<i>For the last thirty years, Paolo Piovan has indulged his passion as an artist
whose ethereal creations turn one's dreams into reality.</i>





From its beginnings as a small atelier in Padova, Paolo Piovan has evolved into a large brand with international appeal. Yet, it remains true to the skills, traditions and values of its roots. As a designer, Paolo Piovan's incomparable designs merge luxury with symmetry, turning the creations into inspired works of art. For him, creativity is liberty - the liberty to travel, to search, to choose, to love. Jewelry is an expression of beauty that originates from the extraordinary experiences that life offers. Ideas arise unexpectedly. Imagination needs stim-ulation, sensations, unplanned moments. The designer's ideas are transformed through the meticulous imple-mentation that gives life and form to his creative philosophy.
A recipient of numerous design awards, Piovan's most recent honor includes the Tahitian Pearl Trophy for an ensemble using varied tones and sizes of Tahitian pearls accented with stars, moons and planets of gold and diamonds. Always influenced by the beauties of nature, Piovan's signature pieces include flowers, frogs, fish and birds crafted of hundreds of perfectly matched colored gemstones accented by diamonds. His choice of stones ranges from grape-like clusters of amber to multicolored sapphires to bold colored diamonds.
With his undeniably unique and ever-evolving master-pieces set with gemstones in countless hues, Paolo Piovan evokes the desire for something new, something scintillating, something that touches us.
