Once upon a time decoration John Marchello they lived a completely different life: they stirred sugar in tea with massive rings, and ate second courses with graceful bracelets. It sounds, of course, very absurd, but it was so, because the jeweler makes his works from old table silver.
John Marcello makes tea spoon rings and fork bracelets. Naturally, this is exclusively manual work, and the author assures that he uses a special technology, thanks to which he manages to bend the devices without damaging them. Each of the jewelry exists only in one copy, so customers can be sure that their product is unique and inimitable.
It all started from the moment when one day in a restaurant, John Marcello's father found a bent fork under a napkin, and this gave him the idea of turning cutlery into various funny figures. A few years later, John came up with the idea of taking advantage of his father's idea, but directing it in a slightly different direction: this is how the first jewelry from forks and spoons appeared.
“I've always considered handicraft to be something magical,” says John Marcello. - And now this magical process leads me from a simple hobby to real creativity. I believe that bending the forks is the best way to transform my innermost ideas into reality."
Jewelry costs range from $ 12 to $ 150. Also, John Marcello can make a piece of jewelry from your own table silver - if you love it so much that you are even ready to wear it.
