The Academy&#8217;s training is provided at the Scuola Arte e Mestieri di Vicenza, a department of the Veneto Productivity Center Foundation, which boasts a long tradition in the area of artistic craftsmanship and which has established itself, over time, as the most authoritative training institution aimed at the artistic and artisan professionalization of the Vicenza area, in particular in the goldsmith sector.<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_121091\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-121091\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Marco-Bicego_Craftsmanship-Engraving.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Marco-Bicego_Craftsmanship-Engraving.jpg\" alt=\"Incisione con il bulino millerighe\" width=\"709\" height=\"472\" class=\"size-full wp-image-121091\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Marco-Bicego_Craftsmanship-Engraving.jpg 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Marco-Bicego_Craftsmanship-Engraving-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Marco-Bicego_Craftsmanship-Engraving-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-121091\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Engraving with the ribbed burin<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nThe training course, which lasts a total of four months, is divided into a series of theoretical and practical courses in the field of hand engraving, stone setting and casing and bench goldsmith work. At the end of the 80-hour training period in the classroom and laboratory, the selected resources will begin a 480-hour on-the-job placement and training program directly in the company. The objective is to train highly specialized professional figures, the so-called talents of doing, to be included in the company where the production process is entirely vertical, end-to-end: from gold melting to quality control. All Marco Bicego jewels are created in the atelier in Trissino (Vicenza), they are made of 18 carat gold, hand engraved with the ancient ribbed burin technique or made with the exclusive coil technique, and are set with carefully selected gems.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I am firmly convinced that craftsmanship must be preserved, our Made in Italy is a brand of excellence that is recognized internationally. Now rare skills and very high savoir-faire are needed, especially in luxury. In our company we continue a century-old goldsmith tradition, still in-house, and I am extremely proud of this.<br \/>\nMarco Bicego, founder and creative director of the brand<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_117348\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-117348\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/marco-bicego-1-copyright-gioiellis.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/marco-bicego-1-copyright-gioiellis.jpg\" alt=\"Marco Bicego.
