A sustainable and handmade jewelry dish

Keep your rings ready to use by placing them in this one-of-a-kind, sustainable dish. Blue reflections on the surface of the sea inspired the design of the small “riflessi blu” plate, great for your jewelry, but also as a distinctive object to adorn your home.

Why is this piece sustainable? The “riflessi blu” dish is made using recycled copper and the patina is created with household ingredients such as sea salt, vinegar, and more. Can you buy one before they sell out? Of course, you can! Just click here.

Do you see double?

Of course, you do! This is a two-finger ring and one of the many original pieces that have been added to the 2023-2024 Fall-Winter collection. It’s easy to wear, one of a kind, unisex, and totally ready to make a statement on your hand! It’s handcrafted in bronze but a silver version is coming soon. Its name is “ondoso” and its design takes inspiration from a large wave. The ring is available in our online shop and selected stores!

How do I forge silver to make jewelry?

It doesn’t look like an easy metal to work with, but silver is actually malleable and offers the opportunity to create unique pieces. “Forging” is an ancient metalsmithing method that allows controlling the shape of silver and other nonferrous metals by hitting the material with a special hammer. The metal needs to be heated with a torch beforehand.
In the image, this one-of-a-kind pendant (for sale online) is forged using the technique described above.

Handmade napkin holder or scarf slide?

I love handcrafted pieces that can be used for more than one purpose. This unique scarf slide can be easily transformed into an elegant napkin holder! Of course, this piece is nature-inspired, and a snake was behind the design of the adjustable, distinctive piece. You can look how to wear this handmade jewel here!

Hair holder, bangle or necklace?

A high tide (“marea alta” in the language of the designer) inspired the design of this versatile, unique, unisex and handmade 3-in-1 piece. The “marea alta” looks amazing as a distinctive necklace with a chain, as a bangle, or as a hair holder with its own fork (included with this piece). Check out all the possibilities here!

Sea salt for jewelry-making? Why not.

Using household items like vinegar, lemon, sea salt, and water to handcraft jewelry is nothing new. To make unique pieces, it’s enough to use some imagination… and have a basic knowledge of jewelry-making. These “riflessi blu” earrings – inspired by reflections on the water surface -  are handmade using several products that I found in my house. The process takes two to three days, but it’s worth the wait. What do you think?
