Dallas-based luxury jeweler welcomes an exclusive line by Italian fine jewelry designer Marina B.
By Naomi Kayser
Thanks to an exclusive partnership with Bachendorf’s, fine jewelry lovers across the DFW area will now have access to the custom handcrafted work of one of the most influential women in jewelry design of the 20th Century.
Founded by Marina Bulgari, a third-generation member of the famous Bulgari family of jewelers, the Marina B collection curates years of heritage and articulate artistry for North Texas shoppers.
Rooted in the designer’s Italian heritage and deep history with fashion design, the Marina B brand represents a dedication to handmade craftsmanship — a value that aligns with Bachendorf’s attention to bespoke luxury. When the jewelry house expressed interest in expanding to the Dallas area, the two brands’ similarities made the partnership feel natural.
Today, creative director Guy Bedarida continues the legacy of Marina Bulgari, encapsulating a sense of modern timelessness in his collections. The new Marina B line at Bachendorf’s replicates that, bringing classic Italian craftsmanship to DFW.
Italian legacy reimagined for Dallas-Fort Worth
Recognized as one of the most influential female jewelers in the 20th century, Marina Bulgari has pioneered distinctive silhouettes and techniques that make Marina B a sought-after brand.
The line at Bachendorf’s features Marina B’s namesake designs, with pavé diamonds and the “chestnut” stone cut frequenting the collection. The brand’s ties with Bulgari bleed through as well, featuring an interpretation of the luxury jeweler’s acclaimed “tubogas” design — a coiled, snake-like construction found on the rings, bracelets and necklaces of the line.
Additionally, each of the gemstones used in the collection are verified natural stones. Bachendorf’s accreditation as a member of the Natural Diamond Council and the Jewelers of America ensures customers are purchasing authentic jewelry of the best quality possible.
Each of these defining features is emblematic of Marina B and its artisanship, transporting a uniquely Italian style to DFW jewelry collectors.
Craftsmanship rooted in rarity
What distinguishes this Marina B line is its exclusivity to North Texas. Each piece of the collection, along with individual, one-of-one items, is only sold at Bachendorf’s.
“Something special about the brand is their archives — original sketches from Marina B. that she had done in the past, and they never were made,” said Fallon Bock, Vice President and Buyer at Bachendorf’s. “Some of these sketches are now being translated into one-of-one pieces that have never before been produced for collectors today.”
When customers purchase one of these archival designs, they carry a part of the brand’s legacy with them. Whether prized as a collector’s item or worn day to day, each ring, bracelet and necklace forms a connection between heritage and contemporary design that can survive generations.
How to shop Marina B
The Marina B collection is showcased at Bachendorf’s storefront at the Shops at Clearfork in Fort Worth, where customers can browse and try on the curated designs in person. The collection is also available at Bachendorf’s online store for those who prefer to shop from home.
