When Rock Dresses in Gold
Some pieces are created in silver and remain that way, while others are so iconic that sooner or later they are transformed into gold.
El Capitan and University of Rock'n'Roll are among them. These two rings were originally crafted in 925 sterling silver and are now also available in a more precious version.
El Capitan Dorado: The Same Seal, a Different Light
El Capitan was conceived as a ring for those who are their own captains: a symbol of authority not inherited, but earned. El Capitan Dorado is a reinterpretation of this design in 18K yellow gold (also available upon request in white or rose gold)—a chevalier ring designed for the little finger, featuring a 2-carat Mozambican garnet at its center, engraved with a three-pointed lozenge motif, with the sides adorned with burnished ramage and volute decorations.
11 mm wide, 15 grams of gold: the same bold presence as the original, El Capitan, with the warm glow of the precious metal replacing the dark contrast of silver.
University of Luxury: The Skull Becomes High-End Jewelry
If the University of Rock 'n' Roll is the degree you earn through life experience, the University of Luxury is its evolution in the world of fine jewelry: a central skull in 9K rose gold, illuminated by 0.96 carats of brilliant-cut white diamonds set in the eyes and along the two side bands, mounted on a hand-polished, burnished 925 silver setting.
18x18 mm, 23.5 grams: a piece inspired by the same design that earned Manuel Bozzi the Premium Young Designers Award in 2007, now reimagined with gold and diamonds.

Gold and Silver: The Same Soul
In Manuel Bozzi’s world, gold does not replace silver—it complements it. While burnished 925 silver captures the shadow side of the Rockmantique spirit, gold captures its light side—the same tension between rock and romance, between rebellion and refinement, interpreted through a different material.
This isn't some luxury endeavor for its own sake. It's proof that a true icon can hold its own no matter what material it's made of.
