Laura Balzelli is a goldsmith, stylist and painter. Born in Vicenza, she worked for leading fashion houses before deciding to focus on creating jewellery, while retaining her passion for art.
Her workshop in Vicenza first opened in 1993. Here she designs and makes single, unique pieces of jewellery to order. The collections feature precious metals matched with natural materials such as flowers, wood, ancient fragments collected on her travels, diamonds and precious stones. The gold is shaped and worked using various techniques, sometimes taking inspiration from craftspeople from other cultures.
Her daughter Lisa Piccoli is an expert in gemstones and has been supporting her technical and creative research for some years now.

The most unique and interesting thing about Laura Belzelli is her artistic vocation. Her jewels are like small, wearable sculptures, each being unique pieces, specifically designed for the customer. She has a deep, technical knowledge of materials, which she is able to tame and shape according to her personal, formal research. The gold embraces and binds the precious gemstones and the corals, thus creating beautiful blends and dynamic vortices. On the counter, visitors will find sketches and wax models: indeed, as an artist, Laura designs all of her works, then, as an artisan, she makes and refines them.
