Especially since mid-2025, the prices for silver and gold have risen noticeably. Raw materials are becoming scarcer, while silver is increasingly gaining importance as a store of value and is traded more frequently on the exchanges. At the same time, the demands for high-quality jewelry craftsmanship are noticeably increasing.
We want to be transparent and explain why we must adjust our prices in 2026 – and why we will not do one thing in the process: compromise on quality.
Sprezzi® stands for jewelry made from solid 925 sterling silver and genuine gold. For real weight. For true substance. While many brands resort to cheaper materials or lighter constructions, we deliberately stick to what we stand for. The development of precious metal prices makes this path more challenging – but not negotiable.
Silver and gold have reached historic highs in recent months. The silver price has risen by 172% within a year. We have long not fully passed on this development to our customers. Now we must respond in order to continue producing responsibly and economically.

Many makers respond to rising costs by changing materials or reducing weight. Steel instead of silver. Coating instead of substance. Appearance instead of value and weight.
But Sprezzi® designs are not costume or fashion jewelry.
