Ready for Milan Design Week 2019: 9/14 April 2019

I’ve been selected to participate and my goody box is ready to head over to Milan Design Week 2019 starting from the 9th - 14th of April. Organised by: http://www.artistarjewels.com/aj/en/2019.html#about-us

Here is some info for the event if you so wish to attend:
>

Din - Design In returns for the seventh consecutive year. It’s in a stimulating district of Milan Design Week: the Lambrate Design District, where visitors can get lost in quality exhibitions created by designers and independent entrepreneurial realities, schools and international academies.

The exhibition site is a former industrial warehouse of 2,000 square meters, where Promotedesign.it will create an experiential path, discovering and carefully selecting innovative brands, young labels and historical brands to show the best that the contemporary design scene has to offer.

Je vous souhaite un bel été x

Announce de vacances • Vacation notice

....... 20 Juillet - 1 Aout • 20 July - 1 August .......

It's that time of the year again to kick back and absorbed some much needed Vitamin D and jump off the grid for a bit. As for me, I like taking a bit of time of here and there, not the entire 4-5 weeks of straight vegetation like most French people do – unbeknownst to me the extent of seriousness they take it!

Tomorrow will be your last day to order anything and potentially have it sent of before my return on the 1st of August, unless it's bespoke to which then you'll have to wait.

Here are some new pieces I'd made ready-to-ship online.
See you when I return! Stay fresh.

NOUVELLE EXPOSITION PRINTEMPS/ETE!

Here are all three of the exhibitions I'm participating in this Summer!

A little info about the pieces my Gallerist are hosting:

GREEN:

LOVE JEWELS:
Curated by Smitten Collective, will be exposing my 'Naughty Bits' collection (by my evil twin Rokxia) in Hasselt, Belgium also. A group 13 International Art Jewelers who's work falls under the same theme come together just for this event.

Lastly...
L’ÉPHéMèRE:
A boutiques de créateurs run by Cyril Besson has a handful of my best selling pieces from Minicyn – they're based in South of France, Toulon. The intimate event composes of a handful of French movers and shakers.

Vive les bijoux!

Too hot to Blog!

It's been a while yes I know.
Since the last post I'd delivered 3 packages with lots of goodies for 3 different galleries, two in Belgium and one in Toulon, South of France. Not to mention jetting off in between to Milos, Greece with my yoga buddies for some much needed time-out.

Below are just a few pieces from the week! Mixing Oxidised Silver with gold and Silver & gold-plated etc.

Take care under this intense heat x

Indulgent Keepsake Pebble ring band

In the last few weeks I've been tinkering away with an unused electric tool that's been tucked away for at least 3 years to date. It allowed me to create this Indulgent of a ring. It feels somewhat courageous and daring in many ways; artistically, spiritually & perhaps even spatially... liken to some sort of artistic "coming-out". It was fun! And I hope to prolong this journey in 2018.

 Happy Spring to all in Europe!

Ode to pebbles and broken slate rock souvenirs

 

Most of us at some point in our lives have taken home pebbles or broken bits of slate rocks as souvenirs from the beach. The weight of them makes it so desirable to have them in your hands, to at some point either throw them back into the water or to take home – I for one am guilty of that each and every time.

This small collection is an ode to that human gesture/desire that makes us who we are, curious collecting creatures.

Available now online.
