Bringing a millenary symbol into the language of contemporary jewelry requires sensitivity, technique, and vision.

With the Arco Collection, founder Antonio Cardamuro envisioned a dialogue between ancient architecture of the Arco Felice, the Roman arch that once marked the entrance to the city of Miseno, and modern design, transforming the majesty of the classical arch into a fluid form that embraces balance, harmony, and contemporary style.

Every element of the collection originates from a precise design, where architectural proportions merge with the sleek finish of metal. The curves, smoothed like stone shaped by time, follow a continuous rhythm that recalls the geometric perfection of the arch, yet offer a contemporary interpretation — feminine, dynamic, and refined.


From Vision to Matter

Behind the purity of the lines lies meticulous craftsmanship. Every form is shaped, every stone set by hand by Miseno’s master goldsmiths, who transform ideas into living surfaces. The arch takes form through a sculptural construction, where each element interlocks with the next in a dialogue of solidity and movement, fullness and void.

The ARCO necklace, for example, transforms its iconic arc into a flowing pattern of interlocking links, each echoing the sculptural curve until they come together to cradle a 5.31‑carat Colombian emerald. With shimmering emerald accents, the necklace merges architectural precision with fluidity—subtle yet powerful, reminiscent of a talisman, yet boldly contemporary.



Interpreting the idea of “passage” — central to the creative vision — meant transforming an architectural symbol into a tactile and luminous experience.

The result is a jewel that does not imitate the arch but captures its essence: the upward tension, the continuity of the line, the sensation of perfect balance — of eternity.

A New Language of Elegance in High Jewelry

The Arco Collection is not only an homage to Miseno’s heritage; it stands as a manifesto of design, fine jewelry, and craftsmanship, where the strength of the symbol is renewed through the delicacy of detail.

From rings to bracelets, pendants to earrings, each creation is a small act of aesthetic engineering — where Antonio Cardamuro’s creative vision, combined with Italian savoir-faire, transforms memory into new light, illuminating the present and the future of the woman who wears it.
