"BRAID"

Silviya, Italy

The braid is an ancient and universal symbol representing strength, union, and spiritual protection. Weaving hair (or other materials) connects body, mind, and spirit. It is a sign of cultural identity and tradition, and in various cultures, it signified social status or marital status, often also evoking fertility and purity.

"BRAID" reproduces the braided shape, offering a sophisticated and handcrafted design made of glass.

Its versatility makes it suitable for both everyday and elegant looks.

La treccia è un simbolo antico e universale che rappresenta forza, unione e protezione spirituale, intrecciando i capelli (o materiali diversi) per connettere corpo, mente e spirito. È un segno di identità culturale, tradizione e, in varie culture, indicava lo status sociale o lo stato civile, spesso evocando anche fertilità e purezza. 

"BRAID" riproduce la forma intrecciata, offrendo un design sofisticato e artigianale, fatto in vetro.

La sua versatilità fa in modo che si adatti a un look sia quotidiano che elegante.


The Designer

Silviya, Italy

I am passionate about the world of Art since the childhood, which gradually involved me and the artistic passion burned within me more and more I approached to understand its secrets and mysteries, as long as it has not become an integral part of my life.

I express this feeling through ballet, painting and poetry. I was about 4 years old when I started with my very first drawings. My initial "style" was black and white, pencil or charcoal on plain paper and then, later on, as I grew up, I moved onto canvas. So I took the courage to use colors too - pastels and for about 20 years now, I've been using acrylic paint and my style has become modern abstract. 

I often experiment and create, inventing personalized techniques such as painting with sugar, for example, which requires a specific handle to be able to fix it on the canvas.

I am passionate about painting and also about product design. I am also a Product and Lighting Designer specialized in bringing together a sensitive and creative passion to light, with the ability to create quickly innovated individual superb designs that are fully functional and practical. I am interested in create design that makes a difference, always remaining extremely flexible to the needs of individuals and communities on a large scale in an international and global aspect. I find inspiration from all sources in the full awareness that what I create can even change a person's inner experience for the better and I put all my love into the process of creation. People will remember how you make them feel. And I love make people feel special, important. 

I have participated and continue to participate in many international competitions where I am often awarded for my artistic works, which are highly appreciated by critics.
