About Natalia Criado<\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/strong>Natalia Criado\u2019s Coffee Ritual<\/h3>\n

Natalia Criado loves beginning her day with coffee brewed in a special cup and stirred with a beautiful spoon. This daily ritual inspired her <\/span>\u201cJoias En Casa\u201d<\/span><\/strong> collection, which translates to <\/span>\u201cJewels at Home.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This tableware series, launched in 2017, celebrates the art of hosting and elevates the dining experience. Plates, trays, and cups are made from natural stones, referencing Etruscan goldsmith traditions, and adorned with small sculptural elements. Each piece strikes a balance between aesthetics and functionality.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Craftsmanship and Eco-Friendly Materials<\/h3>\n

Across all her projects, Natalia emphasizes the value of <\/span>artisan craftsmanship<\/span><\/strong> and <\/span>sustainable materials<\/span><\/strong>, highlighting the time and care needed for each creation. She aims to revive traditional techniques and reintroduce less commonly used materials\u2014like metals\u2014to keep endangered crafts alive.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Natalia Criado\u2019s work, <\/span>brass<\/span><\/strong>, <\/span>lapis lazuli<\/span><\/strong>, <\/span>quartz<\/span><\/strong>, <\/span>onyx<\/span><\/strong>, and <\/span>serpentine<\/span><\/strong> sourced primarily from Colombia and Brazil are found alongside <\/span>Murano glass<\/span><\/strong> and expert Italian production methods. The result is a blend of cultures, materials, and applied arts that lends her objects a timeless elegance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Timeless Design: \u201cOggetti della Dualit\u00e0\u201d<\/h3>\n

For Natalia, creating long-lasting objects with an aesthetic transcending fleeting trends is essential. This mindset led to the <\/span>\u201cOggetti della Dualit\u00e0\u201d<\/span><\/strong> collection, centered on the concepts of sharing and ritual.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pre-Columbian shamanic traditions are reinvented and transformed into utensils for the tea ceremony. They encourage users to pause and savor the moment. The forms also draw inspiration from the <\/span>Bauhaus<\/span><\/strong> movement\u2014especially <\/span>Marianne Brandt<\/span><\/a>, the first and only woman in the famed design school\u2019s metal workshop\u2014resulting in a minimalist yet contemporary style.<\/span><\/p>\n

Collaborations with Artisans and Cultural Fusion<\/h3>\n

Natalia takes an active role in the production process, learning and honoring the craft. By doing this she wants to honor her partnership with the artisans who bring her ideas to life<\/span><\/p>\n

A notable example occurred in <\/span>Raquira<\/span><\/strong>, a small town in the Andes known for its clay. While Natalia was working on her vase, architect <\/span>Pietro Minelli<\/span><\/strong> invited a group of designers, artists, and architects to bring sketches of an \u201cimaginary vase\u201d to life. The outcome was <\/span>Alone Together<\/span><\/strong>, a no-profit project resulting in 80 terracotta vases presented in a Milan exhibition.

Alone Together \u2013 Riviera<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Natalia Criado<\/span><\/strong> exemplifies how artisan heritage, eco-friendly materials, and a mindful approach to daily rituals can serve as an endless source of inspiration for contemporary design. Her collections\u2014like <\/span>\u201cJoias En Casa\u201d<\/span><\/strong> and <\/span>\u201cOggetti della Dualit\u00e0\u201d<\/span><\/strong>\u2014celebrate the beauty of everyday objects, transforming them into experiences to be savored.<\/span><\/p>\n
