I draw my inspiration from my Italian heritage , my love of antiques and anything vintage, my travels abroad, and time spent in my garden. Each design is handcrafted in my studio, a model is sculpted and cast in pewter. Various elements are soldered and finished to create my multi layered botanical inspired work. Semi precious stones, vintage glass, enamel work, and crystals are used to create unique and beautiful combinations of colors. Much attention is paid to detail, turn a piece over and you will find a bee, dragonfly, butterfly, or a flower, or perhaps a pair of hands or a bird in a nest closure. All of these original features distinguish my work and are often considered timeless and collectible by my patrons.
