Pestelli jewelry is today still a family-owned business that was founded in 1908. Edoardo Pestelli was a trained goldsmith, having worked at Marchesini jewelry before taking on a storefront in Florence. Their company specialized in exquisitely refined pieces that incorporated scrolling gold word and dazzling gemstones. In 1920, Edoardo’s sons, Francesco and Luigi, joined the business as it continued to flourish. In turn, Pestelli is currently run by Tommaso Pestelli, the 4th generation of Florentine goldsmiths.
