If it is 100% fine Italian jewellery, it must be Valentina Callegher DiGo, claims the company’s sales & marketing manager Gian Luca Minguzzi.
“It is very important to keep this identity: the tradition, culture, and history are present in all our business,” he told Gulf Times in the Blue Salon pavilion at Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition yesterday.
Owned by the Callegher family, the company has a 40-year-old factory in Valencia, a town in Italy where most of the people work in the jewellery business.
According to Minguzzi, Valentina designs and manufactures jewellery in this factory for others as well. “When we study design, we always keep in mind that it must be something unique, even to the smallest detail,” he noted. “When we design something classic, we try to add an extra, new twist, young, modern, but simple.”  
Valentina takes inspiration from the nature, from flowers to butterflies, taking advantage its tradition of producing jewellery: precious stones, its classic line or the semi-precious stones and opals from different collections. 
Minguzzi said their products are presented in different materials and in different colours of the gold such as white, rose, and yellow, among others to have a new look. Like other famous brands, he believes that symbols and motifs are an inspiration in jewellery designing.
“They are attractive for ladies, and 99% we are doing jewelleries for ladies. They love to see these motifs from the nature such as leaves, butterflies, they are our first inspiration,” he stressed.
Minguzzi, who first visited Doha in 2004, said he knows the Qatari market very well — a market that is growing much faster and evolving a lot.
