Pesavento

What Pesavento does

Pesavento Srl Unipersonale is an Italian jewelry design, manufacturing, and wholesale company headquartered in Vicenza, in the Veneto region — one of Europe's historic centers of fine jewelry production. Founded in 1992 by Marino Pesavento and Chiara Carli, the company produces artisan rings, bracelets, necklaces, and earrings primarily in 925 sterling silver with rhodium, rose gold, and yellow gold plating options. Its core technical differentiators are the proprietary Polvere di Sogni powder treatment, which creates distinctive degraded and luminous surface finishes, and the DNA Spring technology — a flexible silver-wire construction technique developed around a single silver wire element, introduced through the DNA collection in 2012 and commercialized via the DNA Spring variant in 2015. The full product portfolio spans the DNA, DNA – Polvere di Sogni, Polvere di Sogni (including the I Colori del Mondo sub-line), Pixel, Giallo Mondo, Forever Chic, and Brio collections.

Pesavento operates a vertically integrated wholesale B2B model. All manufacturing — from raw material processing to finished product — is performed in-house at the Vicenza facility, where approximately 40 staff are dedicated to goldsmithing activities. The company sells exclusively through a global network of more than 2,500 authorized jewelry retailers across 60+ countries, with no direct-to-consumer online sales channel; consumers are directed to a store locator to identify nearby authorized dealers. Pricing is set at the retail level by individual dealers and is not publicly disclosed. Pesavento supports demand generation through biannual collection launches tied to the Vicenzaoro trade shows, an active press kit, editorial coverage in Vogue Italia, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar, and Corriere della Sera, and an owned social presence on Facebook and Instagram under the Pesavento Art Expressions brand.

Revenue mechanics are anchored in the wholesale distribution of silver and silver-plated jewelry rather than licensing or DTC commerce. The company is a certified member of the Responsible Jewellery Council under both the Code of Practices (2019) and Chain of Custody (2017) standards, providing an ethical sourcing credential that increasingly influences luxury purchase decisions. Strategic positioning emphasizes Italian craftsmanship, distinctive proprietary surface treatments, internationally recognized design signatures (DNA, Polvere di Sogni), and RJC-certified supply chain practices. The company is structured as a single-member Italian limited liability company (Srl Unipersonale) with a registered share capital of €110,000 and no disclosed external investment, indicating a founder/owner-operated enterprise at stable scale rather than a venture-backed growth vehicle.
