Moretto Albero della Vita brooch in white gold with diamonds, 1970s. The brooch is inspired by the Tree of Life motif, originally created in 1947 for his wife Giuseppina.
The company is proud of its traditional jewelry and continues to produce series launched in the first half of the 20th century, among which the moretto sculptural brooches, which have become the hallmark of the company, are especially recognizable. The first such brooches were issued almost a hundred years ago – in 1930.
