CERASELLE

SPAIN
HANDMADE JEWELRY Ceraselle is an italian fashion workshop that was born in Spain. We design modern minimalist high fashion accessories that can be customized by every woman. Ceraselle is handmade jewellery that uses the fusion of ceramics, leather and metals to create collections that are carefully designed to be worn with great ease. When modelling and carving clay, the limits of the material are explored and pushed to their extremes. The glaze variations we use are the direct result of a great number of chemical formulas, that reveal, after firing, the wonders of high-temperature effects such as countless hues, colours and textures. All products are handmade with two layers of high quality Spanish leather, laquered, edged and tooled with manual pressure machines. Website: www.ceraselle.com |

ART MEETS HANDBAGS "Handmade handbags designed in Rhode Island. Our handbags are sure to spark fun conversations. In 2003, after an exhibition of my computer - generated art failed to result in any sales, I cut the pieces up and sewed them in to bags. They sold immediately. Fast forward, we now sell in several hundred boutiques and specialty stores and enjoy a worldwide cult-following of collectors. Each piece is made in our atelier in Rhode Island. I still sew and sign each piece. Art can happen in unexpected places. And a dressy outing accented with one of our pieces can often be an opportunity to make new friends. Whether you are one of our early first patrons, or a new collector, it is an honor for me to make something that I know you will enjoy using." - Kent Stetson Website: www.kentstetson.com |

SUPERLEGGERA

ITALY
A LEGENDARY CHAIR When is a chair not just a chair? That’s when the seat in question is the Superleggera Chair, originally designed in 1949, but not produced and marketed broadly until 1957 by premium Italian furniture maker Figli Amadeo Cassina. Designed by iconic Italian designer Gio Ponti and named for its lightweight and streamlined profile, the Superleggera Chair defined a new day for functional, highly appealing and elegant design within the larger wave of modernist innovation. This powerful combination of simplified strength made the Super-leggera an immensely popular creation. Aesthetically pleasing while also groundbreaking in its lightweight design, this chair is still in production more than half a century later. The Superleggera Chair: A commercial success based on simplicity, practicality, and elegance. Website: www.cassina.com |

MARIPOSA

SPAIN
INSPIRED BY A TIMELESS ARGENTINIAN CHAIR Lars Kjerstadius once came across a classical Argentinian design. The “Butterfly Chair” consisted of leather and steel and was originally thought of as a smart fusion between craftsmanship and industrial production. Lars’ admiration for this beautiful design and concept led him to dedicate ten years of his life to improving its comfort and style. Mariposa, meaning butterfly in Spanish, is the result of creating a butterfly chair for the modern inhabitants of the 21st century.
