EST 1991

A passion for pearls

Founded by Rosario Autore, The AUTORE Group is one of the largest South Sea pearl companies in the world, and is a family owned & operated business based in Sydney, Australia. Rosario’s commitment to the industry for 38 years has truly revolutionised the international wholesaling of South Sea pearls.

The development of a comprehensive pearl grading system and valuation service, along with Rosario’s personal approach to business, earned the Group recognition and the respect of wholesale buyers, retailers and consumers around the world.

A Vertically Intergrated Operation

From farming, grading, valuing, wholesaling, jewellery design and manufacturing to marketing, AUTORE is a dynamic, advanced and vertically integrated pearling group. AUTORE’s pearls are sourced directly from their South Sea pearl farms, owning and operating 10 farm sites. Harvesting in excess of 350,000 pearls per annum, the AUTORE pearl farms are situated on some of the world’s most beautiful coastline – from the crystal-clear waters off the North and Western coasts of Australia, in Broome & Elizabeth Bay, to the tropical islands of Indonesia, in Lombok, Sumbawa and West Java.

Nature's Greatest Gift

Born in the intense blue waters of the South Seas, their entrancing luminosity reflects the light of the sun, the glow of the moon and the beauty of the waters that nurture them into being.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Innovative Design

The AUTORE Group prides itself on being at the forefront in regards to jewellery design, researching not only jewellery trends but fashion, colour and textile directions too. The AUTORE team of designers, technicians and jewellery experts strive to create innovative and contemporary pearl jewellery. Under the highest levels of quality control, each piece of jewellery is designed specifically for pearls using the finest materials and craftsmanship. Each pearl is individually hand-selected for each piece of jewellery by skilled technicians who match the pearls to the hues and tones that will best suit the precious and semi-precious stones in each piece. The pearl is not an accessory to the jewellery; it is the focus of the piece.

Autore Jewellery collections are synonymous with combining spectacular aspects of nature as well as architectural heritage-inspired motifs. New collections are regularly designed, based on research and trend analysis in jewellery, fashion, interiors and colour directions. Autore also has a range of classic pieces which are the company’s best sellers and can be found in the Timeless collection. Within each collection, Autore has a range of pieces covering design and price points from Ready to Wear jewellery, to Couture, one-off and bespoke pieces.
