Literary Treasures,
For Book Lovers' Pleasures.
In a world dominated by automation, AI, 3D printers, and robots taking over, I embarked on a journey to connect to the timeless world of literature and reading, which counts thousands of years of human wisdom, imagination, and culture.
Jewellery is not just an accessory, but an expression of one's true self. The Novelty Collection is built on the idea of exploring ourselves and tapping into our inquisitive human nature through the timeless stories that shape our identities.
My first jewellery pieces are a small representation of the symbols I grew up with; the stories I inherited from my country and the cultural tapestry that has woven its way through my life. It draws inspiration from the universal history and folklore that have been passed down through generations, preserving the essence of these narratives in a few wearable forms.
