⁠[Bespoke] When this client reached out to commission a 40th birthday present for his striking wife, I immediately thought Francesca Villa was the right artist to create that jewel. We had an in-depth conversation about her personality, her taste in Art, their lifestyle and eventually on the kind of jewellery she likes to wear. Francesca started her research and sent a few proposals to start with. Months went by, both of them having this intimate dialogue where Francesca got to know more about this mysterious woman. ⁠Private commissions are both fascinating and exhilarating to develop.These Babilu earrings, as Francesca named them are the fruit of these conversations with the client and of her perception of this woman, she has never met. When the commission was completed, the client was so enchanted by these earrings. I imagine this woman wearing HER one-of-a-kind earrings with the quiet assurance of her husband’s profound love. ⁠.⁠.⁠#valerydemure #jewellery #fashionjewelry #finejewellery #contemporarydesign #jewelry #luxury #objetdemotion #handmade #designerjewellery #fashionjewellery #jewellerycollector #jewel #jewels #artisan #craftsmanship #bespoke #Valentinesday #Valentine⁠
