jewellery breaks with tradition. Playing with proportions, her creativity brings about novel concepts and shapes. In Lia’s rigorous design practice, setting the limits is as important as exploring the possibilities; reason and emotion form a well-tuned pair. With clean, sculptural lines, these jewels are flawlessly crafted, their beauty long-lasting. Lia understands metals and their properties. She masters a variety of techniques, including casting, welding, and inlay. Her Milan atelier is home to the craftsmen, designers and goldsmiths who collaborate with her. While pursuing innovative solutions, her work is also engaged in conversation with classic expressions of Italy’s manual-crafts tradition. Lia Di Gregorio has created precious ornaments for the body since 1986. She is inspired by art and architecture in their classical and contemporary forms, and is passionate about fashion, plants and flowers. Lia’s jewels are found in upmarket concept and lifestyle stores. Her production, that is entirely handcrafted in Italy, also includes custom-made pieces, carefully designed to a client’s specifications.
