About Us
Welcome to The Italian Secret.
I'm Mariana, and my work lives at the intersection of heritage, discretion, and refined Italian living.
I serve as a Lifestyle Concierge and Export Broker, dedicated to connecting international clients with treasures Italy does not place on display, rare wines from historic estates, small-batch olive oils produced with centuries of tradition, artisanal jewelry, and architectural jewels hidden across the Italian countryside.
My journey began as a personal reconnection with my roots.
What I found was more than heritage: I discovered a country where excellence is not advertised, it is preserved. Here, craftsmanship is quiet, quality is instinctive, and true luxury is still created by human hands rather than mass production.
Over the years, I have cultivated relationships with winemakers, artisans, jewelers, and private property owners, people who guard their craft with the same devotion their ancestors once held. Through these connections, I curate access, opportunities, and experiences that are not available to the general market.
My role is not to sell but to select.
To understand what my clients seek, and to guide them with precision toward what aligns with their values and vision. Whether sourcing an exceptional vintage, securing a villa with historical character, or advising collectors and investors, I work with the same principles: quality, authenticity, and confidentiality above all.
The Italian Secret is the culmination of this philosophy
a bridge between Italy’s hidden excellence and those who appreciate the rare, the timeless, and the meaningful.
Here in Italy, nothing is done by accident.
From the simple beauty of a morning coffee to the iconic elegance of Italian automotive design, from artisanal winemaking to timeless fashion, everything speaks of perfection, exclusivity, and dedication.
This spirit inspired me to dive into the world of traditional Italian goldsmithing, artisanal craftsmanship, gourmet heritage, and Mediterranean style. Every piece you will find here, villas, jewelry, accessories, gourmet selections, fashion items, reflects these timeless traditions and is brought to life with care, precision, artistry, and historical value.
The Italian Secret is more than a brand; it is an experience.
A private gateway into an Italy that does not reveal itself easily, an Italy that exists in silence, waiting to be discovered by those who know how to look beyond the surface.
An invitation to explore the best-kept secret of the Mediterranean, revealed gently, respectfully, and authentically, one collection at a time.
If you are here, it is because you seek more than products.
You seek provenance, originality, tradition, rare beauty, and true elegance.
Welcome to The Italian Secret, your gateway to the authentic Italian world.
A secret worth sharing. A life worth living.
With appreciation,
Mariana Stone
