As I was a child I used to put my ear to the shell to hear the stories it had to tell me. Today the gem stones ask me to give a precious shape to their own stories. In my life the Art has oriented my view of the world. Moreover, due to the exercise in plastic art and painting I acquired skills at modulating shapes, as well as the sensibility to transparency and the power of colour. Naturally they drove me to the wonderful Art of gold. In my small atelier I design and realize my jewels by hands applying the ancient art and technique of lost-wax casting.
Each of my jewels has its own name and is a unique piece just as the stories it tells.
So put one of my jewels on your skin and listen to the story it has to tell you.

I pick and choose the gem stones, which are the spirit of my jewels, personally. With pencil and watercolour I draw my idea of a jewel. I am also open to find such solutions for my clients which would comply their desires with the aura of the gem stone. Then, completely by hands I realize the jewel's wax models on the base of the draft applying the very ancient art and technique of the lost-wax casting. Each of my jewels is a unique piece. For this reason I take care of all the steps of its creative process. I entrust my wax models to very skilled casters who are able to give me back a perfect copy of the original and unique wax model. The result of the casting process is an unrepeatable piece which is free from soldering. I also pay a lot of attention to the further steps of the jewel's creation, like cleaning and polishing up the cast item and setting the gem stone in the Jewel. This makes each of my jewels to a little artwork.
