Furoshiki table at IKI

I love the Japanese concept of wrapping gifts, books, bottles, fruits etc.

Amuletta "nearby"


The first concept-jewel in the new "chosen by IKI" is: Amuletta "nearby"
The inspiration was the feeling I had when I was a little child, laying in bed,
under the soft woollen blanckets, it gave a comforting, happy, safe feeling.
This soft jewel is handmade in an edition of 3 x 3 different sizes,
from pieces of a woollen blancket and bordered with white silk,
guided with a poem of Jan Busschaert (poet of Bruges)


"Chosen by IKI" has restarted

November 10, 2017: Chosen by IKI has restarted
with a new concept:
besides my own work (conceptual jewels and objects)
there will be work from other artists/designers
and a nice selection of vintage Japanese items,
as kimono, haori, michiyuki, obi, chawan, ..
