Everyone that knows the contemporary Italian fine jewelry brand NANIS, knows the driving & creative force behind the brand: ravishing Laura Bicego. We also know that behind every strong woman, there is a strong man. Laura’s strong man is Piero Marangon, the CEO of NANIS Jewels. The magic duo behind this luxurious and colorful brand are life partners and co-founded NANIS Jewels back in 1995.
Where Laura is responsible for the designs and the creativity of the company, she also is unmistakably the face of the company too. As they are in such a symbiotic partnership, Piero takes care of everything else within NANIS Jewels. Where creativity is very important, craftsmanship & quality are equally important when manufacturing high-end handmade jewels. And, this is Piero’s responsibility.
Ace Jewelers is a family owned and run business, like NANIS Jewels. Ace Jewelers’ founder and father of current CEO used to do business with Laura’s father. So, the relationship between NANIS and Ace is warm and runs deep. We are very humbled that Laura has come on the show twice already:
And, although both our viewers and we would love to have her back on the show. We wanted to show the magic behind the designs: the craftmanship of NANIS. Piero is very humble and does not like to take the limelight, but it took us a few seasons of arm twisting to get him on the show. He will sit down with Ace Jewelers’ Alon Ben Joseph and they will take a deep dive into what makes NANIS so special.

The Ace List – Live with Vincent Perriard of ORIGYN Foundation – S03E01
For the first episode of the third season of The Ace List Live we are very honoured that watch industry veteran and web3 innovator Mr. Vincent Perriard, co-founder of Swiss ORIGYN Foundation, sits down with Ace Jewelers’ own Alon Ben Joseph.
Vincent Perriard earned his stripes in the watch industry at TechnoMarine, Concord and HYT Watches. A few years ago he had the vision to co-found a DAO that developed a technology that can authenticate luxury objects by using the ‘micro structure traceability’ of the actual object. The certificate is then minted as a NFT and stored on the blockchain.
Ace Jewelers will be the first retailer to start issuing these ORIGYN certificates of authenticity for wristwatches. Read the full press release HERE.
