Laura Lombardi is one of my best friends. She is amazingly creative and inspiring woman. She has launched her line of jewelry. Her work is timeless, classic yet modern craftsman ship. Laura draws inspiration from her personal history, the “grit and glamour of NYC” and her Italian roots from Florence which she spent many summers growing up. Laura also creates art; she has always been strongly influenced by fine arts but yet still keeps her personal style within her artwork. The transition from art to jewelry was natural for her.
Laura strives to “create work that transcends specific styles and holds
appeal for a wide range of people”. Her design is refreshingly clean and simple. The bulk of her jewelry comes from vintage, antiqued materials which is quite special. “I want to create things that are timeless, that are verging on romantic but maintain a soft edge. The pieces are sometimes sweet, sentimental, and a little dark. They can be dressy, whilst remaining raw and pared down, which makes them really wearable.”
