The Ghezzi family of Zürich has been passionate about jewels and antiques since the 1930s. In the 1940s Giacomo Ghezzi (1914-1995) opened a jewellery shop in the centre of Zürich, next to the Bahnhofstrasse, and one in St Moritz, at Via Maistra. At the same time his wife Philomena ran an antique gallery elsewhere in the city. They both travelled extensively from New York to Tokyo, via Paris, London, Geneva and Hong Kong, hunting for the next treasure to sell.
Their son, Fermo Ghezzi (1938-2006), continued in the family’s passion, obtaining his goldsmith’s degree in 1958, and joining the family business together with his wife Sonja. A gemmologist and admirer of beautifully crafted period jewels, he acquired over his career some of the finest and noblest jewels, varying from important gemstones to jewels with provenance.
