V DESIGN LAB

V DESIGN LAB by Valeria Vigliani is a small jewellery brand. Mainly a One-Woman-Show.

Valeria, the designer, personally conceives the ideas and designs each single jewellery piece/collection first by hand and then in 3D.

• A first prototype is then created out of wax or resin and then, when approved, the actual wax model is melted into a metal jewellery piece.
• The piece is then hand-finished and polished if needed.
• Afterwards a coat of 18Kt Gold plates the piece with a more than average level of plating when it is requested.
• She combines tradition (hand-design, hand-finishing by herself or through a local goldsmith atelier in Italy) with new technology (3D design, 3D printing for prototyping and for producing other unique pieces or small collections in other materials g. alumide, etc…).
• Ultimately creating unique and sustainable pieces of jewellery using mostly up-cycled brass, Recycled Sterling Silver 925 which is then often 18Kt Gold plated or recycled gold upon request.
• Ad-hoc designs can be created with the client for a personalised piece of jewellery as well as different sizes of existing designs, different metals, also precious metals, or finishes can be requested

V DESIGN LAB is available at the following independent stores.
