From rough to ring
Our atelier in Bangkok. An Asian location with an Italian eye.

The founders
Nicoletta & Mario
Pedra began with a stone and a question: what should it become?
Nicoletta Rosati travels, and the pieces carry what she brings back — a colour from a market, a line from a doorway, a shape that stayed with her. She draws every design.
Mario Guido Rossi is a gemologist. He sources rough and cut stones worldwide, from the gem markets of Chanthaburi onward, and follows each piece through cutting and setting in our Bangkok atelier.
Italian by origin. Made in Bangkok, one stone at a time.
