These are "postcards" I made with my new designs Aotearoa inspired!

Regalo para Mama ♥ Gift for Mum

Lucky me, I was visiting Argentina (my home country ♥) just on time to be with my family on my Mum's Birthday!!
So before leaving New Zealand, I made a brooche for her inspired by her love for earthy colours, her passion for wool & textils techniques and the magic of textures!

I used copper to symbolize the browns, oranges and gold colours from the land, hammered to add a nice texture, and I used Sterling Silver as a base plate. The touch of distinction was using my mum's hand-spun and home-dyed wool (all by her! ♥) with local natural & organic pigments lovingly selected and hand picked also by her!! Amazing lady ♥

Here I am sharing some pictures!

Afortunadamente, estuve visitando Argentina justo a tiempo para estar con mi familia en el cumple de mi Mama!

Asi que antes de salir de NZ, hice un brooche para ella inspirado en su amor por los colores Tierra, su pasion por la lana y las tecnicas textiles y en la magia de las texturas!

Use cobre para simbolizar los arrones, naranjas y oros de la tierra, martille la placa para darle una linda textura, y use Plata 925 como placa base. El toque de distincion fue el usar las lanitas hiladas y teNidas a mano por mi mama, con pigmentos locales, naturales y organicos seleccionados y juntados con amor, tabien por ella! Increible mujer ♥!

Aca les comparto algunas fotos!

CUSTOM MADE ORDER

Last Friday I had the awesome surprise of logging into Etsy and finding that someone from the other side of the world was choosing me to make some special rings!

He liked one of the rings I made last year, a Silver U Shape band with three silver dots on top, 100% handmade and very minimalist.

But he wanted his with a bit of a twist: instead of 3 dots, he wanted only 2, and on top of the top plate he wanted a hammered copper plate. And he wanted 2 of the same! 

I was shy to ask what was the occasion, but I thought it is more poetic if I leave it to my thoughts to guess...

Maybe it was for two very good friends that wanted to wear the same rings, maybe they were brothers, father and son... may be it was for a very special date, or something to remember...who knows? could be anything aye?

I'd like to think that it was special anyway... I know it made me feel special making them for them, so that counts as enough, doesn't it?

Here is what he wanted....

Lisa's 21st!! ♥

This summer has been full of fantastic events, birthday parties, weddings, BBQs and more!
One of the sweetest was Lisa's 21st!
Here in New Zealand your 21st Bday is not just a regular day, it is a big thing!
And we were honored to be invited and share with Lisa, Hayden and Sophie this special night!
In the past, Lisa saw my jewellery and wanted me to make her a ring, but we we never arranged it. So her B Day was a great opportunity for me to make something special for her!
Here is Lisa's ring!
