Manuel Bozzi is no novice in the world of fine jewelry. As a young artist, Bozzi impressed French designers Marithé and François Girbaud with his unique aesthetic. Their collaborations—which continue on to this day—established Bozzi as a name to watch and the subsequent global success marked him as an innovator in the field.

With the launch of his namesake label in 2003, the Italian tastemaker continues to share his talent and perspective with the world. Bozzi’s jewelry masterfully combines precious metals such as silver and gold with leather and precious stones to create a distinctive look. His painstaking attention to detail is apparent in each handcrafted piece, giving Bozzi’s work both character and appeal. Unlike traditional jewelry, Bozzi’s designs are concerned with the unconventional—skull bracelets, bullet pendants, fly earrings and snake clasps. The result is unisex and edgy yet inviting and flirty.

Today, the designer’s work is housed in some of the most exclusive boutiques worldwide. With the unprecedented success of his Rock ‘n Roll University collection, Bozzi plans to spread his vision of Italian romantic determinism around the world—a worthy ambition for this deserving veteran.
