She uses Japanese motifs, free of rights, from all the Japanese cultural spectrum, katagami stencils, urushi lacquer, Japanese chiyogami papers, manga, her travel photos. She also uses chirimen cords, a specialty of Kansai fabric work, which she brings back from her travels in Japan.
During manufacture, she develops different resin molding techniques that allow her to achieve very successful results: the jewelry is beautiful, without solid opacity, the pattern is visible. The resin remains fine and shiny and of incomparable lightness. Goodbye to long and heavy earrings that hurt… Long live second-skin jewelry that you forget.Each piece of jewelry is accompanied by a hand-made gift bag, included in the price, an original creation from Amandine, which also includes little Japanese surprises.

Aurélie has lived in Japan for 6 years, she ran a store for one and a half on Shijo Dori in Kyoto. She also trained in a very well known kimono school in Japan, the Hakubi school.
