Jewelry like portable poetry

The Palentina Eva González makes her life revolve around creation and culture in one way or another, often outside the Community, whether as a conservative and restoring patrimony, where the fabrics and tapices stand out, or the author's jewelry and high quality jewelry, her latest project to create pieces classified as "small portable poetry".

"it is a contemporary jewelry bet with unique and exclusive designs of the brand, with high-quality materials, such as sterling silver and gold, mainly, sometimes with stones or natural elements," says González, who adds that "they are very luminous and reflect a lot of light", between the shades offered by silver and matte white, with textures and shapes with organic lines.

Acknowledge to the Ical Agency that heritage conservation is a "somewhat unstable and intermittent" job, which is why it has learned over the years to see it on the bright side and to take advantage of those waiting times between projects and budget approval, or in the usual lonely times outside your home.

From all of this, and from the need to further develop its creative and plastic side, the brand of Eva Gonzóñez was born, with author Jewelry (@ gonzo _ joyeria), since the palentine is known in artistic projects such as Eva Gonzóñez. A brand with which it "connects through the pieces with a corner of nature".

As with any artistic discipline, the author's jewelry "must have that identity stamp and that signature that makes a work recognizable". It happens with the hedgehog earrings. "you quickly remember and sit closer to the sea. Or with the pin 'bucket ready to eat the sun', where you carry close to the heart a piece of a small invented forest. "

Natural materials

It makes it clear that they are jewelry with an exclusive design and made in a handmade and manual way with high-quality materials, designed to be durable and also acquire an intrinsic value, increasing. "my philosophy of work prioritises quality over quantity, and remoteness because of closeness."

In addition, the works are being worked in Castilla y León, so they are'km 0'. "Natural materials and environmentally friendly work processes are used without leaving waste. Everything is reusable through smelting, giving the remains second lives, "he adds.

"I create a lot of unique pieces, but in order to be able to work with shops and have some 'stock', I make small limited productions of some jewelry, both in silver and gold, in a way of working far away from what is known as serial work.

In fact, Gonzóñez carries out very few units, with an artistic and technical process, such as the microfusion process, which allows "the level of detail of the chosen pieces", hand in hand with a work with "much mime".

However, he adds that another important part focuses on the customization of jewelry, such as alliances, where work is done "from scratch on the history and aesthetics of each couple". The older ones, he points out that he usually has orders with re-use of gold from ancient jewels.

Palencia brand

She stresses that she works as a national restorer, trying to make it for as long as possible in Castile and León, but usually spends seasons in Madrid. "despite my great displacement, almost continuous, I have my house in Palencia, which is why you always return to your roots. I've bet on a bigger house, where I've conditioned the space to be able to work for seasons. "

In the case of jewelry, he clarifies that he takes advantage of the moments of waiting between projects, to design, work and finish pieces. The best way to make themselves known is to satisfy customers, with jewels that "speak for themselves, with quality and design in equal parts".

"word of mouth is how you can best talk about my work. Although, I love collaborating and doing exhibitions, parades, collaborations and that also helps to reach a greater number of people, but, to a greater extent, to meet very interesting people, open the mind, grow, evolve and weave networks, "he adds.

The artist emphasizes that she likes to attend personally, because with personalized designs "this contact is essential". Even so, there are times when it is not possible, so the jewels can be found in some Palentino shops where they will very kindly let you try and watch them live; like Filatelia Soledad and the Eutopia store, both in the capital, or Sara Macho's tattoo shop (@ saramv93) near Guardo.
