97 bracelet, La Mollla
La mollla
Molla means spring in Italian. Using this name, Tiziana has registered the mark la mollla© with three l’s that evoke graphically the spring movement. Each bracelet is composed of 97 stainless steel springs, a reference to the year of their launch on the market. The delicacy of their texture evokes silk and their lightness contrasts amazingly with their quantity.

Tzuri Gueta
Tzuri gueta is a designer and textile engineer. A graduate of Shenkar College in Tel Aviv, he has been based in Paris since 1996. Growing up on the shores of the Mediterranean, he was in direct contact with the elements of nature, and his work reflects his roots.
After settling in Paris, Tzuri worked at Trend Union, an agency run by Li Edelkoort, and went on to concentrate on textile design. He challenged the conventions of the trade by combining traditional handicraft with unprecedented techniques. His innovative approach gave rise to surprising materials that border on sculpture – materials that deceive the senses of sight and touch.
In the course of his quest for textile materials Gueta came upon silicone, and it soon became his signature material. This polymer, composed mostly of silica, possesses extraordinary properties of solidity and flexibility.
By combining silicone with openwork textile materials, Gueta invented a technique of blowing silicone into lace. The patent was registered in 2005. The countless facets of this combination of materials afforded him an unexpected field for exploration that began with textile design and led him to jewelry, design objects and art.
It did not take long for Gueta to intuit that lace injected with silicone could also be used to create jewelry. Since 2006, season after season, aided by jeweler Caroline Auraix, he has been designing collections that never cease to arouse curiosity.
