Dimitra Chouliaras, Galleria Armadoro Founder
The creation of Galleria Armadoro's studs and piercing studs is a journey from concept to completion, a ballet of precision and artistry.
Here's a glimpse into the intricate process that brings each piece to life:
1// Conceptualisation
It begins with a spark, an idea that takes shape in the form of hand sketches by our CCO Dimitra Chouliaras.
These initial drawings are the soul of the collection, where creativity flows freely, capturing the essence of Galleria Armadoro's aesthetic.
2// Refinement
From the sketched visions, the designs transition into the digital realm as CAD (Computer-Aided Design) drawings.
This is where the sketches are refined into precise blueprints, defining dimensions, and ensuring the functional feasibility of each piece.
3// Prototyping
With CAD drawings in hand, the journey continues as we move into prototyping. This stage is crucial—it's the first time the designs are translated into tangible objects.
It's a process that allows for adjustments and refinements, ensuring that the aesthetic and practicality of the designs are in perfect harmony.
4// Sample Creation
The prototypes pave the way for the sample creation.
Here, the meticulous craftsmanship of our artisans comes into play, turning gold and gemstones into the delicate studs and piercing studs that will adorn our collection.
5// Quality Control
Each sample is subjected to rigorous quality control, scrutinising every angle, every finish, ensuring that each piece meets the high standards that Galleria Armadoro is known for.
6// Wearability Test
Before a design is given the green light, it must pass the wearability test.
This is where we ensure that not only do the earrings look exceptional, but they also sit perfectly on the ear, comfortable for all-day wear.
7// Final Touches
The final step is where magic happens.
The pieces are polished, stones are set, and the final touches are applied.
It's the culmination of the process, where the pieces are now ready to tell their story.
Each step is carried out with the utmost care, ensuring that the earrings you choose to adorn yourself with are not just jewelry but a part of your narrative, crafted to be as unique and vocal as the contemporary women who inspire us.
The U Locks and Charm Drop Earrings represent a cornerstone of Galleria Armadoro's innovative design, with our signature U shape lock becoming an emblem of the brand's creative vision.
These pieces are a testament to elegance and versatility, designed to embrace the ear lobe in a gentle clasp, allowing the charm to dangle with a graceful poise.
