Testorelli, the brand founded in 1887, presents “Raíces” (Roots), an exhibition featuring pieces, images, and documents that trace its history and previews the new house in San Isidro.
Miriam Testorelli opened the doors of the Testorelli mansion in San Isidro.
In 1887, José Testorelli arrived from Switzerland to Argentina and put down roots in San Isidro, where he founded the jewelry store that bears his name and is now led by the fourth and fifth generations of the family. With over 135 years of history, Testorelli now opens the doors of its mansion in the heart of the town where it was born, with a special exhibition that marks the beginning of a new era for the brand.
In this new space, located at the corner of 25 de Mayo and Primera Junta, collections of high jewelry, Swiss watchmaking, and exclusive design proposals will coexist in an environment that invites you to enjoy the experience of choosing a piece of jewelry.
The new headquarters combines the century-old heritage of Testorelli with a contemporary design that enhances every detail of its most precious pieces.
As a pre-opening of this space, the brand presented the exhibition “Raíces,” a showcase that highlights the legacy of Testorelli through pieces, images, and documents that trace its history.
The exhibition includes original tools for crafting pieces—some over a century old—found and preserved by the fifth generation of the family, serving as a living testimony to the craft and passion that runs through the history of the jewelry store.
The opening of this new house is part of a brand consolidation plan that reinforces Testorelli’s presence in key areas, bringing its proposal to new generations without losing the spirit that established it as one of the most important jewelry stores in the country.
