You don’t know her, but you know of her.

You’ve seen her walk in beauty and elegance, an ethereal figure in the Eternal City, her eyes filled with mystery and wanderlust. She’s traversing the Spanish Steps in the Tridente district, her white dress floating behind her like a cloud. When she stops to smile at the way the Trinità dei Monti church is framed by sunset, the light from the dipping Mediterranean sun catches her earrings, bathing the world in a golden glow.

She is... the spirit of La Dolce Vita!

You don’t know her, but you hold her in your heart.

As you dream of your next travel destinations, you carry images of her traveling to all the places you’re yearning to explore in Italy, from the scenic landscapes of the Amalfi Coast to the rolling hills of Tuscany. She raises a glass of champagne to the sea, always dressed to the nines yet exuding a bohemian, barefoot luxury.

The salty smell of the ocean complements her perfume.

She waves at you and you can’t take your eyes off her dazzling Positano Ring, with its bold and textured, gilded brass; its Sandy Opal crystal surrounded by white crystals like a halo. This is a woman who knows how to drink life to the lees; the movie star who dares to defy expectations and step inside a fountain like no one is watching her… although everyone usually is.

You don’t know her, but you yearn to become her.

You practice Italian phrases in the mirror while you collect inspirational images like breadcrumbs, longing to feel the Mediterranean air tousle your hair and the sun caress your skin. You delight in carefully curating your wardrobe to express your style and sensuality but at the same time you know that clothes are just the accent stones to the gems of your heart. You see fashion as a leisurely game, a way to nod to your favorite actresses, those golden icons of the Cinecittà, while at the same time staying true to your modern sensibilities.

As you pack your bags for your next adventure, you make sure to include your Luissa earrings.

Their effortlessly elegant construction, rendered in lustrous gold-plated metal ensures the whole world will be your runway — while their hammered finish conveys a contemporary twist that speaks to your soul.

You don’t know her, but you’ve always been her.

The spirit of La Dolce Vita lives within every woman — and here at Christian Zane, our jewelry aims to help you bring her to the light. As the world reopens and your dreams become your plans, find your inner Italiana in meticulously detailed, handmade pieces that are destined to catch the eye.

Allow your inherent theatricality to roam free, whether you’re strolling at the farmers’ market in Testaccio or taking in the ancient ruins at the Colosseum.

Rome is a state of mind, after all.

And the spirit of La Dolce Vita will follow you no matter where you and your Christian Zane jewels will travel next...
