The Mastery of Jewelery Art

A Journey into the Heart of Jewelery Art: Tomo's History and His Vision

As the founder of DALTEI, my passion for the art of metalworking has been inherited from a long line of master craftsmen, starting in Southern Italy with Nicola Ascoli. This journey through time has seen techniques and wisdom pass from hand to hand, taking root in the traditions of the Etruscans, Phoenicians, ancient Greeks and Romans.

I had the honor of learning from Nicola, a master who passed on not only his skills but also a profound vision of the jewelery art. Now, together with my team, we cultivate this legacy in the magnificent Florence, a city that for centuries has inspired artists and creatives from around the world.

Our work is a continuous meeting of past and present, where each DALTEI jewel becomes an Italian poem made of stones, colors and metal. It is here, surrounded by art and timeless beauty, that we are committed to carrying forward age-old knowledge, welcoming innovative ideas and collaborating with gem merchants from all over the world.

I am deeply grateful for the path shared with my Master and I am committed to perpetuating this tradition of excellence, hoping one day to pass the baton to a new student, thus continuing our historic chain of artisanal mastery.
