Dirce Repossi
Dirce Repossi (originally known as Zeme Repossi) is an Italian jewellery brand founded in 1929, during the Art Déco era, by Camillo Repossi and Giusto Zeme.
In 1961, Dirce Repossi, daughter of Camillo, inherited the family business and subsequently established the eponymous brand. The company later passed to Dirce's daughter, Vittoria Verderio Repossi, who took ownership until her death in 2020, whereupon the company was bequeathed to her son Jeremy Pession, a graduate of the Polytechnic University of Turin.
Dirce Repossi was established during the Art Deco period (1920s-30s), and their first collections drew inspiration from this era's design and aesthetic sensibilities.
The aftermath of World War I saw a period of creative energy and celebration of life, known as the Art Deco Movement. This period of influence had a profound impact on architecture and consumer products, reaching many European nations.
Notable French artists such as Jean Després, Gérard Sandoz, Jean Fouquet, Raymond Templier provided pieces to renowned jewellery companies Cartier and Van Cleef and Arpels. Whilst Italy adopted the national motto of ‘Vivere e dimenticare il passato’ (‘live and forget the past’) which became emblematic of the widespread movement and mood during this period.
Dirce Repossi was among the many brands influenced by this movement, playing with the modern reappraisal of classic styles, experimenting with colour, light, shape and dimension, to produce captivating pieces of jewellery that evoke an enduring style.
1929: Inspiration from the Art Déco movement lead to the founding of Zeme Repossi, a brand co-founded by Camillo Repossi and Giusto Zeme with the 92 AL hallmark in Valenza, a city known for having highest number of artisan goldsmiths in Italy. They both have great passion in Jewelry and watches.
1930s: The 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale Des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, with its avant-garde ideas and imagery inspired from machinery and modernisation, particularly inspired Camillo Repossi and Giusto Zeme in their early creations.
