COLLECTION
The jewellery in the impression collection is reminiscent of a fossilised jumbled jewellery box whose memory has been captured in silver and gold. The collection is part of a collaborative project with a perfume creator and a creative writer. Exploring the subject of fragmented memories, the collaboration found its physical space in an exhibition during Milan design week in April 2023. Each piece of jewellery is associated with a short story and a scent that all together create new narratives.
The Baquette in Lapis ring are associated with this scent and story:
Pepe Rosa- Baie Rose
“Venghi”
mi disse, in italiano sgangherato.
“Le venderò una gemma, o le donerò un ricordo”
a mani vuote dal bazar.
//
“Cam”
he said to me, in ramshackle English.
“Me sell you a gem, or give you a memory”
empty handed from the bazaar.
