Casato in Italian means noble family. The Gauttieri family is of French origin and is one of the most antique noble families in Europe. Federico Gauttieri ancestors have participated in the first crusade in Palestine. They have sold everything they had to create the biggest possible army and since then the motto of the Gauttieri family is “sans avoir”. If any of you happen to visit Cesarea, an important Roman port centuries ago and today city in Israel, you will find a sign at the entrance of the historical site, which is narrating the enterprises of Gautier Sans Avoir, a noble man from Avignon, who first lost and then re-conquered the port.

The dragonfly was chosen by Federico Gauttieri as a symbol to represent his vision of femininity. The delicate shape and the elegance of the dragonfly, perfectly translate the iconic vision that Federico has about the woman: delicate, elegant and beautiful. These three elements together work as a constant inspiration for Federico who visualises his inspirational Muse in the same way.

Every single Casato jewel is designed, created and handcrafted in Casato Atelier. All creations are made with special attention to detail and with unique accuracy, to be worn every day and on every occasion.

The Casato jewellery soul is undeniably Italian, just like Federico Gauttieri who creates and designs every item, was born and grew up in Rome. Casato collections have always been inspired by the Eternal City, the magnificent birthplace of Baroque style, which has influenced the brand’s style since its foundation. The environment around so deeply artistic and the skill of artisans with years of experience with a tradition of making high jewellery, contributed to taking Casato to the place where it it positioned today

Loyal to the finest Italian goldsmith tradition, Casato creates top quality jewellery in a constant quest for the perfect harmony between creativity, stylistic consistency, innovative technology and craft skills. Casato jewels are made in 18kt yellow, white and rose gold.

For all of its jewels, Casato chooses exclusively natural stones carefully selected by expert gemmologists according to strict quality standards that Federico Gauttieri, CEO and Designer, applies as a guarantee to its products.

The term ‘hard stone’ is improperly used to designate semi-precious non-transparent stones (onyx, opal, agate, etc.), which are different from the transparent semi-precious (amethyst, blue topaz, peridot, etc) and they differ from the classic precious stones such as sapphires, rubies, emeralds, diamonds, etc. All gemstones are classified according to different indexes, one of which is the hardness index, specifying the level of resistance to scratching and chipping. Gemstones traditionally used in jewellery generally have a high hardness index, yet as hard as a gemstone may be, it is not necessarily indestructible, and a gemstone set in an item of jewellery will still be delicate. Even small knocks, though not deliberate or direct, may scratch or chip a gemstone. Diamonds themselves, which are famous for being the hardest stones in nature, are not immune to breaking.

Size Guide

Every diamond used in Casato Collections are purchased by RSJ certified suppliers: the goal of RJC is to define a responsible supply chain respecting human rights, avoiding countries in conflict, protecting the environment and attending correct management practice. White diamonds have a clarity between VVS-VS and F-G colour, while for black, brown and icy diamonds it is not possible to apply 4C quality standard. In such cases colour ranges of materials, clarity level, shining and cut are defined by the Company.

The re-sizing of a ring - also depending on the difference between the starting size and the end size requested - is often a very delicate work that could undermine both the structure and the appearance of the ring, especially for styles where natural stones are exposed. To protect its products and customers, the Casato re-sizing service meets strict qualitative standards and entails an estimate for fully remaking the ring whenever re-sizing is judged unfeasible. For a ring’s re-sizing,, as is generally the case for any after-sale activity, it is highly unadvisable to turn to unauthorised laboratories that do not know the manufacturing process in detail, and are consequently highly likely to damage the jewel.

Unfortunately, we should take into account that the various aspects of image resolution and screen set-up may influence the perception of the gemstone’s colour when looking at online pictures. Maison Casato selects natural gemstones only with care and expertise – and it’s for precisely this reason each gem may differ slightly from another, as in nature there are no two identical gems.

The warranty covers the products for 24 months from the purchasing date in the invoice.
