Our Story
A family Story and a Time-honored Tradition of Craftsmanship
It all began in 1959 when Mr. Pino Miserendino opened his first jewelry store on Saint-Zotique Street in Montreal's Little Italy. His passion for jewelry and attention to detail quickly made his store a reference point for the Italian community. Customers appreciate her personalized service and the exceptional quality of her pieces. Faithful to the family heritage, Marco and Paola Miserendino continue the tradition of excellence today. Now the benchmark for jewelry and a luxury watch boutique in Montreal, they make it a point of honor to offer the same quality and attentive service as their father. To do so, they travel the world and participate in the biggest international jewelry fairs. These privileged encounters with Italian artisan jewelers enable them to unearth the most refined creations and offer them to their discerning clientele.
1992: A Turning Point for the Jewellery Store
When Marco and Paola Miserendino joined their parents' jewellery store, they quickly realized how to take customer service to the next level. Taking over the reins of Bijouterie Italienne, Marco and Paola adopted prestigious brands such as Rolex and expanded their selection in their luxury watch boutique in Montreal to better meet the growing demand for quality, socially responsible jewellery.
A jewelry store where excellence is certified
Since June 2017, Marco Miserendino has held the official title of Certified Registered Jeweler from the prestigious American Gem Society. Founded in 1934 by a small group of jewelers, this professional association now includes jewelers, retailers, and suppliers, as well as individual members, whose mission is to protect consumers, ensure ethical business practices, and maintain high standards of gemological expertise. Given the highly selective criteria of the committee (only one jeweler in 20 meets the rigorous requirements necessary for membership), Marco Miserendino and the luxury watch boutique in Montreal have achieved a remarkable recognition that underscores the jewellery store's excellence.
