Italian jewellery brand FerriFirenze looks to expand to Middle East via monobrand store

The brand plans to build on momentum it has built in the region with retail outlets, new regional partners and designs tailored for Gulf customers

Dubai: Italian jewellery brand FerriFirenze, which recently held showcases in Riyadh and Abu Dhabi, plans to set up a retail space in the Middle East soon. Without naming the destination, the company confirmed that this will be its second monobrand store following the boutique on Ponte Vecchio in Florence, highlighting the region as a priority for its retail expansion.

As reported by the portal FashionNetwork, Giulia Ferrari, who leads the brand’s design office, said the Middle East continues to be a key market and central to FerriFirenze’s growth strategy. She added that the brand is also assessing the possibility of adding another store in Italy, with Milan and Venice under review for their respective strengths in visibility and artisanal heritage.  

The brand’s expansion in the Gulf has been supported by direct consumer events and partner-led activations. The recent showcases in Riyadh and Abu Dhabi attracted interest from existing clients and new audiences, and further events are planned this year in Kuwait and Dubai. At the same time, the company is reportedly in discussions with regional partners to enter Lebanon, Kazakhstan and Iraq, extending FerriFirenze’s footprint in West Asia.

FerriFirenze’s approach combines retail expansion with a structured product strategy. All jewellery is crafted at the company headquarters in Villa Corsi Salviati in Sesto Fiorentino using primarily 18 carat gold and diamonds. The brand maintains a regular release cycle, introducing new collections every three months, which allows it to adapt to market-specific demand while keeping partner networks engaged. Signature lines include Vito, featuring soft curved shapes; Bubbles, built around rounded forms; and Spettinato, which brings together interlaced gold petals and diamonds in a composition inspired by natural ease and understated elegance. The brand is also exploring oval ring designs for comfort and moving components in many pieces, a technical element that distinguishes the collections.

Beyond design, FerriFirenze positions its Gulf strategy around accessible engagement. The combination of monobrand stores, distributor-supported entries, and regular client events allows the brand to strengthen recognition while tailoring offerings to local preferences. Its presence in more than 20 countries through partners, pop-ups and activations in cities such as London, Seoul, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and Hong Kong provides a framework for scaling its retail model across key markets.

Founded in 2011, FerriFirenze is positioned in the fine jewellery segment, offering designs that combine Italian craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics. The brand focuses on creating collections suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions, while developing its presence in key markets through monobrand stores, partnerships, and targeted consumer engagements.
