About Marina B Brand
If we were to define Marina B jewelry in three words, they would be: “Fun, Sophisticated, and… More Fun.” With candy-colored stones, glittering diamond settings, and whimsical shapes, the collection embodies the playful spirit of the 1980s. But don’t let the playful designs fool you—the craftsmanship of the Marina B collection is impeccable. The brand’s founder, Marina Bulgari, hailed from the illustrious Maison Bulgari, where she mastered the art of fine jewelry making. Marina B represents Italian luxury at its finest, created to the highest goldsmith standards.
Born in Rome in 1930, Marina Bulgari was part of the legendary Bulgari family, renowned for their iconic jewelry empire. Her father, Giorgio Bulgari, played a pivotal role in shaping the Bulgari legacy. Marina B’s innovative approach to jewelry design left a lasting impact on the industry, with her creations like the Collier, Egeo, and Boule remaining highly sought after for their artistic and avant-garde appeal. She was particularly celebrated for her use of unconventional gemstone cuts, including kite-shaped, trapezoidal, and freeform stones.
In 1993, the Marina B brand was acquired by TTF, a Swiss luxury group. Under new ownership, the brand continued to honor Marina B's original vision, producing jewelry that is contemporary, edgy, and bold. Find your own fun and sophisticated pieces by Marina B here.
