What is Versace jewellery made of?

Versace jewellery is fashion jewellery, not fine jewellery. Most pieces we carry are 100% brass, finished in gold, light gold and silver tones, and several lines add crystals. Leather bracelets combine lambskin with brass hardware. Every piece is designed in Milan and is 100% authentic, verified by Coveti.

Which Versace jewellery lines does Coveti carry?

The Medusa lines carry the house trademark, which Gianni Versace adopted around 1993. The Greca is the Greek key border that frames the Medusa in the logo. The Safety Pin goes back to May 1994, when Elizabeth Hurley wore a black Versace dress held together with gold safety pins to the London premiere of Four Weddings and a Funeral. Our profile of Gianni Versace has more on the founder.

Which Versace earrings should you buy?

Start with the Safety Pin earrings at USD 610 in light gold. They are the most direct link to the house’s history and they work with a T-shirt as well as a gown. The Medusa ’95 earrings are the smallest studs at 1.3 x 1.3 cm, at USD 570 in light gold and silver. For more presence, the Medusa earrings in red and gold and in black and gold add colour to the head.

The Medusa ’95 Necklace is our first choice. It comes in two lengths: 40 to 50 cm at USD 820, and 43 to 53.5 cm at USD 720 in light gold and silver. The adjustable chain means it sits at the collarbone with an open neck and lower over a crew neck. The La Medusa Necklace in light gold is the most affordable at USD 610.
