“The nucleus of my brand, Gia Belloni, is an evolving observation of natural curiosities. I work with precious metals, precious and semi precious stones, enamelling and different finishing techniques to create a coherent collection of wearable and flattering jewellery designs. By the time a collection has been developed I have been with it for a while, allowing me to see additions, advancements and exciting new ideas.” Gia uses computer aided technology alongside traditional goldsmithing to create wearable jewellery pieces. Gia considers jewellery to be a strong form of self expression, which is inspiration in itself, “it is always amazing to see how each individual wears and enhances my pieces. There is such strong creativity within people and I have always loved seeing how others style my work.” Gia works out of her London studio and Hatton Garden. Attention to detail and quality are of the utmost importance. Gia has learned from Stephen Webster, Hannah Martin, Theo Fennell & Tina Lilienthal among other leading British Jewellers.
COLONY COLLECTION: The Colony Collection is based around the importance and interest of bees. As the inspiration and development grew an enormous amount of intriguing information came to light about these industrious little creatures. Bees are 70% of the world’s pollinators, meaning if anything happened to them, we would be in trouble - our crops, livestock, plant life and so much more would suffer. Every 3rd mouthful of food, we owe to Bees. They are a strong and predominantly female society, with “Drone” males. Although they run their worlds in an ordered and disciplined way, there is also a nurturing element there. It was easy to anthropomorphize bees. But even without humanizing, bees offer a vast and rich array of inspiration for designs. Bees played a role in Goddess worship to the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians and the symbology and mythology surrounding them stretches far and wide. Often feminine strength and unity can be referenced in bee mythology as well as love and preservation (which is where the word ‘Honeymoon’ comes from).
