Tg-Jewellery by Tamara Gervasio

Tamara Gervasio was born in Italy, and studied five years as a sculptor at the Institute of Art and two years of specialisation in jewellery as a wax carver and goldsmith designer in Rome. She started to create jewellery from home as a hobby after her two years of the goldsmith's course in 1993, then she moved to England, London in 1998, creating her first collection of jewellery with the name "Tg-Jewellery". Right here the desire to emerge and make herself known lead her to remain in a place where she didn't know anyone and what she considered only a hobby turned into passion and then blossomed into a career of creation , imagination and research. Her specialisation is lost wax and all her pieces are hand-carved from a block of wax, using artisan tools that allow precise details for carving. Her passion is aimed at creating unique handmade jewels with the aim of making a difference: with her approach to "everything is possible", supported by her wealth of tenacity and work experience. Tg-Jewellery offers you unique pieces that embody the beauty and finesse of traditional craftsmanship with modern and unconventional elements and the unique opportunity to design your jewellery for that special occasion and to see them made with a model in lost wax. This process is taking you on a wonderful experience of literally seeing your design come to life, wearing it and modifying it according to your wishes. She has collaborated with many other goldsmiths and fashion designer like Paul Smith and Vivienne Westwood, by supplying them the lost wax prototype. Her work is based on the principles of repeated regular and irregular patterns, which include different contrasting shapes such as organic forms of the nature that surrounds us, with geometric shapes combined with soft lines. Her jewels are made of 925 silver, 18 Karat yellow and white gold combined with diamonds and precious and semi-precious stones. Tamara's work is constantly evolving, adding new design elements to its collection, which give it a wider charm, detaching itself from the classic Italian jewel to get closer to a more innovative and contemporary jewels. Her work has appeared in Italian television, in specialized fairs in Italy, England, Florida and sector magazines in Italy, England and Japan.
