About Ippolita Brand: Established in 1999 in New York, is a jewelry brand that reached a perfect balance between art and craftsmanship. The brand was founded by an Italian designer Ippolita Rostagno. After graduated from the Istituto d’Arte in Florence where she studied sculpture, Ippolita wanted to implement her “love of sculpture into a form of wearable art.” Today jewelry by Ippolita is made by hands and celebrates women of all ages.

About Italian jewelry: Italian Jewelry History Italian jewelry style is deeply rooted in the history of the region. The beginning of it can be marked as far as 700 BC. What we consider today as the Italian style was impacted by the ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan cultures. Italian jewelry of all time is mostly made of yellow gold. This metal has been favored the most by the Italian makers. In the Etruscan region goldsmiths developed such processes as alloying and engraving, also the granulation method got perfected and became a signature. In the later Middle Ages, the most sought-after jewelry pieces came from Vicenza and Florence. During the Renaissance era, the art of jewelry making was as important as painting and architecture.

Italian Chains In Italy chain production started somewhere back to the ancient times, as braided chains were found in Ur and Uppsala at the archaeological sites. They were crafted by using knitting technique and were precursors of the modern link chains. Thanks to Italian makers, we have Figaro, Anchor and Spiga links today. Those links could be a result of reinvented and reimagined Catholic rosaries...
