Danecraft Pins

Danecraft, Inc. is located in Providence, Rhode Island; the jewelry capital of the United States.

 

Although officially formed as a company in 1934, the history of Danecraft has roots which can be traced back to Italy for several centuries to the famous name of Primavera.

 

The Primavera’s were jewelry artisans in the beautiful area of Pescara, Italy.It was there that the family became well known throughout the region for their ability to design and make jewelry for royalty and wealthy families.

 

Often one of the jewelry artisans would go directly into the home of a patron to design and reproduce a cherished object of art into jewelry.

 

This continued in Italy until 1910 when Mr. Victor Primavera, Sr. immigrated to the United States. And although the candlelight has been replaced by fluorescent light and some of the painstaking handwork has been supplemented by modern machine, the rich and beautiful handcrafted look of distinction continues
