Un espacio vacío que, poco a poco, es transformado hasta que toma su forma final.

 Irina Moise - PINKMOSS  Irina Moise / PINKMOSS  « I like change, I always did. I think it represents this period of my life and I think I’m doing it consciously. »

 Viktor Pavlov Viktor Pavlov – “Fascinated by the qualities and the symbolical meaning of the gems I asked myself: why could not be created pieces of jewels having these characteristics but without using the real material of precious stones?”
Jewellery designer Viktor Pavlov, graduated in the “Metal” Department of the National Academy of Fine Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria, often uses recycled materials with the aim is to reflect the problem of eco-fashion and to raise awareness toward the overuse of non-degradable materials.

Elena RistovskaElena Ristovska – « I had one thing on my mind while I was creating this collection, to create a new planet. This planet is a place where, just for a brief moment you can hear your own voice, you can feel balanced rhythm of your heartbeat. »

 Velislava Urieva BozhinovaVelislava Urieva Bozhinova « With my work I want to represent the relationship between human and nature. Nature as an inspiration for the organic shapes of my works and the ready mades created by the human are the main keywords for my concept. »

 Raluca Buzura Raluca Buzura – “Being structured as an organized person, I wanted this time to go beyond and push my feelings to an irregular type of construction. It was more like an experiment over me, how much can you detach from a habit, a pattern that you got used to?”

Coup de coeur : Andrea Coderch Valor

Classé dans : ADOR (IT),Andrea CODERCH (ES),COUP DE COEUR,Espagne (ES),Shibuichi — bijoucontemporain @ 2:16

Petit point après petit point, petit trou après petit trou, lentement retracer le souvenir … (cf collection « Querida Yun » d’Andrea Coderch Valor)
le temps du souvenir,
le temps de la mémoire,
le temps de l’apprentissage,
le temps de faire,
avec patience, méticulosité, amour ….
ainsi tisse le temps ….
et la beauté ultime, souvent reste trésor caché (le dos du bijou étant souvent encore plus beau que le devant …)

From 2011, at Alchimia school, some projects began their life under the Peter Bauhuis & Doris Maninger guidance :

The Hana Collection : Japanese kimono flowers are the source of inspiration for the Hana Collection. Once a silhouette was selected a series of jewelry techniques were applied to transfer the design from fabric to metal.  With the same care and attention as can be seen in many Japanese art forms I applied the same delicacy to each individual piece. Gold, Silver, Shibuichi (a Japanese alloy), wood, silk and nylon thread are the materials in which I worked in to represent my vision of Japan.
The « Querida Yun » Collection :​​ « Dear Yun: We have known each other since I was born but we have never met. I want to fill up the space between us by making a piece per day dedicated to you. It is time to go further, not only with the written words. I know you are very old and feel tired, but wait a little bit more, I am finally coming to visit you. Your friend that loves you. Andrea ».
The result ? at first a letter each day, with the result of 150 brooches. One per day during 6 months. (2012 Gold, silver, japanese fabrics). and then, more and more jewels. FANTASTIC jewels !

Shibuichi (四分一?) is an alloy which can be patinated into a range of subtle muted shades of blue or green, through the use of rokushō treatments. Its name means « one-fourth » in Japanese and indicates the standard formulation of one part silver to three parts copper, though this may be varied according to the desired effect. A 5% silver / 95% copper alloy is also marketed as « shibuichi ».[1] A wide range of colours can be achieved using the whole range of alloy compositions, even above 50% silver. 90% Copper and 10% Silver for a dark grey and down to 70% Copper and 30% Silver for lighter greys.[2]It is a common misconception that both copper and silver oxides form, but in fact a detailed study has shown that only copper oxides are formed on the copper rich regions of the material’s microstructure, while the silver rich regions are left largely untouched.[citation needed]
For most of its history, shibuichi was mostly used to ornament various fittings for katana until the Meiji reforms, when most swordmakers began to make purely decorative objects instead. The material is often used in mokume-gane combinations. Similar alloys have been used elsewhere but the use of shibuichi to achieve different colored patinas appears to have remained nearly unknown outside Japan, until recent interest from artisans in the West.
