Buccellati Opens Two Valenza Academies to Train Jewelry Artisans

Richemont says both programs offer more than 200 hours of training. The course notices in the company’s materials specify 230 hours for burin engraving and 240 hours for stone setting.

Buccellati says the strongest participants may receive an employment offer at its Valenza atelier after training; an offer is not guaranteed for every graduate. The academies turn artisan skills development into a production-capacity question for luxury jewelry.

Richemont has identified Valenza as an important center for its jewelry maisons and has previously reported investment in manufacturing facilities and workshops there. Training engraving and setting locally can help preserve techniques that depend on extended hands-on practice.

Prospective applicants can contact valenza@foral.org. For.Al’s Valenza training center is at Via Raffaello 2. Applicants should confirm the specific course schedule, eligibility and required documents with the center; its public information says some free training depends on program approval and eligibility.
