Natalia Brilli Jewellery / Accessory designer

[Scott]

^i know i love that pic too! with the deer antlers in the backdrop...sums her work up so beautifully i think. i agree too....i love the feel of her overall work....the textures and the materials....like with the pearl beads....all in leather! and again,everything she does is handmade too which makes her work even more special and unique.

i have no idea who did the rose petal pieces on the so-en cover. i noticed it also made mention of my other favourite jewellery designer,Yoshiko of Yoshiko Creation....it might've been both together....which seems like a dream for me.

btw,seven new york carries her line so when they get some new stuff on their new section of their web site i am thinking of getting a piece. i definitely want something because they seem like such treasures and for me,utterly romantic.

 

[softgrey]

great stuff...
where is her showroom?...

is she paris-based now...
i assume she is at least represented by a showroom there...

 

[leyla m.]

scott, i never knew you had put up this thread!

soft, she is under valery demure 's showroom who has IMO some of the best jewelry designers right now (along scott stephen and Florian!!)

i saw the collections last time in paris and thought they were great

 

[vanilla fairy]

never heard of her, but wow.. the designs are AMAZING!
every piece..
thanks for the thread

 

[Scott]

you are welcome! so glad you found it leyla

yeah,valery demure,is her primary showroom....and really the first,i've seen,that exclusively represents jewellery talent. and the quality of their roster is very impressive......almost all are quite dynamically innovative,imo. they used to have yoshiko(alongside her japanese/paris based diptrics)and tom binns. but i also love malcolm guerre and florian too! and the new talent,alexis mabille is quite lovely as well.

I didn't know her and I'm quite amazed by her work, I really like it.

Those leather pearls

 

[Yanka]

it's all the things that have been done before by high street stores. I feel that designer jewlry should set the trends instead of following the already existing & overdone ones. I guess it's nice she tried to re-invent the scull motif with the unexpected materials.

 

[masquerade]

wow, this stuff is amazing. i like everything except for the leather pearls. i especially love the leather bone stuff

 

[Scott]

i so adore this bag!! from her autumn collection 07

The pearls and bows caught my eye here and there over the past few weeks. So pretty! I'm glad to see more of her work - thanks everyone for posting the great images!!

Brilli - Brilliant.

Her bags are genius. Love everything, especially the nature-inspired pieces.

 

[Leoieee]

OH my god! I think im in love! Is there a website that allows you to purchase her stuff or give you whereabouts on where to buy them?

 

[Scott]

^well,as i said earlier in the thread,seven new york is getting some of her new pieces up soon,which you can order from through the internet. but they're preparing a new section of their site,focusing on smaller collections and natalia is one of them.

S/S 08

soooo beautiful!!

synopsis-

Remaining loyal to the precision of gaining objects with leather, Natalia Brilli continues to push her distinctive aesthetic with her new SS08 accessory collection. She presents us with her world: a cartography of geometric shapes enveloped by soft pelages of metallics and mats; where the landscape is of raw crystal topped jewellery boxes and sculptural wearables.

The range introduces a limited edition line of semi-precious stones -black onyx, raw crystal and pink quartz- incorporated into her trademark leather jewellery. Brilli' s atmospheric anthology manipulates angular shapes, a seemingly mathematical process in which the smallest detail becomes a strong dynamic in a single piece, whether a necklace, bracelet, brooch or bag.

Her mastered python handbags, minimal bangles and skull wrapped purses evolve into attaches of personal style and sophistication.
Shifting from the figurative and organic to the abstract and mathematical, Brilli has composed a collection where the versatility of material and design is juggled with play and refinement.
