GARAVELLI, Made In Italy Since 1920
OUR STORY. Four generations. One name
Garavelli is the name of our family.
For four generations, jewellery has been our art and our life — a world of gold, diamonds, precious stones, craftsmanship and endless curiosity.
Our story began in the early 1900s with our great-grandfather, Mario Garavelli, who opened a small jewellery shop and gave it his name. From the very beginning, Garavelli became known for creations distinguished by quality, character and individuality.
His son, Aldo Garavelli, carried that dream forward with the spirit of a pioneer. Under his guidance, Garavelli expanded beyond Italy, building an important presence in Europe and the United States and becoming one of the early Italian exporters in the jewellery industry.
Then came the next generation: Kira Garavelli and Giancarlo Molina, who continued the family journey and brought the Garavelli name to new places around the world.
Today, the story continues with Elisabetta and Stefano.
The world has changed. Jewellery has changed. But the passion that inspired the generations before us remains.
Today, it is easy to hide behind a brand name. We prefer to reveal the people, the history and the passion behind ours.
Because Garavelli is more than a name stamped on a jewel.
It is the story of a family that has spent more than a century imagining, creating and living jewellery.
VALENZA. Where our story begins.
Every Garavelli jewel begins in Valenza.
For generations, this small Italian town has been one of the world's most important
centres of jewellery-making — a place where knowledge is passed from hand to
hand, and where craftsmanship is not simply a profession, but part of the
culture itself.
This is where our family story took shape.
Being Made in Italy is part of who we are. But for us, it means something more
specific.
It means being born in a place shaped by goldsmiths, stone setters, designers and
artisans. It means growing up surrounded by the knowledge, skills and
traditions that have made Valenza synonymous with Italian jewellery.
Over more than a century, the world around us has changed, but our connection to this
place has remained constant.
Born in Valenza. Made in Italy. Since 1920.
THE ATELIER. The art of making jewellery.
Before a Garavelli jewel becomes yours, it begins with an idea.
It takes shape in our vision, through sketches, materials and stones, before being brought to life by the hands and experience of our craftsmen.
Every stone is personally and individually selected. Each one is chosen for its colour, character and beauty before being entrusted to the skilled hands of our in-house artisans.
Designers, stone setters, polishers and finishers all contribute to the creation of a
Garavelli jewel. Their work cannot be separated from the finished piece.
The value of a jewel is not determined by precious materials alone. It is also found in the time, knowledge and experience of the people who create it —
skills developed and refined over a lifetime.
From the first idea to the final finishing touch, every jewel is followed with care
until it becomes part of someone else's story.
Precious materials are only the beginning. Human hands give a jewel its soul.
THE GARAVELLI WAY. Our way of seeing jewellery.
For us, jewellery has never been simply about creating something precious. It is about creating something personal.
Throughout its history, Garavelli has looked beyond the traditional idea of jewellery, observing the world around us and transforming contemporary influences — fashion, colour, movement and design — into pieces made to be worn and remembered.
Our inspiration has always evolved with time.
Rather than simply following trends, we interpret them. We transform ideas into gold, colour into gemstones and imagination into objects that become part of the person who wears them.
Our goal has never been simply to create classic jewellery. We believe a jewel can be precious and personal at the same time.
It can express a mood, define a style, mark a moment or become part of someone's identity.
This way of seeing jewellery was already present in the vision of Aldo Garavelli.
For him, the ultimate source of inspiration was always the woman.
That search continues today:
To create
something new without forgetting where we come from.
To respect
craftsmanship while embracing innovation.
To create
jewels that are not simply worn, but become part of the person who chooses them.
This is the Garavelli way.
