NEW Collection Autumn 2021
History
The history of Better Silver unfolds over four decades, starting in 1977 when Romano Bettinardi began making silver chains in his garage in a village just outside of Vicenza Italy, in the prestigious Gold District. Over the years the company has grown to become a vertically integrated industrial reality with factories in Italy and Romania. Today, some 20 million chains -- basic and fancy chains, as well as chains with stones and finished jewelry designed around chains -- and components are produced every year.

Manufacturing Verticalised manufacturing based on 4 synergistically-linked manufacturing facilities, which ensure efficient continuity throughout the processing phases. These processes include melting, machining, welding, diamond-finish polishing, finishing and electroplating. Organised Lean Manufacturing process strives for constant improvement. Technology plays a fundamental role within the company and all manufacturing processes are in fact automated and performed by the state of the art machinery.
Quality The company focusses closely on the quality of its products, starting with the purchase of raw materials from the main precious metals merchants, in all phases of manufacturing, right up to shipping goods with our chosen carriers. On that score, it achieved ISO 9001 certification from SGS Italia certifying body in 2008. And from 2012 it achieved TF (Traceability and Fashion), the voluntary traceability certificate that allows products in the Gold and Fashion production sectors to qualify as Made in Italy.
Technology Adopting cutting edge goldsmithing and metalworking technologies, and highly experienced professional staff makes Better Silver a company that constantly seeks to evolve.
