Tessitore1888 company was founded in 1888 and it’s now led by the 4th generation.
In 1935 the company started to focus on the handmade production of TuboGas jewels.
The first examples of TuboGas bangles can be found back in the roman age when 2 gold lines were intertwined together in a special new way. This kind of fabrication was called “snake chain” due to the elasticity and length. This kind of jewels could be worn on every part of the arm thanks to the gentle grip it produced. Even if it was technically different from a modern TuboGas jewel we consider it his first ancestor.
The first TuboGas jewels as we know them today, appeared in the 19th century in Italy and France. This traditional handmade production, even if it’s always been present in the Italian jewelry culture, kept evolving during the last centuries.
For the first time TuboGas became the “leading actor” of a famous collection of rings, bangles, earrings, necklaces and also watches.
