Since 1920, jewelry has been a family legacy for the Repossi's. It all began when Alberto Repossi's grandfather opened the first High Jewelry factory in Piedmont, northern Italy. In 1978, Alberto Repossi, along with his wife Gio' Giove Repossi, inaugurated their first store in Monaco, followed by another in Paris' Place Vendome in 1986. By 1994, Repossi became the "Official Supplier of H.S.H. the Sovereign Prince of Monaco." His exquisite creations have adorned royal families and celebrities, including Princess Diana's engagement ring offered by Dodi Al Fayed in 1997, and the engagement ring for H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco's future wife, Princess Charlene of Monaco.
