Redefining security in the jewellery industry
The founders of Secret Sync announce the launch of the Secret Sync pendant, the first-of-its-kind handcrafted jewellery designed to protect what people love.
At first glance, Secret Sync appears to be a handcrafted jewelry piece. However, hidden within its design lies a tracking device, embedded in the structure. This tracker, which is connected to the wearer’s mobile, allows them to monitor its location in real-time. If a handbag with the precious Secret Sync jewelry inside gets stolen, a simple tap on their phone helps them to trace it.
The founders, Maria Glezelli, a jewelry designer and maker, and Armando Monda, an engineer and digital entrepreneur, saw a gap in the jewelry industry. Every year, thousands of people lose their jewelry due to theft, misplacement, or travel incidents. According to recent statistics, jewelry-related theft accounts for over $100 million in losses annually in the U.S. alone.
“We heard heartbreaking stories from friends and family about lost heirlooms, forgotten rings in hotel rooms, and stolen necklaces. Those stories sparked a desire in us to find a way to protect them,” said Maria Glezelli.
How Secret Sync was born
Maria’s background in jewelry design is rooted in history and craftsmanship. Using an ancient Greek wire knitting technique dating back to 323 BC, passed down to her by her grandmother, she creates lightweight and breathtakingly delicate pieces, all handcrafted. This rare craftsmanship is one of the few remaining techniques passed down through generations.
Unlike other wearable tech products on the market, Secret Sync preserves the beauty and authenticity of handmade jewelry. While most tech-infused accessories prioritize function over design, Maria and Armando decided to put this rare craft at the center of their project, finding a way to create a unique and innovative product.
Secret Sync’s unique features:
- It is made using a rare craftsmanship: Each piece is handmade using an ancient technique, making it an heirloom item rather than a tech product.
- It redefines security in jewellery: The piece can be tracked in case it is being lost, a feature that has never been offered in the jewellery industry until now.
Maria and Armando, the founders of Secret Sync, launched a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to bring this innovation to a global audience. Their vision is to create a new category of jewelry, one that doesn’t just symbolize love and memory but also acts as a guardian for people’s valuables.
