A love of tradition set Mario Buccellati and his fine jewelry house apart in the competitive Italian market and remains a point of pride for the family.
In 1919, Mario launched Buccellati with the opening of his first shop in Milan and quickly built a reputation for his richly embellished traforato, or finely pierced goldwork. The Ancona, Italy–born jeweler’s workmanship was in a class of its own. His rings, earrings, bracelets and other accessories were exquisite, yet the gemstones themselves were never too flashy, elevated instead by the designs’ intricate metalsmithing.
Today the Buccellati family is still closely tied to the business even as it is now owned by Richemont, a luxury conglomerate that also counts Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels among its subsidiaries.
A young Mario Buccellati apprenticed with famed goldsmith Beltrami e Besnati in the early 1900s, although many of the goldsmithing techniques synonymous with Buccellati go as far back as the Italian Renaissance. The family lineage is also said to include 18th-century jeweler Contardo Buccellati.
Owing to the founder’s advanced metalworking skills, the brand is known for designs that feature metal with the delicacy of lace and draw on the wonders of the natural world. The house’s work is typified by intricate gemstone settings that emphasize their natural color and dense engraving techniques that transform the texture of gold.
One of the time-honored engraving techniques that has come to characterize Buccellati’s work — techniques that require apprenticeships and training in the fine jeweler’s workshops — is called rigato. It involves the engraving of a precious metal with a series of parallel lines to achieve a fabric-like effect.
Rigato is on luminous display in the house’s Macri collection of earrings, cuff bracelets and other accessories. A painstaking attention to detail is pronounced in the celebrated Macri, Bartolomeo and Unica collections — witness the striking honeycomb motif, a house signature, that characterizes the Unica collection’s Caterina bracelet, for example.
The Macri collection was the work of Mario’s son, Gianmaria Buccellati, an award-winning jeweler and internationally renowned silversmith who worked to bring the brand to the global stage by overseeing the opening of boutiques in Tokyo, Paris, California and elsewhere.
In 1951, Mario opened his first store in New York City; today the company operates boutiques worldwide. In 2019, the company celebrated its centennial with a new flagship in Paris and the Vintage collection, which features some of its most enduring designs.

Fine Rare Estate Mario Buccellati Cabochon Opal 18K Gold Spider Web Ring
By Mario Buccellati
Located in New York, NY
Stunning estate Mario Buccellati High Jewelry cabochon opal 18K yellow and patinated white gold spider web cocktail ring Mid 20th Century The large cabochon opal displaying a striking array of colors ranging from turquoise, blue, pink and gold with strong color change qualities, appearing more intense at night and against dark backgronds and lighter in daylight. The gem is set in a finely detailed yellow gold setting which forms a spider web design against a textured patinated white gold background. The name opal is believed to derive from the Sanskrit "upala", which means precious stone, as well as the Greek "opallios". Historically, opals were very rare and highly prized as a result. Napoleon I presented a fabulous opal called The Burning of Troy to Josephine, the first opal to be named. Elizabeth II received the Andalooka Opal, known as The Queen's Opal on her state visit to Australia. In the Middle Ages, opal were considered powerful talismans due to their color spectrum- they were believed to possess the virtue of every gemstone whose color was represented in the opal. Opal is October's birthstone. Opal 14 mm by 12 mm by 3mm Marks: M Buccellati, Italy 15 MI References: Sotheby's April 20, 2023, Wolf Family Collection for a similar Buccellati opal...
