DISTINCTIVE TECHNIQUES AND STYLES Italian goldsmiths developed unique techniques and styles that set them apart. The art of filigree, delicate metalwork created by twisting and shaping fine wires, became a hallmark of Italian goldsmithing. Granulation, the meticulous application of tiny gold beads, added intricate texture and dimension to jewelry. These techniques, passed down through generations, continue to be cherished and practiced by modern Italian goldsmiths.
