What We Love
A Vito Inspired design – designed by Catbird as an homage to Vito and his magical trunk of gems.
A one of a kind pair of earrings, designed by Catbird, inspired by the world of Vito Giallo – artist, antiques dealer, and quintessential New Yorker.
Made in our Brooklyn studio using solid 14k gold, peridot and diamonds.
In honor of our collaboration with Vito, the Catbird Giving Fund is proud to have made a donation of $40,000 to SAGE, a national advocacy and services organization in their mission to look out for LGBTQ+ elders.

DesignerVito Giallo, artist, illustrator and antiques dealer, was Andy Warhol’s first apprentice and the first to give Warhol a show in 1954. Vito’s antiques shop across from the Carlyle at 966 Madison Avenue was a destination for Mark Rothko, André Leon Talley, Jackie Kennedy, and Andy – who visited every day. In 1969, Vito came into possession of a trunk full of gems, and other than selling a few to Andy, he saved them since then. 53 years later, we were so proud to present Catbird x Vito’s Gems.
