UNA STORIA silver jewellery

For more than seventy years, our family has come together around a shared vision driven by common passions: jewellery, travel, Italy, nature and the French art of living.

Three generations have grown up with discoveries, encounters and shared emotions. From holidays in Verona to walks through the narrow streets of Venice, from Italian landscapes to treasures discovered around the world, every memory has shaped the way we see beauty, colour and the cultures that give places their identity.

This sensibility gave birth to the French brand UNA STORIA in 2007.

Meaning "a story" in Italian, the name of the jewellery house reflects a deep conviction: a jewel is more than its precious metal. It can reveal a personality, celebrate an occasion or become a treasured witness to a journey, a place and the emotions attached to them.

Cécile, Frédérique and Pierre chose to break with the traditional codes of jewellery by creating rhodium-plated silver jewels with bold designs and shimmering shades. This creative vision is expressed today in the house's signature: Assertive Elegance.

Based in Vichy, in the heart of France, the UNA STORIA design studio, under the creative direction of Antoine Gaillard, Sales and Product Marketing Director, creates collections of silver jewellery for women inspired by art, nature, architecture and encounters. Each creation is an invitation to travel, where colour becomes a universal language that conveys emotion.

Sold in nearly 650 jewellery shops and backed by a family group employing 650 people in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, UNA STORIA continues to grow with the same ambition: to create original, elegant and colourful jewellery.

UNA STORIA jewellery is made to the standards of the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), the international benchmark for the jewellery industry, reflecting the house's commitment to responsible practices.

A trip to North America marked a turning point in UNA STORIA's history. Captivated by the brilliance of the toucan's plumage, the family founded its design studio and created the Toucan collection. Colour then became a true jewellery language. On rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver, vibrant shades create bold compositions and lay the foundations of the house's distinctive identity.

Drawing inspiration from the arts and symbols of pre-Columbian civilisations, the Aztec collection reinterprets the strength of ancestral geometric patterns. Deep blue contrasts with pure white, while structured lines reveal the modernity of this heritage. A bold graphic expression, where solid silver enhances the contrast of the shades. 

A land of attachment and family memories, Tuscany inspired the Siena collection. Its sun-drenched landscapes, its villages with warm façades and its art of living inspire gentle, graceful jewellery. With harmonious shades and elegant lines, Siena celebrates a certain idea of Italian beauty, timeless and generous.

Over the years, the house has continued to explore the world and its cultures. Greece inspired the Mosaïque collection, whose colourful compositions recall Mediterranean frescoes and decorations. Other creations draw their inspiration from the landscapes, architecture and traditions encountered while travelling, constantly enriching UNA STORIA's creative world.

A few steps from the house's headquarters, in the heart of Vichy, whose parks have been awarded the "Remarkable Tree of France" label since 2010, nature in turn became a source of inspiration. The Ginkgo collection celebrates the beauty of an iconic tree, a symbol of strength, longevity and harmony.

The organic lines of its leaves inspire delicate creations in which colour highlights the poetry of the plant world. The Ginkgo collection also marks a return to the house's roots, showing that the finest inspiration can sometimes come from a simple walk.

From France to North America, from Italy to Greece, from cultural heritage to the wonders of nature, every UNA STORIA collection pursues the same ambition: to reveal the beauty of the world through jewellery full of colour and emotion.

As it approaches its twentieth anniversary, which the house will celebrate in 2027, UNA STORIA unveils the Madeira Torque, a piece of jewellery produced in a limited edition of only 150 numbered pieces. 

The Madeira Torque continues the story of the collection of the same name, inspired by the botanical richness of the island of Madeira. Known as the "Garden of the Atlantic", this destination with its lush vegetation inspires a generous floral composition, where colours and volumes unfold around the neckline. 

Designed in the house's design studio in Vichy, the Madeira Torque is made of rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver and set with zirconium oxides. From the technical drawing to the gouache colouring, its creation reflects meticulous work, carried on by the skilled hands of the jeweller and the stone setter. At the heart of the floral composition, a discreet clasp preserves the continuity of the design and the balance of the jewel. 

With this limited edition, UNA STORIA reaffirms travel as a source of inspiration and opens a new chapter in its history as it approaches its 20th anniversary.
