Zammara

Zammara (Prickly pear in the dialect of the hinterland of Catania) is the name I wanted to give to my work. The prickly pear plant, symbol of Sicily, has been cultivated by my family for over a century. Its fruit is as sweet as the Sicilian soul, and as colorful as the sky of this land.  The branch on which it grows has many thorns, like the contradictions of this island. Jewel bracelet made with the fiber of the Prickly Pear plant, adjustable to the wrist. Chroming color bright gold and antique gold, carving and rounding made by hand. All my creations are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity that attests to the uniqueness and the craftsmanship completely handmade.
