Marco Bicego’s New Campaign Showcases ‘The Art of Craft’
After celebrating 25 years in 2025, the campaign marks a new chapter for the jewelry brand with the message that “Identity Creates Value.”
The campaign gives an inside look at three defining techniques for the brand. Founder Marco Bicego is seen left selecting colored gemstones and an artisan is seen right using a bulino tool to engrave a piece with texture.
New York—Marco Bicego has released its new brand campaign for 2026, “The Art of Craft.”
Following the jewelry brand’s 25th anniversary last year, the campaign marks a new chapter that focuses on strengthening what sets it apart, offering jewels that are 100 percent made in Italy with distinctive artisanal techniques.
The hero message of the campaign is “Identity Creates Value.”
“True value lies in authenticity, in the beauty that comes from the hands, and in jewelry that is instantly recognizable for its unique character,” said the company.
The collection is split into two complementary pillars—“The Art of Craft” and “The Signatures.”
The Art of Craft pillar is a storytelling series that is dedicated to the artisanal techniques and craftsmanship behind Marco Bicego jewelry and highlights the savoir-faire that turns precious materials into the brand’s distinctive creations.
It explores three defining techniques—coil, engraving, and gem selection.

The Art of Craft pillar is a storytelling series that is dedicated to the artisanal techniques and craftsmanship behind Marco Bicego jewelry and highlights the savoir-faire that turns precious materials into the brand’s distinctive creations.
It explores three defining techniques—coil, engraving, and gem selection.
“The Art of Coil” showcases the coil technique in which ultra-fine 18-karat gold strands are spiraled around a golden core for collections like “Marrakech” and “Masai.”
“The Art of Engraving” dives into the traditional hand-engraving method that gives the brand’s jewelry its distinctive texture via a bulino tool.
“The Art of Gems Selection” explains Marco Bicego’s curated approach to colored gemstones, which celebrates the individuality and natural beauty of each stone.
The imagery and video assets feature founder Marco Bicego and the artisans behind the jewelry while offering an inside look at the brand’s craftsmanship.
The second pillar of the campaign focuses on The Signatures, the brand’s iconic collections that have defined it for the last more than two decades.
This pillar builds on the “25 Best” campaign that debuted last year with additional imagery.
Both pillars are built on a cohesive narrative that bridges heritage and contemporary expression.
The Art of Craft campaign debuted on March 17 and can be seen on the Marco Bicego website, social channels, and newsletter.
