My name is Maria Marmara and I am a metalsmith! Among other things I consider myself an animal lover and environmentally conscious so this is why all the gemstones and semiprecious stones I work with are ethically sourced and almost all metal used is recycled.i'm enchanted by personalities, movements, looks, journeys and this is where i seek inspiration.Sometimes I approach my work intuitively, I begin with a simple sketch or nothing at all and I see where the process takes me. I appreciate very much the element of chance.
