COLLECTION

Memories of summer, memories of sun-warmed waters with a rocky bottom and sandy beaches woven with pebbles thrown out by the sea. Wet, salty skin covered with grains of sand. Carefree happiness.

Broken, misty, lazy and warm memories of seaside trips became the inspiration for the PEBBLE collection. And souvenir pebbles brought from the beaches from Nice, Dziwnówek and Lanzarote became the base for the forms in which I now multiply them and set them in rings, earrings and necklaces.

I make the elements of the collection from my own mixture of noble concrete developed in my own workshop. The main ingredient of this mixture is marble.

Artificial stone is combined with bronze cast in the old traditional technique of imprints in the sand. The time-consuming and unpredictable working method makes each of the casts different and unique in its raw simplicity.

The rounded shapes of the stones combined with the uneven, polished surface of the bronze are the author’s interpretation of oversized grains of sand adhering to the body and shimmering in the sun.

MATERIAL

Bronze, as an alloy of copper and tin, is perfect material for casting, especially for sand-imprinted forms. Bronze in jewellery is not varnished. Thanks to this, it retains its health and antibacterial properties. However, this also means that it will oxidise and change colour in contact with skin and the environment. If you prefer the shine of new rather than patina, bronze jewellery can be easily refreshed in a few simple steps, according to the maintenance instructions included with the product or using the tips on the website.

Concrete has the properties of stone, which is its main component, in this case it will behave like marble. Its temperature will correspond to the ambient temperature. This is easy to notice in elements such as bracelets. When worn on the hand, they will have a temperature close to body temperature, a very pleasant feeling.

Concrete can crumble or crack under the influence of impact. Despite impregnation, stains will form on contact with colouring liquids (wine, coffee). However, it will be possible to repair it – depends on damages range.
