Gianfranco Frattini
Gianfranco Frattini (1926-2004) was an Italian architect and designer who created jewelry designs as well as furniture, lighting, and other decorative objects. He studied architecture at the Politecnico di Milano and began his career in the 1950s working for the Olivetti typewriter company. He later worked with other prominent Italian design firms such as Cassina and Artemide.
Frattini's jewelry designs are known for their minimalist and modernist aesthetic. He often used simple geometric shapes and materials such as silver, gold, and enamel. His designs were exhibited at international art and design exhibitions and have been collected by museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
