Italian goldsmith tradition and watchmaking excellence
On the occasion of Haute Jewels Geneva 2026, Dolce&Gabbana presented its universe of Fine Jewelry & Watches, flanked by exclusive creations of High Jewelry and Haute Horlogerie that enhance the Italian artistic, cultural and historical heritage in the world, focusing on manufacturing excellence and the innovative spirit of artisans.
The creations are developed around an idea of luxury with a strong identity, built on gems of great value, recognizable designs and refined techniques. From the jewels of Fine Jewelry & Watches to the limited editions and unique pieces of High Jewelry and Haute Horlogerie, a universe takes shape in which the Italian goldsmith tradition and the excellence of watchmaking come together in creations capable of expressing sophisticated lightness, surprising chromatic harmonies and extreme attention to detail.
Among the most significant novelties stands out the Dolce&Gabbana Fine Jewelry Anna collection, which interprets elegance through color, brightness and craftsmanship. Rings, bracelets, earrings and chokers in pink, yellow and white gold are enriched with a selection of precious stones with important carats (amethysts, citrines and Swiss blue topazes) in dialogue with diamonds. To complete the collection, new watches arrive entirely set with amethysts, Swiss blue topazes, colorless topazes and citrines, in a precious synthesis between jewelry and watchmaking.
The Devotion collection is also expanded with a new jewel-watch in which the Sacred Heart, an iconic symbol of the Dolce&Gabbana creative universe, becomes the case of the timepiece itself. Forged in yellow gold and embellished with diamonds, the model is paired with a yellow gold bracelet with a hammered Milano link. The maison also offers it in an even more precious version, entirely studded with colorless diamonds with a coordinated pavé dial.
The Eleganza collection is enriched with new sets that develop the dialogue between classicism and modernity through a wide and sophisticated palette of stones. Amethysts, peridots, rhodolite garnets, aquamarines, London Blue topazes, pink tourmalines, morganites, citrines, sapphires and diamonds give life to necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings. Alongside these creations, the collection also includes models entirely made of white gold and diamonds, offered in a limited edition of only one hundred pieces.
Among the novelties also stands out a jewel-watch to be worn both as a bracelet and as an unexpected chocker, made of yellow and pink gold with pink tourmalines, pink sapphires, rubies and diamonds. The model pays homage to the Italian goldsmith tradition through the art of twisted thread, used to frame gems and create a refined woven effect. A small tone-on-tone enamelled gold flower at the end of the chain and a butterfly with enamelled wings embellished with pink tourmalines complete the timepiece with a poetic and distinctive accent. This model is also made in only one hundred units.
In the panorama of the Dolce&Gabbana Fine Jewelry collections, Eleganza stands out for its sophisticated designs and chromatic harmonies built with London Blue topazes, amethysts, aquamarines, peridots, rhodolites and sapphires, which through different cuts and volumes give life to compositions of great romantic charm.
The Devotion collection, on the other hand, continues to make the Sacred Heart its absolute emblem, declining it in necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings embellished with colorless diamonds, rhodolites and black sapphires, in balance between baroque decorative richness and delicacy of freshwater bows and pearls.
With Sicily, the maison pays homage to Sicily, its roots and its symbolic imagery: large crosses adorned with precious stones, engraved or hand-enameled votive medals and rosaries with black jade and sapphires or in a more essential version entirely in yellow gold compose a story of faith, memory and Mediterranean culture.
The Rainbow collection , on the other hand, translates the great Italian goldsmith tradition into a chromatic explosion built with topazes, rhodolites, amethysts, tourmalines, citrine quartz, peridots, tanzanites, aquamarines and kunzites, enhanced by the twisted thread technique, one of the most emblematic expressions of Italian filigree.
Rainbow Monocolore moves along a more essential line, entrusting color with an absolute role. Gold threads and DG logo give shape to pendants and necklaces embellished with gem sets characterized by intense shades of the same shade. Spring & Butterfly, on the other hand, looks at nature and the Mediterranean landscape, evoking the bright season through red garnets, morganites, aquamarines, citrine quartzes and amethysts, with flowers, butterflies, small roses in Mediterranean coral and bouquets transformed into poetic jewels.
The Filigrana collection translates the art of lace into a series of precious creations, reinterpreting its iconic motifs in yellow gold, diamonds and brightly colored gems. The Royal collection brings the symbol of the crown back to the center, interpreted in different variations and embellished with rubies, sapphires or black diamonds, while the Cross collection reinterprets the cross as a sign of identity, protection and cultural memory, through earrings, necklaces, rings and pendants inspired by the opulence of the Sicilian Baroque.
A separate chapter is that of the Limited Edition line, where the mastery of Italian artisans is combined with the creative imagination of Dolce & Gabbana. Each jewel is made in only one hundred pieces and stands out for the originality of the design, the strength of the artistic inspiration and the rarity of the gems.
The Dolce&Gabbana Watches universe brings this same vision to the field of watchmaking. The maison's timepieces are born from the encounter between Italian design and Swiss know-how, with a process that goes from design to engineering to assembly through highly specialized skills.
Sofia fits into this context, a model with elegant and refined shapes, with refined stepped cases that develop geometrically from the outer edges to the sapphire crystal and surfaces worked according to a technique inspired by ancient gem carvers, capable of generating unprecedented reflections. Each watch is thus transformed into an authentic and unique piece of wrist jewellery.
The Rainbow is proposed as a jewel-watch animated by colored gems in different cuts and shapes, while the DG7 combines timeless style and versatility through clean lines, satin and brushed finishes and dials marked by Roman numerals and linear indexes. The Leopard is distinguished by a very rich decoration obtained by manual engraving with a burin on the case and on the folding clasp, in homage to the glories of another era.
The Manifattura Italiana Collection, on the other hand, embodies Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana's love for the Handmade and for the culture of the Bel Paese. Here, decorations inspired by the great Italian artistic tradition are combined with a watchmaking vision of the highest level. Each model is made in only ten pieces and is equipped with one of the variants of the DG 01.01 manufacture movement, owned by Dolce & Gabbana and assembled by hand by the master watchmakers of Geneva.
In Dolce&Gabbana's unique masterpieces, Haute Horlogerie, refined craftsmanship and high-performance mechanical micro-engineering come together thanks to the use of excellent complications such as the Minute Repeater and the Monopusher Chronograph. Each collection expresses a creative universe applied to jewellery and watchmaking, capable of arousing timeless emotions, an expression of Italian culture, technical mastery and an absolute desire for beauty.
