The Dream Laboratory of Filostil
Filostil's tailored approach gives life to unique and timeless jewels
Conception, interpretation, creation. Three steps that encapsulate the essence of an entrepreneurial organization that, in over 50 years of history, has managed to evolve and adapt to the times over and over again. While Filostil started out in 1978 as an artisan workshop in the heart of the Valenza gold district, over the years it has broadened its horizons, reaching an enviable portfolio of over 170 customers worldwide, satisfying the most varied needs, from compiling abundant catalogues of ad hoc collections for a specific market to unique pieces of high jewelry, the summa of savoir faire and a typically Made in Italy style. And, with a view to a continuous search for the best service and welcoming the progressively stronger and widespread need for “tailor-made”, out-of-the-box and unconventional jewelry that shuns standardized and mass market production, Filostil, led by CEO Giorgia Cattelan, heir to a third generation family business that thrives on passion and the desire to amaze, is now looking even further ahead by increasingly putting itself forward as an absolute and outright creative partner. The customer who entrusts in Filostil's creative team of skilled craftsmen and experts in cutting-edge technologies, knows that his or her idea will become the focus of an extensive project, the object of a team effort in which technique, aesthetics and artistic sensitivity merge into one, meeting the demands of those who dream of a special piece of jewelry, one with a soul.The Cad program offers technical support to the goldsmith whose hands then gives that extra added value by molding, interpreting and giving meaning and shape to that initial sketch. «Our approach is not that of mere performers,» Giorgia Cattelan points out. «We want to go the extra mile, not just by producing what has been commissioned, but by creating something new. It is in this attention and passion for detail that real and honest innovation in terms of design can be found.» The workshop therefore becomes a place of experimentation and refinement, where every detail is well thought out, revised and enhanced with and for the customer. The result is timeless classics that combine geometric shapes, a play on color and styles from different eras that transcend fashion and become timeless.
