Signed Roggio artisan silver jewelry
The history of the Roggio jewelry brand began over fifty years ago in Philadelphia, when first-year students at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, Victor Roggio (b. 1945) and Susan Roggio (b. 1953) met. It was in 1970 when friendship, love and common interests led to the creation of a brand of unique jewelry. Thanks to the talent and diligence of the artists, their jewelry became popular and was successfully sold in boutiques and art galleries in Philadelphia.
Based in Birchrunville, Pennsylvania Roggio’s Silversmiths business expanded and soon Victor and Susan hired a team of sales representatives to distribute the jewelry to other states. Since 2000, the artists have been working alone, living in Phoenixville, PA, and selling jewelry on their website Roggiojewelry.com.
Each Roggio-branded piece of jewelry is a unique, one-of-a-kind work of American folk art embodied in brooches, pendants, and bracelets. Creating jewelry by hand, craftsmen traditionally used silver, bronze, copper and brass, as well as semi-precious stones. There is no doubt that Rogio’s artistic jewelry pieces are collectible and will rise in value.
