From top: Osanna Visconti di Modrone’s gold-plate and blackened sterling silver bracelets, $2,980 each, at Adam, New York, and 24k gold leaf earrings, $890, at 10 Corso Como, Milan.
Such razzle-dazzle ornaments may not be up her own alley, yet Visconti is a firm believer that jewelry should always be part of a woman’s regimen. “It’s a bit like makeup,” she says. “You wear it to look more beautiful.”
