Of all the jewelers in the world, Buccellati could be considered to have one of the most distinctive styles. The tradition of gold and silversmithing in the Buccellati family dates back to the early 18th century, when Mario Buccellati founded the jewelry house in Milan, Italy, and where production continues today. Mario Buccellati derived inspiration from the superb craftsmanship of the celebrated 16th century goldsmith and sculptor Benevenuto Cellini. He adopted and modified Cellini’s jewelry technique of “texture engraving” with a bullino, a steel tool similar to a chisel which has been employed by craftsmen since the Renaissance to achieve varying effects on the surface of the metal.

The beautifully crafted bangles in this sale are exquisite examples of Buccellati’s style, unparalleled craftsmanship and timeless designs. The impeccable level of detail and rigorously textured surfaces are just a few of the hallmarks that keep the world’s tastemakers turning to this marque time and time again. Choose from the aquamarine, diamond and gold bracelet—an alluring accessory that will complement the beauty of any wearer—or for the nature-lover in you, look to a gold bracelet whose leaf-motif envelops the wrist with an organic sense of grace.
