Dalia Katavic

"A world of creativity from a young age. With my children – those were games without limits. Christmas cards, for 10 years of creativity we made our own Christmas game.

Christmas cards are a concrete project, Valentine's Day, Halloween, masquerades. For good or bad reasons – our house has always been a creative workshop. I find the creative power that leads to new ideas literally in everything that surrounds me, primarily nature, and it has always been like that. I graduated in Agronomy, so I am also professionally connected to nature, but the path, here, led me to jewelry."

ā€œWhen the heart is inspired, the brain works, the hands work even better. The coordination of these three forces gives rise to the fourth element – ​​skill. Skill makes us all the same.ā€
