Tzuri Gueta

The first time I saw Tzuri Gueta’s creations in Milan some year ago I fell in love with his organic jewels. Soon he became one of the most interesting upcoming designers, attracting the attention of several haute-couture design houses for collaboration.His most recent activity is a luminaires installation for the “Il était une fois Playmobil” at the toy gallery of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris…

“The famous “happy accident” whilst experimenting has lead to Tzuri Gueta – Paris-based textile and jewelry designer – becoming the recognised master of silicone jewelry. Through experimentation, Gueta developed a way to extrude hot silicone through silk tubes and lace fabrics to create these luscious forms.
Silicone penetrates the tiniest fissures and cavities of fabric, blending perfectly with all textures. It can imitate wood, ivory, coral or leather, taking on their physical qualities, infusing them with a subtle luminosity, while adding new forms and agreeable textures.
Necklaces, bracelets, rings and accessories, their surfaces are surprisingly tactile, their effect is ironic and yet very sophisticated.”
