Baron & Diego,
The untold story about Family, Friendship, Love of Art & Heritage!
Our Story
All Started With A Love Story
Baron & Diego was inspired by Sebastian Baron and Diego Valenti, two friends who first met as merchants back in 1873.
Maria, whose childhood was filled with stories about her great grand father’s, Sebastian Baron, expeditions was always fixated on keeping the legacy and the trade of her family alive however she did not know how. Although she was drawn to art & history from her early childhood, she decided to pursue a different career.
After Maria met her husband Henry back in 2016, she shared with him her family story and he insisted that she follows her lifelong dream. She started tapping to her artistic side and began drawing again, until the day she realized her patterns were ready and a door was wide open for her to bridge between her passion for art and her family trade with the help of Henry.
While Maria worked on translating the art she loved into wearable pieces, Henry was rekindling her great grandfather’s connection with another friend he met during his travels in the Far East who specialized in traditional ancient silk screening, whose family inherited the trade and made sure it remains authentic to preserve their heritage and its individuality.
