Kohinoor Project
Faire: Rome
Maker: Jerelyn Creado
The inspiration for the new collection comes from the influence
of the Mughals on culture, fashion and architecture in India.
Mughals and Indian Maharajas adorned themselves with extravagant, precious and elaborate and designed jewels.
This tradition continued in India even after that the Mughals were gone.
To make these magnificent creations, we work with small and medium sized artisans as they have generations of know-how behind their art.
This ensures that our shoes are handmade and that equal attention is paid to each of them.
We believe in keeping the art of footwear making alive in Italy for generations to come.

Invaerso: design & innovazione, artigianalità e upcycling.
Faire: Rome
Maker: Invaerso di Maria Clelia Scuteri
Invaerso was born from a project by the Roman designer Maria Clelia Scuteri, who with this brand wants to tell her own design vision in the approach to design. The creative process, when free to express itself outside any conventional scheme, becomes an infinite flow of ideas, capable of making anything possible. The jewel is a pretext: the aspiration is to create Designs to wear; something that has the ability to leave its mark, that is beautiful to look at and unique to "experience", but at the same time that knows how to tell a story, and has its own compositional, formal, material and conceptual identity. It doesn't matter if fluid or straight lines, soft or rigid; it is the design approach that aims at a continuous and incessant research towards an evolutionary goal made up of experiments without "rules" understood as preconceptions.
"The only goal to strive for is the creation of something unexpected and unique, outside of what we consider ordinary".
How? Through the creation of a unique and complex supply chain , the result of a strong creative sensitivity capable of subverting traditional rules combined with the use of different production techniques set up in a system that is always different (including: traditional metal casting, 3d printing technology , upcycling of industrial materials, lost wax, the craftsmanship of filigree).
