1. What kind of magic do you make?

It is about contemporary jewelry most from silver, brass and copper combined with alternative materials such as cotton, metal colors, wool or wood.

2. Where does your inspiration come from?

I would say the m Most of the pieces, especially unique ones, are named after unforgettable moments, stories and thoughts. Sometimes inspiration comes from the book, social approaches or food :D 

3. What are your favorite materials and tools?

I am in love with silver and it's spectra of various textures and raw colors. Still now days, I often find myself in love with it's final esthetic touch. I like to work with tools connected to the sound. All kinds of hammers, drills, sledges...         

4. What did you want to be, when you were a child?

An air - hostess :D

5. What was the first thing you ever made?

It all began when I started playing with metal, creating sculptures and ornaments - not particularly intending to produce a piece of jewelry, rather just trying to "pin down" something that inspired me and leave a sign.
