Duke Fulco di Verdura created whimsical, original fine jewelry designs in New York from the opening of his boutique in 1939 until his retirement in 1974. Many considered them revolutionary due to his fresh use of color and materials. His creations reinforced and highlighted the unique, personal style of his clients.
2019 marks the 80th anniversary of this remarkable master jeweler, who left an archive of nearly ten thousand designs to be re-created and re-imagined for women seeking a unique, personal style. This catalogue celebrates this milestone with the re-introduction of special designs from the archives that were based on some of his favorite motifs - stars ,shells, knots, coins, feathers and crosses - that are as relevant and stylish today as they were 80 years ago.
