About

 

About the artist:

Through her Italian heritage, Caranina Bertone grew up surrounded by food and passion. She has been honing her creative eye from a young age, inspired by her parents' passions for photography and material arts. Attending arts university exposed her to the realm of goldsmithing and her technical training is passed along through her custom work, repairs, and workshops.

 

She cherishes her home and studio filled with natural light, secondhand furnishings, and fresh flowers. Caranina loves thrifting on weekends, a cozy night in reading with candlelight, and hitting the road (whether on a road trip to a new destination, locally on her bike, or attempting to learn to skateboard). She loves exploring new recipes, and the joy food brings when shared.
.

Questioning life with zest and curiosity, she is interested in challenging societal expectations through consumerism, anti-racism work, and our collective life purpose - all of which she aims to work through with her brand.

About the brand:
.
Crafting fine jewellery with intention, Caranina embraces slow fashion by creating sentimental pieces to be cherished forever. She is a classically trained goldsmith, focused on a small production scale, bringing forward quality and intentional design. Through custom jewellery and workshops, clients are given a glimpse into the world of goldsmithing and can give a personal touch to future heirlooms. We believe jewellery is gender fluid and the expression of fashion we each make should be based on comfort, personal taste, and style.
