Our history begins this way…
Topazio was born in the Vicenza’s goldsmith industry in January 1973 when Maurizio Guerra decided to close down his previous artisanal activity while his wife Giovanna gave up her job in the goldsmith laboratory of her father.
Dedication and creativity perfectly summarize the first years of what was “Topazio Bijoux” and with the logo 702 VI the Guerra spouses produced items and jewels following the trends of the ‘70s.
Medals and pendants in gold and silver: our specialty
In the early ‘80s the meeting with some north-European wholesalers marked a turning point in Topazio’s production. In a few years, they specialized themselves in the production of medals and pendants in both gold and silver: cut, stamped, fused; polished, satin or sandblasted; religious medals but, mostly, medals for engravings.
New evolutions: laser and pantograph engravings
In the ‘90s the catalogue with Topazio’s proposals was enriched with medals, hearts and pendants which were diamond cut, engraved with either laser or pantograph: a lot of new products that allowed the company to expand its reference markets and acquire new customers.
CNC machine work: the innovation comes
An important turning point for Topazio happened in 2000: the company moved to the new venue while Marco and Matteo helped their mother Giovanna to run the family business after the premature disappearance of their father Maurizio. New technologies flank the traditional production: CNC machines that make Topazio’s proposals more versatile and that allow the company to personalize the items under specific customers’ requests.
Who are we today
Today Topazio is a company mostly specialized in the craftsmanship on polished, satin, diamond cut and engraved sheet (also on sheets o important thicknesses) while keeping the union between tradition and innovation and while it keeps guaranteeing high qualitative standards of its products and services.
As well as always proposing new lines of jewels for its clientele, Topazio provides its competencies in the craftsmanship of sheets for third parties such as important companies in the jewellery sector, in the fashion one including fashion accessories.
