Pianegonda – Art for a Lifestyle of Natural Luxury
Franco Pianegonda developed his jewelry with sister Maria Luisa at his side. He wanted to show that a precious ornament is able to express moods and personality more than an outfit. If designed artfully, Franco feels it will withstand the test of time and will not die as fashion trends eventually do. Pianegonda jewelry embodies that movement and transformation with strong character. With outstanding lines that are unique, the Pianegonda collections provide a needed breath of fresh air to jewelry.

With this Ring…
The wedding bands often get overlooked by the ever important engagement ring, but on your wedding day the wedding rings will be taking center stage. Unlike the engagement ring, the happy couple get to pick out these rings together.
