Fabrizio F.

I am a jewelry designer and CAD specialist working professionally since 2012 through my own independent studio in Rome, Italy, where I handle both design and production of custom jewelry pieces.

My foundation in traditional goldsmithing and stone setting comes from direct hands-on training within my family. My father and uncle are both experienced goldsmiths and stone setters with decades of work in Rome, and I was trained early in workshop environments where precision, craftsmanship, and production standards were essential.

Alongside traditional skills, I trained as a wax model maker (lost-wax casting technique), developing strong abilities in creating detailed wax models specifically prepared for casting and fine jewelry production.

In addition to my independent work, I spent one year working in one of the most established and high-volume casting workshops in Rome. There I gained practical experience in industrial casting workflows, metal behavior, quality control, and production optimization under real commercial conditions. This experience strengthened my ability to design not only for aesthetics, but also for feasibility, durability, and efficient manufacturing.

My core expertise includes:

Jewelry design and development
3D CAD modeling (Rhino 3D)
Wax modeling for lost-wax casting
Stone setting understanding and technical integration
Production-ready design for manufacturing
Custom jewelry development from concept to final product

I work with a production-oriented mindset. Every design I create is meant to be technically feasible, cost-aware, and ready for real-world manufacturing without unnecessary revisions.

I also manage my own studio and client projects independently, which has given me strong communication skills, reliability in deadlines, and full responsibility over the design-to-production pipeline.
