The necklace was awarded the A’ Design Award in 2014 and is part of the “Exclusive Collection”.

Made with hand-rolled felt beads in purple shades. The beads are sewn together with coated stainless steel wire which is a very strong material suitable for jewelry. The finishing of the necklace is with a silk cord. Due to its material the necklace is lightweight and can easily change position on the bust. Because of the use of silk cord, the necklace looks beautiful even if it stands asymmetrically.

The In_Spiral jewelry Collection was “inspired” and created to be presented at the Design Lab Exhibition of Athens, in 2015. The “Inspiral” jewelry is made from felt.

It took its name from the spiral shaped beads that cover all the jewelry pieces of this collection. The word “inspiration” is also hidden in this name. The making of the main piece “The Bust” was an incredible experience. More than 200 hand-rolled beads were used in order to decorate this vest statement piece.

“Blooming” project is part of the “Exclusive” jewelry collection. The “Blooming” jewelry project includes two multicolored collar necklaces inspired by colorful flower gardens. For this purpose the designer had to find a colorful medium to make flower like shapes. In addition the goal was to make impressive jewelry pieces by using simple materials and tools. Felt has all the attributes to achieve this goal. It is easy to handle and comes in a wide variery of colors. With felt pieces the maker created spiral shaped beads to make abstract flowers. It was challenging to find a way to use simple materials and shapes to create something unique. 

Created for Atelier Loukia Haute Couture. 

Materials: synthetic and woolen felt, cotton cord, thread, glue
