The inspiration for Barry Verragio to start his own jewelry design company, came from his own personal love story. After studying at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City and working for other jewelry manufacturers, Barry was ready to propose to the love of his life. He designed the perfect ring for her, truly showcasing the center diamond with a very unique setting concept that allowed every angle of the gemstone to shine. This type of gemstone setting became the famed Lumino setting that has made Barry’s engagement ring style well known throughout the jewelry industry and with brides-to-be everywhere.

The philosophy of the Verragio designer line of engagement rings and wedding bands is that the diamonds should be enhanced by the mounting and not hidden by it. Every facet of the center diamond as well as the side diamonds should radiate with all of their brilliance without being limited by the ring that they are mounted in. This combination of visual appeal and technology, which epitomizes the Lumino setting, allows the diamonds to show beautifully in each ring, while still being secure and protected.

The Verragio style includes engagement rings, ladies wedding bands and gentlemen’s wedding bands that have a very modern and sophisticated look by using high polish platinum mountings and micro-pave set side diamonds of a high quality in the undercarriage and prongs of the rings. In addition to prestigious platinum, Verragio will custom make any ring in 18kt yellow or white gold, in the proper finger size, and with the center prongs made specifically for the center diamond shape and size of your choice. If a matching wedding band is not currently available for the engagement ring you select, Verragio will custom design the band to your specifications.

In addition to micro-pave, Verragio also utilizes side diamonds of all different shapes, blue sapphires, yellow diamonds, and custom cut baguette diamonds to make each ring stand out. The Belezza cut baguette diamonds are only available in Verragio rings, and are baguette shape diamonds that have more facets than a standard baguette. The brilliance of these baguettes will astonish and amaze.

Verragio also provides engagement ring clientele with a selection of rings displayed in 18kt white gold called the Impressa line. The designs mimic the classic Verragio line, but minimizes the need for special ordering due to its flexibilty that allows our goldsmith to make adjustments to the ring in our store. Regardless of which of Verragio’s amazing designer bridal rings you are interested in, they will come with a 2-year limited warranty on the semi-set mounting and a lifetime warranty against defects in craftsmanship on every ring which you can register online. Come in and see the amazing creations of Barry Verragio in person and allow his inspiration to spark your imagination for the perfect ring for the love of your life.
