“Signum is a visual language made of symbols and signs, which combined in sequences convey our meaningful messages”- Giulia Barela
Signum is the name of the new collection designed by Giulia Barela: a creative project that transforms her jewels into artworks, a wearable alphabet made of symbols. The shapes are a union of signs made by simple lines, primordial figures that make up chains, a metaphor for a universal link; a connection between people, between our inner world and the outside. In creating these iconic elements, Giulia Barela approaches the imaginary of the contemporary artist Giuseppe Capogrossi, a tribute to the power of art in communicating universal values.

Welcome to my universe
Giulia Barela
"The initial idea for a piece often comes from a personal emotion. The design develops as I meditate on this feeling, finding a way to express it through shapes. The creative process is fluid, one idea can metamorphose into another".
Every detail is memory
IDEAS BECOME FORMS
Every jewel is born from an emotion, an idea. What inspired it must be perceived, felt; its form holds a soul that reveals itself to the wearer
Sculpting the material
GESTURES AND SURFACES
It is important that every gesture is perfectly executed, as every tiny mark, or impression on the wax will be seen on the jewel's body.
The thought becomes tangible
WEARABLE SCULPTURES
"When I am satisfied with the result, the original idea, or archetypal form becomes a tangible, physical object of beauty".
