Vincenzo Carità opened his first workshop two century ago. He was only 30, in the 1834, but he gained the recognition he deserved at the Bourbon ‘s court. The Austrian queen Maria Teresa chose to wear one of his necklace, a very exclusive and refined masterpiece, so Carità’s workshop, in the old goldsmith's quarter “il Borgo degli Orefici” near the harbor, became the home of a group of young and talented people eager to be educated by him.
A Carità Giovanni and then again a Vincenzo (these two names rigorously alternate one after the other over the time) has driven the workshop first and then the company, present all over the world, from United States to Japan. The merit of the transformation has to be attributed to the entrepreneurial attitude of Gianni Carità, who has driven the company starting from the mid-seventies. According to the dictates of modern management and business organization, Gianni Carità set the foundations to create a world- wide success and gained the recognition as Cavaliere del Lavoro, in the October of 1997.
