D’Orica/opera. Two words that almost rhyme: a harmony of sounds that becomes a harmony of purpose. A natural connection that we have decided to openly embrace: in 2018 we became Ambassadors of Donizetti, patrons of Italian culture and art, which we have always supported with our work: jewellery that brings the value of Italian know-how par excellence all over the…
For us, feeling good at the workplace is a fundamental principle. But what do we mean by feeling good? For us it means safety and health, but also wellness and beauty. That’s why the ceiling of our processing room has turned into a painted sky. The project arose from the decision to install sound-absorbing panels to reduce the decibels by…
The learning of the past, the passion of today and the innovation of the future: these are the guiding principles of “The Ethical Silk Road”, a project undertaken by D’orica which, after 50 years in business, has re-established silk production in Italy, restructuring the entire production cycle.

The design of these…

In 2014, thanks to a research conducted in order to renew our product lines with a collection of objects in gold and silk, we realised that true Italian silk doesn’t exist anymore. In Italy, those factories which up to about half a century ago were most…
Nove Gioie is the second episode of a collaborative project between D’orica and the art school G. De Fabris of Nove, which began in 2011. The project consists of a training program that involves directly teachers, students and company staff in the creation of jewelry prototypes. Young students have been working closely to D’orica’s team, both inside our production facility and…
This magnificent gold necklace is created from thousands of tiny faceted gold spheres incorporating twenty revolutionary transparent solar cell gems that emulate photosynthesis, the power of nature, through a magenta dye captured between crystal glass.
