For many years, I have expressed myself through jewelry—working on a small scale, shaping precious metals and stones into pieces that people carry close to their hearts.

Recently, I felt the need to explore a different language. Clay found me.

This is my latest sculpture, and every new piece teaches me something I didn’t know before. I am fascinated by the challenge of giving personality, emotion, and presence to a simple block of clay. It’s a slow process of observing, correcting, and discovering.

I don’t know exactly where this journey will lead, but I know I’m enjoying every step of it. Learning something new after so many years as an artist is both humbling and incredibly exciting.

Thank you for following me as I continue to grow—not only as a jeweler, but as a sculptor too.

𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 (Bracelet)
This wide cuff from the Basket Collection is sculpted through an elegant interplay of fine sterling silver threads (925), woven and layered to create a surface that catches the light with every movement. Its structure feels both strong and fluid, like a form that has grown naturally around the wrist.
Designed as a hinged piece with a nearly invisible closure, it wraps the wrist with effortless precision, revealing nothing but its seamless beauty.
Bold yet refined, luminous yet grounded, this is a piece that doesn’t ask for attention, it holds it.

Creation is often a journey of returning to things that have quietly lived within us for a long time.

Ceramics has been one of those passions for me.
More than twenty-five years ago, during my summer holidays in Sweden — a place I return to every August — I took my first course at the potter’s wheel. I was fascinated by the transformation of a simple piece of clay in the hands — the softness, the patience it requires, and the magic of seeing form emerge from earth and water.

Over the years I returned to ceramics several times, taking new courses and continuing to explore this material. Yet life eventually led me to dedicate myself fully to jewelry, another deep passion that became my main creative language.

Now, after many years working with metals and precious materials, I feel a natural desire to reconnect with clay and bring it into my artistic universe.

I have recently begun experimenting with ceramics again, exploring forms, textures and possibilities. This process is still unfolding — a space of research, curiosity and discovery — but it is already opening exciting new directions.

Soon, a series of unique objects created in ceramic will emerge from this exploration.

For me, ceramics is more than a material. It is a return to the origins of making: earth shaped by hand, transformed by fire, carrying the quiet beauty of time and touch.

And I am very happy to welcome it into my creative world.

Zanzibar was one of those places that truly touch the soul ✨
We went in search of rest, pleasure and beauty… and found all that, and so much more.

Between beaches with unreal waters, walks through Stone Town and encounters with such a warm and friendly people, I followed a ritual I carry with me on every journey: learning about local culture also through jewelry and gemstones.

Visiting the Tanzanite Museum was a special moment.
This fascinating stone, discovered in Tanzania only a few decades ago, exists nowhere else in the world — a rare gem, blue-violet, intense, almost magical. A true jewel born from African land.

Travelling with curious and attentive eyes always reminds me why I create:
to transform places, stories and emotions into soulful jewels 💙

Zanzibar, thank you for so much inspiration.
