Rich colors and whimsical shapes informed by nature have become hallmarks of jewelry designer Valentin Magro’s signature style. Prior to establishing his eponymous brand in 1980, jewelry design was a hobby for the Malta-born Magro. Today, he is known for his attention to detail and dedicated passion to creating exceptional earrings, necklaces, rings and other adornments for jewelry lovers everywhere.
After turning 18, Magro moved to the United States from his native island, which is positioned between North Africa and Sicily. He initially pursued a degree in architecture, as jewelry design was little more than a craft he honed in his spare time. Eventually, his hobby became a full-time endeavor — Magro secured work at a range of luxury houses over time, including Tiffany & Co., Harry Winston and David Webb, where he gained the professional experience to build a career out of jewelry design.
After settling in New York City, Magro continued to challenge himself to grow as a jeweler. By taking night classes as well as consulting other masters in the field including Harry Winston’s Ambaji Shinde and Ron McNamer — a designer at Tiffany and Zolotas — Magro’s depth of knowledge grew. He graduated from the Gemological Institute of America and spent years immersed in the techniques of master jewelers. Magro eventually established his own studio in Manhattan, where he has been handcrafting bespoke pieces for clients as well as innovative collections for retail since the late 20th century.

15.5mm White South Sea Pearl Diamond Ring in 18K White Gold
Located in Hong Kong, HK
This exquisite piece of jewelry is a statement of luxury and refinement. The ring features a prominent white South Sea pearl, measuring a substantial 15.5mm, which is a size that denotes a high-quality gem. South Sea pearls are among the most coveted in the world, celebrated for their impressive size, satiny luster, and thick nacre. The pearl's overtones seem to reflect a soft iridescence, revealing various subtle colors when light hits its surface. Complementing the pearl are two fancy-cut diamonds on either side, with a total weight of 0.84 carats, suggesting a generous size for each diamond. These diamonds are likely to have a high clarity and brightness, given their prominence in the setting. The term "fancy cut" refers to any diamond shape other than the traditional round cut, indicating that these diamonds may have a unique geometric shape that enhances the ring's visual appeal and showcases the stones' brilliance. Set in 18K white gold—a premium metal choice for fine jewelry—the setting provides a sturdy and luxurious foundation for the stones. White gold is appreciated for its high shine and modern appearance, which does not detract from the brilliance of the diamonds or the luster of the pearl but rather complements it. The gold used in this ring is 75% pure gold mixed with alloys to give it strength and a beautiful white color that pairs well with the clear, icy sparkle of diamonds and the soft glow of the pearl. The ring's design appears to be thoughtfully balanced, with the pearl as the centerpiece. It's a design that would likely stand the test of time, being both classic and contemporary. The way the light plays off the pearl's surface and the fire from the diamonds would be eye-catching. This piece could serve as a luxurious accessory for special occasions, potentially becoming a cherished heirloom due to the timeless design and the enduring quality of the materials used.
