THE INSPIRATION BEHIND OUR BRACELETS
The Fleur de Lis was our first bracelet. This symbol represents our culture: what we were, what we are and what we’ll be. If you’re born in Florence you know what we mean, but even if you are not, just spend a single hour in this city and you’ll understand.
The other designs blossomed like flowers in spring: Infinity, Queen of Hearts, Eternity Love and Heart are the fruit of our romantic side.
The salty closeness of the sea, inspired our nautical collection of bracelets: Anchor, Rudder, Sailor’s Node and Compass Rose represent eternal symbols of stability, fidelity and desire for to explore.
Spirituality, destiny, fortune encouraged us to produce talismans in which people could find themselves: Cross, Angel Wing, Hand of Fatima, Skull and Horseshoe.
We believe strongly in the values that our bracelets communicate: the Italian spirit and culture, a feelings of loyalty, belonging, and spirituality. That’s the reason why we have chosen to produce them, and that’s why people from all over the world are in love with our bracelets.

OUR STORY
Sec of Florence was born on June 20th 1990 in a small artisan workshop of 40 sqm in the heart of Florence, an historic neighborhood in the heart of Florence. After working together for years as apprentices in a renowned workshop, SEC founders, Massimo Spinelli, Paolo Ermini and Stefano Cherici (the name SEC comes from their initials), decided to start their first business by making silver picture frames. The company grew so quickly that the little shop soon moved to Borgo San Lorenzo, in the Florentine hills, and became a large manufacturing site, in order to cope with the demand for these high-quality hand-made products.
