Collection concept:
For years, my love for jewelry creation has fueled my artistic spirit. I strive to create a unique work of art with each piece I craft. Inspiration comes to me by itself with authenticity and honesty I put into my creations, allowing them to tell their unique stories. DRAGONY collection started with a love for dragons. Because I am a mother of three children, dragons have accompanied us for years. They represent my abstract version of these creatures. I like to mix techniques and materials. I cut all the elements by hand. In this case, they are made of brass or silver, covered with 24k gold. These are my latest works, created since 2023.
