The difference between a signed piece of jewelry and an unsigned one is comparable to the difference between a painting bearing the signature of a world-renowned artist and an unsigned work of art. A signed piece of jewelry, silver, watch or objet d’art most often bears the name or insignia of its maker, which is generally a firm with an established international presence and is prized for quality of craftsmanship, innovative design, uncompromising attention to quality of gems and whose pieces are synonymous with luxury and taste. Most often, a jewelry house bears the surname of its founding father and has been continued on for generations by ancestors of the original lineage. Many of the worlds leading jewelry firms have written major reference works on jewelry, count royalty, business moguls and celebrities among their clientele and have shops in capital cities of Europe, Asia and America.
