37 Blackbirds Jewellery

I graduated in Architecture at University of Bologna in Italy, and worked in different areas of design. Visual arts have been my passion since I was a child. My silver jewellery making adventure started in St John’s Central College in Cork in 2015, and I was instantly captivated by the magic of working with metal. I find a lot of inspiration in nature and I love including its elements in my jewellery. Walking in the woods or on the seaside is one of my favourite ways to recharge. I like bringing a little keepsake from a walk that I particularly enjoyed: a twig, or a seashell, or an interesting-looking rock. Including natural elements in my pieces reminds me of the soothing effect of being in nature, and is also a way to recreate the “keepsake” ritual. I work in silver using traditional silversmithing techniques, and in silver metal clay, an innovative material created with pure silver particles, and offering infinite possibilities as it is soft and malleable, but turns into pure silver after firing at elevated temperature.
