Francesca Villa

Francesca Villa's inspiration comes from the mixture and fusion of passions passed on to her by the people she lived with in her early years. Above all, her memories are filled with stories of travel, those of her great-grandfather Nino, a merchant ship captain.

The hallmark of her creations comes from a balance of excellent metalwork and setting skills, superior hand-cut stones and a deeply innovative style. Each piece is created in her workshop in Italy to ensure high quality manufacturing through strict control of each step.

Based on the mixture of subjects, timelines, cultures and memories gathered in found objects, her pieces contain a world in miniature, illuminated by the subtle poetry of emotion.

Discovered in a drawer, in antique shops, flea markets or collectors' shops, these small fragments resonate with the heartbeat of Francesca and others, in all their evocative power.

As a jeweller, she gives the relics of our personal experiences a new life, in utter beauty.
