Description
Founded in 1969 by Leonardo and Angela Santagostino in Valenza, Italy, Santagostino Gioielli is a distinguished jewelry brand that has been creating exquisite pieces for over five decades. Valenza, known globally for its rich tradition in goldsmithing, provides the perfect environment for Santagostino's meticulous craftsmanship. In 1989, the launch of the "Unique Bouquets" collection showcased their creativity, featuring intricate designs and a mix of precious and semi-precious stones. Since 2002, the founders' daughter, Ilenia Corti, has led the brand’s artistic direction, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern, whimsical designs inspired by fairy tales and nature.
Santagostino's jewelry is characterized by its use of a wide variety of gemstones, often featuring up to twenty different types in a single piece, creating vibrant and colorful creations. The factory employs master goldsmiths and artisans who work with ancient techniques, such as lost-wax casting and hand engraving, to ensure each piece is a unique work of art. In 2015, Santagostino adopted the TFashion traceability code, emphasizing their commitment to ethical practices and sustainability. Today, their pieces are sold in specialty boutiques worldwide and continue to captivate with their blend of tradition, innovation, and creativity.
