Giovanna Torrico
Giovanna's work with vintage sequins is the result of years of collecting and preserving materials, which she has translated into contemporary jewelry. Suspended on steel wire and combined with a range of innovative elements, the sequins allow continuous movement while revealing their sculptural and aerial quality. These sequins, last cut in the 1930s, are a precious and disappearing resource. Their exceptional shapes, the uniqueness of their size, color, and texture, give each piece a delicately organized architectural aesthetic. Each collection is designed and hand crafted in her Oakland, CA studio, featuring limited edition and one of a kind pieces.
