Irantzu: in this jewelry store, special occasions are celebrated with diamonds
The Irantzu boutique in San Sebastián, managed today by the fourth generation of a family of jewelers, displays impressive pieces of fine jewelry in its windows which never go unnoticed by passers-by. The displays dedicated to the Recarlo brand draw special attention due to the shine of their fabulous diamonds. The four C’s (color, clarity, cut, carat) which guarantee the gemological characteristics of natural diamonds are strictly controlled in these pieces: the cut determines the beauty of the gem, as it is what dictates how the diamond reflects light; clarity guarantees the precious stone’s transparency and uniqueness; color refers to the natural tone of the gem (the more colorless it is, the more exceptional it is); and carat indicates its weight (one carat is equivalent to 0.20 grams).
The quest for excellence is an invariable constant when this firm’s diamonds are selected, and said search begins in the mines themselves (said mines comply with the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme), where extraction methods that respect the environment and workers’ rights are applied. Only 2% of the minerals extracted have the necessary characteristics to become Recarlo diamonds.
After passing through the expert hands of the firm’s jewelers in Valenza –professionals who transform this wonderful gift of nature into unique and exclusive jewels– each piece is provided with a QR code to allow customers to see the gemological certificate (the certificate, in turn, is guaranteed by the Responsible Jewelry Council).
The elegance of Recarlo’s designs comes from Piedmontese royalty, from the noble gestures and knowledge of the place where this firm was founded. The blue color –the official color of the House of Savoy, around which Recarlo’s pieces revolve– has become an element in and of itself that fuses classicism and the contemporary.
At Irantzu, they have a wide selection of diamond solitaires, bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and rings from different collections. All of them have been developed by the best artisans, combining both traditional techniques in the art of jewelry making and the most innovative technologies for optimal selection of the best materials. A marriage proposal, an anniversary, a graduation, a birthday, a birth, a communion, etc. – special occasions must be celebrated in style, and at Irantzu they are committed to celebrating them with exceptional pieces of diamond jewelry.
