Eredi Jovon, 5325 San Marco, On The Rialto Bridge.
Eredi Jovon Venice is a Venetian fine jewelry store currently operated by the third generation of the Jovon family, all experts in the art of hand-carving stone and shell cameos and corals. Since 1934, the Jovon family has occupied their shop on the Rialto bridge in Venice and, from there, provided their handmade and custom jewels to collectors from around the world. Their shop is a well-known destination for high quality hand-made cameos in Venice and is the only shop in Venice that sells locally produced cameos. Yet, even in the bustle of Venice today, and with the renown their work has received, you will still meet the Jovon family - Marco, Alessio and Gabriella - in person at their shop at Rialto.

Botega Orafa, 1839 Santa Croce, On Calle del Tentor.
Jewelry designer and goldsmith Andrea D'Agostino creates beautiful modern jewelry out of precious metals and stones using traditional Italian metallurgy techniques. An authority on metallurgy, Mr. D'Agostino has also taught his technique in Italian universities and is a contributing author to many texts on the subject. The pieces available at Bottega Orafa when I last visited had been made using an ancient technique of layering precious metals that was originally developed by Italian sword-smiths.
