About Phillip Gavriel
Learn About the brand
Phillip Gabriel Maroof grew up surrounded by jewelers. Precious metals and gemstones weren’t curiosities to him, they were part of daily life. But it was his time in Florence that gave shape to what would eventually become his own brand. In that city, where the Renaissance still lingers in every corner, he found inspiration in the balance of history and artistry. The experience didn’t just refine his eye, it gave him a vision for what jewelry could mean outside of the traditional boundaries of luxury.<br><br> In 2010 he launched Phillip Gavriel, carrying forward the family’s legacy but with a clear goal: fine jewelry should be wearable and attainable without losing its depth or craftsmanship. From the start, every piece was made with solid foundations: 14K or 18K gold, sterling silver, natural diamonds, and gemstones. He wasn’t interested in shortcuts. The work had to be honest, with materials that spoke for themselves.<br><br> The workshops in Italy and Thailand became central to this vision. Small artisan communities, often overlooked in a world of mass production, were supported through the brand’s commitment to handmade craft. Florence, in particular, gave rise to the Italian Cable collection, a line fully produced in Italy. It offered a contemporary interpretation of an old tradition: jewelry with clean lines, subtle twists, and a sense of everyday luxury.<br><br> What sets the brand apart is not just its materials or origins but the stories woven into each design. The collections reflect Phillip’s travels and encounters with different cultures, translating them into textures, patterns, and forms that carry echoes of where they came from. A bracelet might recall the structured elegance of Italian design, while another piece carries hints of distant places and moments lived.<br><br> For Phillip, jewelry isn’t an afterthought or a finishing touch. It’s a connection between the wearer, the artisan who shaped it, and the places that sparked its creation. His work continues to tie together family heritage, global craftsmanship, and the idea that beauty belongs in everyday life, not only on rare occasions.
