Note: In 1947, Emma Caimi Pellini founded her atelier. After studying at the Brera Fine Arts Academy in 1950, Emma participated in the Triennale in Milano, winning the Second and Third Prizes at the Imitation of the Jewelry exhibition. In 1951, Saks in New York invited her to display her work in the prestigious 5th Avenue store.
In 1964, her daughter Carla took over the atelier in Palazzo Belgiojoso, where the showroom and press office still are.
In the family atelier, Donatella learns the art of jewelry and reinterprets it with a contemporary vision. In the 1980s, she started displaying her jewelry collections of plexiglass, PVC, and rhodoid at Bergdorf Goodman and Saks Fifth Ave in New York and Neiman Marcus in Dallas and Los Angeles.
In the 1990s, she collaborated with Italian, French, and American fashion designers. Donatella became known in the fashion world for her experimentation with resin, which is still the main character of the brand.
In 2000, the company inaugurated Donatellapellini, a semiprecious stone collection that combines modern techniques with ancient craft traditions.
Today, Donatella Pellini shares her days with an expert team who have assimilated the company culture and carried on the tradition with experience and passion.
