Marco Bicego and Siviglia

Posted at 12:21:40 PM in Marco Bicego (5)

 

Siviglia or "Seville" is the fourth most populated city in Spain and considered the center of artistic, cultural, and social center of the southern part of the country. The region's prominence is apparent in its many elaborately-spired gothic cathedrals, architectural remains and well-storied watchtowers that are juxtaposed brilliantly among modern and state-of-the-art architectural structures. The feel of the city is both old-age and contemporary. Siviglia is one of Marco Bicego's inspirations in his many lines of beautiful, stylish jewelries. Like the wonderful city that inspired it, the Siviglia collection cleverly mixes contemporary, everyday chic with timeless and romantic elegance. The varying lengths of gold chains are punctuated with nuggets of gold and pave diamonds. Each one is especially molded to flaunt nature's variable and irregular forms.
 
Indeed, Marco Bicego brings the many faces of the world in one setting. Check out the Siviglia collection at Shreve & Co. in Portland, Oregon.

Golden is the New "Colorful"

Posted at 4:09:53 AM in Marco Bicego (5)

 

Marco Bicego, Italian jewelry designer, brand owner, family man, and unrestrained traveler, loves to play with colors in his nature inspired collections like Paradise and Jaipur Sunset. But Marco Bicego is not always about colors. His Jaipur Link Collection uses yellow gold as medium, embellished only with expertly rendered loops and waves. Jaipur Link chains are interwoven with golden loops that imitate nature's beautifully spontaneous and asymmetrical arrangements, giving an aura of natural and effortless grace. The interplay of long, slender strands with alternating rings add playful movement to the pieces. If there is anything Marco Bicego wants to express in this collection, elegance does not need dazzling stones and lively jewelry do not always have to be colorful. Jaipur Link is neither studded nor multi-colored, yet it is completely stylish and unexpectedly vibrant. A woman of taste can let a versatile Jaipur Link necklace hang elegantly to reveal its full length, or wrap it around to form a series of layers that reveals her creative and edgy side.
Shreve & Co. in Portland, Oregon is an authorized dealer for Marco Bicego.

Everyday Life Luxury

Posted at 12:00:00 AM in Marco Bicego (5)

 

“All of my creations must be manipulated by hand in order for them to preserve a unique and luxurious experience.” These are the words of the master craftsman who manipulates gold and gemstones with masterful ease and decadence. His philosophy is all about the pure expression of everyday luxury blossoming from the skillful manipulation of materials. This is apparent in his coil creations that have garnered women patrons of discerning taste that regard a Marco Bicego piece as a luxurious purchase for one’s self. Marco Bicego’s inspiration come from his travels. Proofs of this are the names of his collections. Murano, Marrakech, and Jaipur Sunset among others. His Old World Italian pedigree and penchant for modern luxury has allowed Marco Bicego to position the brand in between the highbrow world of precious jewelry and the convenience of daily accessories. But in these achievements, it is his ‘guitar strings’ that he is known for. These guitar string coils were created in early 2000. They can be worn stylishly and youthful or classical and elegant. They are a testament to the playfulness of the Marco Bicego Seduction. For your Marco Bicego pieces, visit Shreve & Co. – authorized dealer for Marco Bicego.

Marco Bicego and his Universal Woman of Style and Confidence

Posted at 12:00:00 AM in Marco Bicego (5)

 

Coming from a family of goldsmiths, Marco Bicego was born with it. He didn’t really had to go far to acquire his eye and talent for jewelry. He is a natural with the gift of sensing what women crave in fashion and jewelry. Drawing from his father’s omega necklaces, Marco created his unique “guitar string” coils in early 2000. In early 2002 in line grew and evolved to include the Marrakech, a Marco Bicego “best-seller” featuring his coiled gold strands. Drawing from the spirituality of the Indian shores, the Goa collection has been created. With its diamond fitted untwisted coil, a crisscrossed flattened strands in white, yellow and pink gold follow the curves of women’s body. But most of his inspiration comes from the natural mystery of woman, a mystery that he already seemingly solved. “She is a universal woman of style and confidence; she enjoys the luxury of travel and fine food, appreciates art, history, and fine design. She has no specific age or place, but is a woman who wears creations that flatter her heart and soul, finding luxury in her everyday world and experiences…,” Marco Bicego on the clients he serves. For Marco Bicego jewelry, visit Shreve & Co. – an authorized dealer for Marco Bicego.
