FASHION: Fashion began as an artisan trade, now fashion is reinventing itself and looking back on its origins, injecting luxury, distinction, and craftsmanship into this new revolution. Jewelry made with artisan techniques has a series of added values: - Manual work, a feature that increases the piece's value by removing series production. - There is a story behind each piece, from the history of the artisan, making the piece, to the region and country where it was born. - The culture and tradition of handmade jewelry makes us consumers more aware of our human origin. - Each piece is "unique" in its craftsmanship, allowing us to wear something exclusive. - These are timeless pieces with fashion that never goes out of style. These treasures bring with them years of tradition that will always remain true. - A bond is formed between the artisan and the customer. This piece of art is made by a human who leaves a part of himself in the piece and in turn passes it on to the future owner.
