò nacque una passione per gli spettacolari gioielli neo-classici, creati da Giuliano, che lo resero famoso. Carlo Giuliano was an Italian goldsmith. Born in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and precisely in Naples in 1831, after starting to work in the goldsmith's shop of Alessandro Castellani he moved to London where he worked for the main London jewelers such as Robert Phillips and Hancocks & Co. At that time, the archaeological excavations in Greece and Egypt brought, among the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie, the fashion of classical and Renaissance motifs in clothing and jewellery. From this was born a passion for the spectacular neo-classical jewels, created by Giuliano, which made him famous. Follow on instagram @bernardoantichita
