The Art of Gemsetting Illuminates S by Salanitro

Aug 26, 2024

SALANITRO SA Factory 042S by Salanitro said, “A collection of precious electrical switches, set with diamonds and gemstones – designed for living spaces. Pierre Salanitro’s boundless creativity has given rise to the first collection of electrical wall switches to bring the sparkle of jewelry to the interiors of the most beautiful villas and properties around the world.

Elevated by the craftsmanship of 250 gem-setters, engravers, and jewelers-goldsmiths at Salanitro’s Geneva workshops – where technical prowess and artistic sensibility reach their highest levels – each electrical switch incorporates a multitude of diamonds and precious stones, set directly into the fitting.”

It’s a groundbreaking idea in the world of ultra-luxury: a new idea, something so obvious yet never before realized, an object we all – regardless of our country and culture – use dozens of times a day. The luxury brand S by Salanitro presents an exceptional innovation: the first-ever collection of precious electrical switches, crafted like works of art and adorned with diamonds and precious stones.

These revolutionary creations – 100% Swiss in conception and execution – originated from a spark between Pierre Salanitro and his friend Niki Pirker, second-generation owner and director of Pirker Electricité, established in Geneva over five decades ago and known for top-level expertise in electrical installations. Pierre and Niki have combined their technical and aesthetic talents to bring this unique product line to life.

Both Pierre and Niki travel extensively and serve a highly demanding international clientele. Their creations, born from their imagination and creativity, redefine everyday elegance and sophistication, transforming functional objects into true works of art designed to grace the world’s most beautiful villas and properties.

Pierre Salanitro explains: “Creating these switches is also a way of bringing innovation to the rather conservative sector of electrical fittings and switches. Designed for exclusive locations like wine cellars, mountain chalets, yachts, villas, hotels, and luxury boutiques, these creations are far more than mere functional elements; they are works of art in their own right. Each switch is custom-designed, offering an endless array of artistic possibilities and patterns to perfectly complement the style of any space.”
