Rossella Ugolini grew up surrounded by the Baroque architecture of Rome and regularly helped her father, a mechanic and inventor, with his home projects. From twisting electrical wires to later taking art classes in high school, Ugolini developed a curiosity for shaping objects with her hands. The link between transforming an idea into something real hooked Ugolini deeply, so she dedicated her life to creating Italian-inspired and Italian-made jewelry.
Ugolini acquired her own equipment during her studies at the Academy of Fine Arts and split her time between studying, working evenings and attaining exposure to goldsmiths and labs. She watched the goldsmiths in smoke-filled workshops, occasionally getting a small lesson in how they worked.
Highly conscientious, her pieces are made to give their wearers’ a sense of confidence. Ugolini’s jewelry epitomizes self-assuredness and grace. Along with women who appreciate the luxurious sophistication of her work, Ugolini also attracts a younger generation drawn to her jewelry’s uniqueness and personalization. She has said, “Translating my thoughts, emotions into form is what it is about.”
Ugolini has won several awards, including the 13th International Pearl Exporters Association Special Award and the 1998-99 International Prize for Jewelry Design from Perle Utopia.

Located in Rome, IT
Elevate your style with the Rossella Ugolini Sunburst Earrings, a testament to artistry and elegance. Handmade in Italy, these stud earrings showcase a round brilliant cut zircon at their center, a gleaming gemstone that forms the nucleus of a radiant design. From this central gemstone, five resplendent rays extend, reminiscent of a half sun, each terminating with an arrow-like point. This exquisite arrangement is a visual ode to the sun's radiant energy, capturing its luminous spirit. Crafted from 18k yellow gold, these earrings blend warmth and sophistication seamlessly. The yellow of the gold harmonizes beautifully with the purity of the white zircon, resulting in an accessory that exudes both a luminous aura and a hint of rock-inspired edge due to its arrow-like design. Versatile and unisex, these earrings transcend age boundaries and are perfect for anyone seeking a unique and distinctive piece of jewelry. Embrace the brilliance of the sunburst and make a statement with every wear.
