Richemont sibling maison with couture-level stone setting
What changes: Motif-driven Parisian glamour rather than engraved gold texture
Brand profile
Milanese high jewellery and silver house, founded 1919 and Richemont-owned, known for textural hand-engraving and honeycomb tulle openwork.

Rigato, telato, segrinato and ornato engraving textures the metal so gold reads like fabric or lace, seen in the honeycomb tulle openwork and Macri cuffs.
Alongside rings and cuffs the house makes flatware, animal-form silver centrepieces and jewelled watches, continuing its original silversmithing work.
Prices sit at true high-jewellery level, sold through directly operated boutiques in Europe, the US and Asia, with Richemont as owner since 2019.

Its work centres on hand-engraving techniques — rigato, telato, segrinato and ornato — that give gold a textile-like surface, alongside honeycomb tulle openwork and Renaissance-inspired motifs. Core lines include Macri cuffs and rings, Opera Tulle, Hawaii, Blossoms and Ramage, plus animal-form silver centrepieces and flatware. The house also produces jewelled watches and sells through directly operated boutiques in Europe, the United States and Asia.
