    I'm the owner of an Antique Shop with my mom and my sister in Milan. I've study at the Brera Fine Art Accademy. I love re-elaborate things, materials and find a different use for them. I firmly belive in the sharing economy, that's why I'm here.

Shop policies

Last updated on January 9, 2016
The idea of making brooches was born after I've found a large quantity of playset animal in an abandoned plastic bag, and I didn't want to throw them away.
The name of my shop was granted: my first activity as resin floor layer was GingerLab. And I've found a little Zoo and a Company of other object trouvè! But for "let's pin it" was a short movie that help: it calls "Mug It" about a man who want to put a mug-handle on everything, as I started to do with pins.

Because of the toys are vintage, some imperfection could occurred.
I fix every brooch and cut every label manually.

Some brooches have a number some other don't. Where you find a number it means that there are some of that kind: for example Tiger # 1, # 2 etc but they are all different. Where you don't find any number it means that it's the only one I found.
