Vittorio Antogniazzi was
Born in Italy and became a
master goldsmith. He spent
25 years of his life trying to
get his beloved gold to
develop the azure blue color
of the sea. He developed a
process of uniting iron and
gold in a homogeneous
mixture and then oxidizing
the product to produce the
desired spectacular blue color.
Vittorio moved to Argentina,
where he lived until his
death, and was granted
international patents for his
process. Other processes
exist, but they result from
different forms of treatment.
These pieces are to the best of
our knowledge among the
last pieces created by Vittorio,
and we do not believe any
more are currently for sale.
Each piece is handmade, one
of a kind, unique and
stamped with the artist's
trademark "A". They are
truly pieces to be collected
and treasured.
