Amàlgama Jewels (Italy)
AMÀLGAMA JEWELS
Designer biography:
Giorgia Tasca is an Italian-American designer and artist that lives and works in Vicenza, Italy.
After a formation in classical studies she graduates in fashion design at Iuav University of Venice, where she learns that design is only as lasting as the depth of what it represents and communicates.
After several years consulting as a multi-disciplinary designer and trend forecaster she felt the need to give life to something of her own, something with an expression that had neither boundaries nor compromises.
This is how Amàlgama was born.
Amàlgama is a blend, a fusion, a mixture and in alchemy it’s a term that specifically refers to metal. Amàlgama is about creating rigor and disrupting it with gut feeling, about translating a stream of consciousness, a sensation into matter. This philosophy is embodied in all Giorgia’s jewels that are hand carved and created with lost wax casting, therefore unique and non-repeatable and characterized by an aesthetic register that is organic, tactile and bold.

Collection concept:
Ambrosia Collection
Ambrosia, the food of the gods that grants immortality to those who consume it, symbol of divinity, power and abundance.
This is the title of the collection presented by Amàlgama Jewels by Giorgia Tasca. Each creation stems from the feeling of explosive growth after overcoming difficult changes.
Although it may be the opposite mood of the pleasantness of Ambrosia, the hard work involved in the cutting of old branches grants the same lightness. The gift of new life that explodes in an eternal ever-evolving cycle.
