    Symbol

"The jewel is traditionally a symbol of power, religion, royalty, social prestige, patriotism, but also of the variegated feelings that bind human beings: love, friendship, fidelity, mourning. The jewel also symbolizes the identity and manufacturing excellence of the territories and Italy can boast excellent goldsmith territories such as Vicenza, Valenza, Arezzo, and Torre del Greco, where know-how and trade culture have settled over time giving us the wonderful jewels that we present to you."
