The business that requires a lot of patience and dedication was in time taken over by brothers Gabrijel and Luigji in order for the family tradition to be continued. In contrast to larger jewelry sellers, the Koci family cite quality handmade jewelry, made to order, as their forte.
As opposed to former times, when valuable jewelry was held in higher esteem, today only the best quality ensures survival, and amid a plethora of jewelry sellers on the market the Gold Jewelry Store Koci stands out in terms of making unique engagement and wedding rings, as well as having considerable experience in setting in and selecting diamonds, which are among the most desirable precious stones when it comes to wedding and engagement rings.

Engaged couples mostly want unique rings for their big day, so they usually come to the Gold Jewelry Store Koci with concrete wishes, and quite often with finished sketches. As Gabrijel and Luigji say, they create rings in accordance with their customers’ ideas while observing the standards of exceptional quality of making. Customers can choose between gold, silver, and the most expensive platinum, which also happens to be the most demanding in terms of processing.
The Koci family also focuses on coral, stringing and forming necklaces and bracelets from the perfect and maximally processed coral beads, as well as stringing natural coral forms.
The goldsmiths Koci make each piece of jewelry special by engraving whatever you want. The current trend is engraving customers’ fingerprints, which they do manually or with the aid of a computer. By consistently investing in equipment and by following technology trends, while building on the old knowledge and traditional experience, the Gold Jewelry Store Koci in its fifth decade of existence is intent on constantly improving of their service.
They believe that jewelry will always keep its value on the market and that a personal signature is part and parcel of every jewelry store. “Although the growing trend is for goldsmiths to become exclusively ‘designers’ of jewelry, and for computer programs and 3D printers to do most of the work, I am convinced that the human element is not easily replaceable,” says Luigji Koci. This is more than evident from the distinguished tradition of the craft store, whose hard-wearing wooden shop window has successfully defied change over the years.
