Anna searches the world for antique, museum quality, cameos in materials that include shell, ivory, amber, agate and lava. She has become an expert in this type of art which, carved in extremely low relief by master artists, dates back to ancient Roman times and often included mythologicalmor pastoral narratives.
By re-crafting the cameos’ original settings and using additional sterling silver, gold and hard stones with expert artisans in Tuscany, Anna transforms each cameo by placing it in a contemporary leather setting and creates completely unique pieces imbued with history.

“I AM AN ARTIST, WITH A HISTORIAN’S HEART; I DEAL WITH SCULPTURES, BUT WEARABLE ONES; I TRAVEL THE WORLD, BUT I MAINTAIN MY TUSCAN IDENTITY, MY INCURABLY ITALIAN SOUL, ATTACHED TO FAMILY AND OLD VALUES. AS A DAUGHTER OF ANTIQUARIANS, I GREW UP SURROUNDED BY CURIOUS OBJECTS AND ANTIQUES. I FIRST ENCOUNTERED ART AND ALL HER MAGNIFICENT FORMS WHEN I WAS A CHILD: DANCE, PHOTOGRAPHY, DRAWING, CRAFTSMANSHIP”. - ANNA PORCU

“MY WORK IS MY MISSION. I BRING TO PRESENT ARTISTIC TRADITIONS WITH ANCIENT ORIGINS DATING BACK TO ROMAN TIMES: BAS-RELIEF IS A PRECIOUS PRACTICE TO BE PRESERVED, A HISTORY TO BE HANDED DOWN. I MAKE IT WEARABLE TO AFFIRM ITS UNDISPUTED TIMELESSNESS, THROUGH THE UNPARALLELED EXCELLENCE OF MADE IN ITALY. I HAVE TRAVELED THE WORLD FINDING BEAUTIFUL CAMEOS TO BROADCAST MY MESSAGE: ART IS A TIMELESS TREASURE AND A PRIMITIVE HUMAN NEED, IN EVERY AGE.” - ANNA PORCU
