Topázio is a brand offering gold and silver products, owned by Ferreira Marques & Irmão, SA.  Their  family business was founded in 1874 in the historic city of Porto, Portugal, by Manuel José Ferreira Marques, and is still owned by its descendents. The history, the knowledge, and the care in the manual work of noble materials began with the casting of gold wire 140 years ago by the hands of Manuel José Ferreira Marques.

Using all the knowledge acquired by manual labour in gold pieces, Topázio began working on the first pieces of silver in the 1920&rsquos, but it was not until 1930&rsquos that registered its first exclusive pièces. By the 1960`s, Topázio was a renowned brand of handcrafted jewerelly in Portugal, and at this point it decided to present itself for the first time at an international level, participating at the Hannover Messe exhibition, and claimed its position as a true worldwide silverware producer.

The price of silver as a raw material reached a peak during the 1970's. Reacting to this situation, a new adventure started for Topázio with the production of silver plated items. This allowed the company to continue to manufacture its beautiful designs, to the same quality it has become renowned for, but at a fraction of the cost.

Christofle Thanks to its creations in silver, Christofle is a symbol of luxury and elegance. Since its founding in the mid-19th century, it has been a continous innovative force and has infused each era with a new art of living. Thus, over time, this prestigious company has revolutionized styles, techniques, and methods for the production and distribution of silver plate and the decorative arts.

A player in and privileged witness to the evolution of taste, customs, and traditions, Christofle has always seen its name associated with major creative trends, renowned artists such as Man Ray or Jean Cocteau, avant-garde architects such as Gio Ponti, and modernist silversmiths such as Lino Sabattini and Christian Fjerdingsatd, as well as present-day designers such as Andrée Putman, Martin Szekely or Ora ïto.
