MANTZALIN is a design brand for exploring thresholds between the second and third dimension, space and ornament, geometric and organic, structural and ethereal.
Designs are specific for utilization of traditional craft techniques and their combination with modern design methodologies and architectural approaches.
In my jewelry line I combine poetic gentleness of linen bobbin lace from Slovenia region with the elegance of precious metals. Together they form intriguingly curious unique pieces which are entirely hand-made with profound precision of experienced hands /it takes quite few years of practicing traditional bobbin lace-making to gain sufficient feel to execute this delicate and time consuming process/. Special attention during the design process is given to the shape of the body - to fit in the most comfortable way, so each piece can be custom designed for a specific client, specific wardrobe or with a specific idea.
