About Italian jewelry
Italian jewelry history
Italian jewelry style is deeply rooted in the history of the region. The beginning of it can be
marked as far as 700 BC. What we consider today as the Italian style was impacted by the
ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan cultures.
Italian jewelry of all time is mostly made of yellow gold. This metal has been favored the most
by Italian makers. In the Etruscan region goldsmiths developed such processes as alloying and
engraving, also the granulation method got perfected and became a signature. In the later Middle
Ages, the most sought-after jewelry pieces came from Vicenza and Florence. During the
Renaissance era, the art of jewelry making was as much important as painting and architecture.
Later, in the Baroque era, jewelry design shifted from bold and straight forward pieces to
intricate and more detailed. Today Italian jewelry style and look depends on a certain maker.
However, “made in Italy” jewelry always relates to luxurious lifestyle, timeless design and
exquisite manufacturing.
Italian makers
So many great jewelry brands came from Italy, it’s really challenging to mention just a few.
Vhernier, Roberto Coin and of course Bulgari could be the first who come to mind when we
think of the Italian makers. We also should mention Carlo Weingrill, a jewelry house from
Verona. Their high-quality pieces have been sought after in the last few decades. The house has
been family owned by four generations of jewelers. Passing family traditions of workmanship is
another staple of Italian jewelry making. Italian cultural heritage, high-skilled makers and great
quality materials keep going the never-ending popularity of Italian jewelry.

A pair of La Perla 18k gold hoop earrings featuring cabochon cut gemstones and diamonds. These colorful hoop earrings offer a bold, playful take on a classic shape. The hoops are generously sized and have a rounded profile. Set along the entire outer curve is a series of vibrant cabochon-cut gemstones: rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. Each gemstone is separated by small gold accents that create a nice rhythm in the design. The cabochons are slightly raised, giving texture and dimension to the otherwise smooth gold surface. The mix of colors feels well-balanced and considered. The bezel-set gemstones keep the edges of the hoops clean and smooth. With their rounded forms and varied hues, this pair is a thoughtful nod to Italian jewelry traditions with a bit of flair.
