JEWELRY DESIGNER

In 1985 Oscar Rodriguez Blanco, following his family’s tradition, and motivated by his knowledge of the jewelry market and his hope for developing it, founded his first shop and jewelry atelier in Viveiro, a small town where he has lived since young.  It was a small 40-square-meter shop-atelier, but it set in motion the Rodriguez family’s project.
Since 1990 the Group Plaza Galicia was the springboard for his works. He belonged to it until its winding-up in 2008.  In 1994, due to the Company’s growth and the need for a wider infrastructure for his equipment, his workshop became one of the most important in Galicia.  From 1995 onwards, Oscar Rodriguez has taken in the international event of Iberjoya in Madrid, showing his new works twice per year. These pieces are the exercise of a combination of creation, aesthetics, and handicraft, with a touch of audacity which makes each jewel a true piece of art.
Throughout his career, he has received important awards and recognition, just to mention the most recent AN Gem Awards, in which he has taken part since their beginning.  Since 2008 his daughter Cristina, having learned jewelry design and business administration in Barcelona and New York, has been working for the company, and she now plays an important role in the author’s plans.  They work together on fresh and innovative collections to which nobody watching them could turn a blind eye.
