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 fragmented chain necklace is associated with this scent and story:
Velvet memories - profumo d’ambiente
Mi perderei ad inseguire
le orme dei ricordi; ambisco al futuro;
a un mistero senza fine.
//
I would lose myself in following
the footsteps of my memories; I aspire for the future;
to an endless mystery.
