Exoticism guaranteed... Do not miss their creative vein on a series a customized pairs of tongs … the accessory that particularly symbolizes Brazil …
For the first time there will be an Israeli pavilion, with 7 participants showing jewellery and accessories.
The Philippines is also returning with 15 participants.
The names to watch:
Fili Plaza (Spain): collections combining bronze, silver, leather, coral and lava… The “Duality” collection takes as its starting point a sculpture of a man’s chest, in the form of belts, bracelets, necklaces…
Thereza Paula Lino (Brazil): colourful creations combining the natural materials of Brazil – coconuts, bamboo, string, wood - … as well as glass and resin.
Monty B (United Kingdom): large pieces of ethnically inspired jewellery using pearls, gold, silver, diamonds, semi-precious stones, rhodonite, bone, horn, cotton, coral, agate and a particularly original material: fish skin!
Shanica (Netherlands): jewellery belts mixing leather, denim, semi-precious stones, crochet … and for a touch of humour, this amusing tie for a dog!
Michael Michaud (Germany): this designer produces collections of plant-inspired jewellery: highly realistic flowers, leaves or fruits worked in bronze, semi-precious stones and pearls.
Françoise Iberl (Germany): sober, geometrical and refined jewellery that highlights the beauty of the materials used: bone, coral, skin, sponge, coconut, lava, aluminium, and, finally, cow horn, her signature material.
Duals (Brazil): 3 designers who exclusively create necklaces. They skilfully combine silver-plated chains with natural fibres in bright colours: wool, silk and cotton threads, leather ties …
Caboclo (Brazil): the first company to launch jewellery and bags using seeds from the Amazon rain forest (“biojoias” concept). Highly “ethnic” and environmentally friendly themes (they even recycle materials from unsold pieces in new designs)…
Vendula (United Kingdom) very glamorous in style, with the purses being a real attraction.
Wendy Mink (USA): gold, vermeil and gilt are the materials of choice. Her “knitted” line is produced by a team of Tibetan women.
Time it (The Netherlands): TIME IT, a watch like no other. No hands, no face, just an illuminated line that moves along a flexible silicone or leather ribbon. It is a strap incorporating LEDs that is wrapped around the wrist and alters our perception of the passing hours. It’s a watch but it’s also a fun, illuminated jewel, a means of recognition that flickers in the dark. All kinds of colours, images, materials and finishes are possible. Every taste is catered for.
TIME IT and its development have been the subject of an exhibition at the UQAM Design Centre in Montreal.
1001 Retalhos Industria (Brazil): exhibiting separately from the national stand, this Brazilian specializes in bags made from a mix of fabrics, with patchwork and canvas playing a leading role in young and playful models.
Thais França (Brazil): a collection that is both delicate and daring, combining the sensuality of lace with the strength of silver. Exclusive, striking and feminine pieces for an authentically Brazilian product that cannot leave one indifferent.
