Although born into an Italian ducal family, Fulco di Verdura considered himself an American jeweler, embracing the bold, avant-garde spirit of his adopted country. He found inspiration everywhere, whether combing the beaches of southern California and Long Island or exploring the galleries of the Museum of Natural History. In this extended Off-Season collection, we’ve played with texture and color to highlight the tactile beauty of Verdura’s creations and underscore the high-low paradox of American style. Throughout these pages, you’ll discover his jewels displayed against a vivid range of textures. These pieces are as exquisite to the touch as they are to the eye — but unquestionably look their best when worn.
