What the mind draws the hand creates
A thought that becomes a project, and what the mind draws the hand creates.
I believe in the value of everything with passion, commitment and love is created from the hands of a craftsman, able to make an original and unique object.
I was born in Tuscany, in Prato, the city of beautiful fabrics. After my studies I had the privilege of working alongside an 'architect, the renovation and interior decoration. Only after several years I realized how this great woman and professional I have passed in terms of aesthetics.
The life he was then taken to move to Rome, with my husband, where our family has grown. And if you become a mother of two children meant to crown my first big dream, an added value to my life, from the point of view business it has changed so much.
For 10 years I found myself do work that I did not love, anything but creative in which I have never heard realized and appreciated.
When I finally found the courage to leave him has spent little time before riscoprissi pleasure to think, to imagine, to plan and to shape everything.
I thank my husband Claudio gave me the first input to launch into this adventure, she has supported the choice to finally do what I have always been passionate, and my daughters Greta and Sofia greeted with enthusiasm this new exciting activities .
At that point it was enough to open the drawers of memory: a childhood spent in a house where there were always the pattern, seamstress chalk, a dress on the sewing machine, a fabric to choose the oldest textile shop of percent Prato historic.
My mother packaged itself, for me and my sister, beautiful clothes. And looking at her I learned ...... ..
The history of all my creation is written in the apartment where I live, by a sewing machine, small dots data by hand, by hours of careful and meticulous in every detail. So much love and passion for what I do I try to translate them into objects unique and unmistakable.
I chose the wool felt because it is one of the oldest fabrics.
The oldest traces of felt date back to the third millennium BC when Greeks and Romans used it for making clothing, hats, cloaks. Russians to pack valenki, the typical boots; nomadic peoples of Central Asia, used it to shelter from bad weather. The tents of the Mongols, the yurts are built with a frame of poles covered with sheets of felt.
A non-woven, without horizontal or vertical, without warp or weft, pleasant to wear and suitable to be compared to any other material. Soft to the touch, extremely strong and durable, natural, biodegradable and water-resistant.
