ANDREEA CARASTOIAN
Biography:
CARA is actually Andreea CARAstoian, who has been passionate about jewelry and geometrical shapes from childhood, starting with Toho beads and modelling clay.
I joined the basic courses organized by Assamblage Contemporary Jewelry School. With my first silver and concrete pieces I was selected to participate in the 2020 First Edition of Romanian Jewelry Week. This experience proved to be an important milestone in my future development as a jewelry designer.
In the last years I took more courses and learned new techniques, working with new materials like gold and bronze.

Times two, continues with different textures and shapes the story of silver and concrete in my jewelry. Every new piece is created with more confidence, looking for a clean and simple connection between the two "grey" materials.
Times three, introduces bronze which brings a warm shade to the silver-concrete combination. I find bronze to be elegant and discrete as a colorful addition to my jewelries.
I believe my pieces become more complex in time, as my knowledge about these materials increases, my passion about them deepens and my techniques improve and multiply.
