What inspired you to start Marco Dal Maso, and how has your vision for the brand evolved over the years?
From a young age, I was captivated by the art of jewelry making, watching my father create exquisite pieces that were not just accessories but expressions of individuality and heritage. This deep-rooted passion led me to travel the world, gathering inspiration from various cultures and styles. When I founded MARCO DAL MASO, my vision was to blend traditional Italian craftsmanship with contemporary design. Over the years, this vision has evolved to include a strong commitment to sustainability and innovation, ensuring that our creations are not only beautiful but also ethically crafted and environmentally responsible.
How do you balance sustainability with luxury in your jewelry designs?
Balancing sustainability with luxury is at the core of our brand ethos. We achieve this by using 100% recycled sterling silver and 18kt gold in our pieces, without compromising on quality or aesthetic appeal. Our production processes are meticulously crafted in Italy by skilled artisans who uphold the highest standards of craftsmanship. By integrating sustainable practices into every aspect of our design and production, we ensure that each piece of jewelry is not only luxurious but also a testament to our commitment to environmental responsibility.
What are some of the key trends in men's jewelry that you're excited about right now?
One of the most exciting trends in men's jewelry right now is the growing acceptance and embrace of bold, statement pieces. Men are increasingly exploring jewelry as a form of self-expression, opting for items like signet rings, layered necklaces, and statement bracelets. There's also a significant shift towards personalized and customizable pieces, allowing individuals to create jewelry that reflects their unique style and personality. At MARCO DAL MASO, we are thrilled to be at the forefront of these trends, offering bespoke services that cater to this desire for individuality and distinction.
