From the modern to the traditional, Banks Lyon Jewellers are stockists of many fine jewellery brands that offers a taste of both. One such brand is Marco Bicego, whose collections showcase old world tradition modified by modern design.
Heritage
Born the son of a goldsmith, Marco Bicego was not immediately drawn to this profession, let alone that of jewellery design. Family was at the heart of Bicego’s life in Italy and he cites this as his greatest influence in the journey of his life. His father being a goldsmith had some influence on the future career that he would forge, but there was also a desire from Bicego to take this in a different direction. Marco Bicego built his brand on the experience of his family’s goldsmith traditions and enhanced them with his inborn passion for Italian creativity.
Surrounded by beauty from a young age due to his Venetian roots, it is easy to see how Bicego was so inspired by his home country despite having no formal jewellery design training.

This technique is particularly apparent in the Marco Bicego Goa Collection. Pieces such as the White Gold Three Row Diamond Bracelet have this hand-twisted gold as a central aspect of their aesthetic. The brilliant diamonds are placed in such a way to contrast playfully against the different shade of gold upon your wrist. A simple, but elegant, design perfect for everyday wear.
