After a formation in classical studies she graduated in fashion design at Iuav University of Venice. After several years consulting as a multi-disciplinary designer and trend forecaster she felt the need to give life to something of her own, something with an expression that had neither boundaries nor compromises.
This is how Amàlgama Jewels was born.
Amàlgama is a blend, a fusion, a mixture and in alchemy it’s a term that specifically refers to metal. Amàlgama Jewels is about creating rigor and disrupting it with gut feeling, about translating a stream of consciousness, a sensation into matter. This philosophy is embodied in all Giorgia’s jewels that are hand carved and created with lost wax casting, therefore unique and non-repeatable. Each Amàlgama jewel is characterized by an aesthetic register that is organic, tactile and bold.
For centuries, knowledge of the natural world has been both a gift and a threat and women have learned to master it both by choice and necessity. Plants like belladonna, with their delicate beauty and hidden potency, became tools of survival, protection, and transformation. Used in medicine, cosmetics, and more elusive purposes, they offered women agency in a world that often sought to deny it.
In the courts and apothecaries of Renaissance Europe, healers and poisoners often walked the same fine line. The hands that prepared remedies for pain and illness could, when necessary, mix something far darker. In a time when women had little control over their fate, understanding these secrets was its own hidden form of power.
Belladonna is a symbol of this duality between beauty and danger, control and consequence. It speaks to the resourcefulness of those who learned to navigate a world that was not made for them, to turn knowledge into protection when no other options remained.
The Belladonna Collection by Amàlgama Jewels carries this legacy forward in a new unedited chapter. Each creation presented for the first time for Autor is a reflection of resilience, a reminder that strength often lies in the things unexpected, through remedies and hidden defenses passed from one hand to another.
