Essenza Black necklace and bracelet by Ziio

ESSENZA

One design. Six colours.

A note from the Designer

For me, Essenza is an expression of connection and balance. Inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh’s notion of interbeing, each jewel takes shape as a network, where every stone is linked to the others. I create these small, intimate worlds as symbolic objects, open to the meaning you give them.

The meaning behind Essenza

Read the story behind Essenza

The Essenza collection by Ziio embodies the connections that bind us—seen and unseen alike. It draws inspiration from the deeply tangible concept of “interbeing,” as expressed in the thought of Thich Nhat Hanh.

Each piece is conceived as a network, where every stone is intricately linked to the others, and every element finds its precise place. The composition unfolds through a delicate balance, in which each part contributes to a refined and harmonious whole.

We, too, exist within a network of relationships.

In my own practice, I seek—whenever possible—to reach a state of balance. It is both a pursuit and a guiding principle: a way to move forward with clarity and intention.

Creating symbolic objects is a deeply rooted passion. Through these jewels, I offer microcosms—subtle, living structures that are at once intimate and open.

Over time, I have come to understand—through your words—that these pieces can take on unexpected roles:

A comforter.
A companion to joy.
A bearer of well-being.
A guardian of self-worth.
A catalyst for confidence.
A signature of style.

And you—what would you call yours?
What role does your Ziio piece take on?
