Bangle bracelets: other new works in "Intrecci" line :)

From when I'm back from Ireland my inspirations took me to work a lot on the "Intrecci" line: you can see results in the bracelets and necklaces I posted some days ago, and also in these new bangles, for now available in red, antique pink, silver and green (but soon in many other shades!).

The "Intrecci" bangles are completely hand made in the CartEssenza's lab with paper maché and other recovery materials: they're really light, colourful and *in their own little way* help recycle :)

Since they're not adjustable, I make them on your size: contact me to have yours!

New necklaces and bracelets from the "Intrecci" line: ARCOBALENO - ACQUA, ERBA, CIELO - INVERNO

Finally I found the time to take photos of some of last creations which came out of CartEssenza's lab: they wait only to be showned ;)
I'm talking about three necklaces, with as many matching bracelets, of the "Intrecci" line: hand painted papier maché beads create color lines to wear on neck or wrist.

N°1: ARCOBALENO - Necklace and bracelet

N°2: ACQUA, ERBA, CIELO - Necklace and bracelet

N°3: INVERNO - Necklace and bracelet

Papier machè celto-ligure Bracelet ♥

Dear friends of CartEssenza project,
I would like to start saying thank you to you all for the warmness with which my ring "The Way To Your Heart" for Bijoux d'Autore 2012 has been welcomed; I wish this work to be the new starting of my activity at it's best :)

To prove this, in these days of silence I worked on new creations, between which I present you this new kind of bracelet, inspired by the history of my beautiful region, Liguria:

As you know CartEssenza takes a lot of inspiration from past's art, and in this case the design went to match to another creation I made on commission for my friend Donatella: the celto-ligure bowl, inspired by her love for archaeology and of our friendship, born precisely on an archaeological excavation <3

Who knows if my friend will even like the bracelet version? ;)

I remind you that all CartEssenza's creations are made with papier maché and recovery materials, hand painted and signed, and protected from water and time with resin :)

Bye to all, see you soon!
