Halo Effect
Through the crystalline agate, light penetrates to crown and illuminate each of our pieces, evoking their divine nature and highlighting the clarity of the soul, spirit, and mind. To create this luminous effect, we carefully integrate a microcrystalline quartz mineral called agate into each design. This material, precisely carved, allows light to pass through, creating a captivating halo around the piece.

Who Was Frank Ronay?
Within the Ronay family, originating from Budapest, several members were recognized as the preferred jewelers of the court of Emperor Franz Joseph, the head of the Austro-Hungarian Empire until World War I. Frank Ronay, born in 1887, immigrated to Mexico in 1923 and founded the "Primera Fábrica Nacional de Alhajas, S.A", which was the first professional jewelry factory in Mexico officially recognized by the government.
His extensive knowledge of gems and high-quality manufacturing techniques gave him the necessary prestige to have clients from high social circles, as well as patriarchs of the Catholic Church in Mexico. Thanks to this trajectory and deserved trust, in 1945, Don Frank Ronay was granted the privilege of designing and crafting the crown of the Virgin of Guadalupe to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of her coronation in 1895.
THE NEW CROWN
The new crown, commissioned by the Mexican episcopate and clergy on behalf of the Catholic people of Mexico, and offered to the Blessed Virgin of Guadalupe on December 12, 1945, is a true work of art.
GUADALUPAN MESSAGE
The Guadalupan message originates from a miraculous image that became the fundamental basis of the earthly and celestial bond. It all began when Juan Diego, a poor indigenous man, was walking up the hill of Tepeyac on his way to mass and suddenly saw the apparition of the Virgin.
