No. 62 Jewelry is pleased to present Story, Artistry, and Connection, a solo exhibition with Francesca Villa, on view at No. 62 jewelry from July 1st through July 18th, 2026. Francesca Villa will be visiting Jackson for the first time to accompany her exhibition, and is available for appointments July 8th through the 11th.
Francesca Villa has designed jewelry for some of the world’s most prestigious houses, developing an in-depth knowledge and profound expertise. Prior to setting up her own line, she was the Creative Director of a renowned atelier that designed and produced jewelry for some of the world’s leading international brands. Although this experience was hugely fulfilling, eventually creating successful designs that would be produced in their thousands started to erode her artistic passion. She wanted to create a brand that was closer to her own obsessions for unique and one-of-a-kind treasures; designs that valued storytelling, and the profound connections of people to, and through, art, objects and decoration.
Founding her own brand in 2007, she has built a loyal following of clients who avidly collect her pieces. Her designs are sold internationally in the world’s leading boutiques and department stores. Francesca also creates bespoke designs with her client’s own treasured objects of clients who avidly collect her pieces.
All of Francesca’s designs are realized in her own atelier in Valenza, Italy. Each of her craftspeople, from Goldsmiths to stone setters, from enamel artists to stone carvers, has more than 20 years experience. Their mastery of their craft allows them not only to create pieces with exceptional quality, but also to bring their own technical innovations to the making of each piece. This dedication to craftsmanship can be seen in the finished jewels where perfect settings, vibrant enamel, and sparkling gemstones complete Francesca’s artistic vision. Each element is carefully considered, with delicate engravings, poetic cutouts and secret star-set gems often decorating the underside of each piece. All of the gold used to create Francesca’s designs is recycled, and her workshop is certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council both under their Code of Practices and Chain of Custody certification. This demonstrates the commitment to responsible jewelry manufacture, and supply chain transparency.
