I am a jewels designer,mainly, but also a fashion and accessories designer. I am a costume and set designer for theatre, a painter and portrait designer.
My cultural education in the Arts is extensive, and includes: Artistic Lyceum Diploma (A.Modigliani, Novara), Degree of Academy of Fine Arts (Accademia Albertina, Torino), specialization: Set design, where I also attended at the Courses of: Set tecnique, History of Costume, Theory of visive perception and Psicology of the shape, Art Critique, and I graduated with theThesi of Art History: "Leonardo da Vinci artist and scientist". I also attended at a Course of specialization for shoes and leather accessories, at the International Institute "Ars Sutoria" of Milano.
My artistic culture so various, had a positive influence on my activity of jewels designer, and is my peculiarity, appreciated from Companies which I work with, because, they say, I start from different points of wiew, not only related to the jewels sector, and this make me able to obtain more originality in my creations. In my jewels, so as in all my artistic creations, I research the armony of the shapes and a pleasant aesthetical effect, that cathc the eyes, with a touch of originality,but always with an elegant effect. Besides to the "shape",is also very important for me the study and combinations of the colours, and the use of colour gradations, my characteristic from ever, that often made a" trend"and has been imitated.
I started to designs jewels as a free-lance, for Companies of Valenza, a little town, but popular in the world for jewellery, close to Alessandria(Italy), which is my town. I gained experience working for many years for Companies different for kind of production. Some of them worked for big international brands, for which I worked for by them. Someones I can not cite; Among the Companies which I worked and I can cite, there are: HENRY DUNAY, New York, DAMIANI, CHIMENTO, HELLMUTH SIMPLY GOOD, Germany, REMINISCENCE, France (and many others not so known by people, but well known into the jewellery world).
Even though I continue with my activity of free-lance jewels designer, from 2009 I decided to create some my personal jewels lines, under my name, further to the interest and the requestes that I received after I exposed some samples of models from my designs, in the exhibition MACEF GOLD in Milano, on my own, and in the Vicenza exhibition "GLAMROOM" with the Association of goldsmith designers which I was a member, sponsorized by the "Italian Fashion Chamber", and in the show "DESIGN TIME" also in Vicenza.
I created and patented my brand "MY STAR" for which I will design jewels lines with the stars as the theme, and the brand "GRAZIELLA PALETTA" designer, for other kinds of jewellery lines. All my jewellery lines are patented. A peculiarity of my jewels is that they can be "transformables" adaptables to decorate bags and shoes, or change shape depending on the type of fastening or assembly. For this reason everyone can use them in a personal way, to obtain a jewel really "unique".
I want my jewels to be something more than just an object, I want they communicate the personality of those who create them, the history and culture that lie behind, and the passion that inspired them. These jewels want to be "precious" as well as in materials, -gold, diamonds and precious stones-, also with the thoroughness of the execution, entrusted to the best italian goldsmits.
The next project is to create a line of clothing and accessories "MY STAR".
