We all have drawers full of the lace made by our mothers and grandmothers. Those doyleys were used as the decoration on coffee tables, tv-sets, or armchairs. Nowadays, they have emotional value, but no use. Diana Sokolic made cuff bracelets with lace between two plates of transparent Plexiglas. Beautiful pieces made with love and patience have regained their purpose connecting our past with our present.

There are many different kinds of bracelets and bangles: designers, golden, plastic, cheap and expensive… but beautiful as they are, they all are always simply and only bracelets. Fred is something more. These cuffs in their simplicity revive the noblesse of old times, yet they are modern. They can be worn on bare hands as well on a silk blouse or a black sweater, and they will always add a touch of class to the person wearing them . These bracelets are unique because they come as a pair. They are very light which makes wearing them omfortable. By wearing them, one will shurely be noticed!

The bag has always two functions: to put things inside ( as much as it could be stuffed in it ) and to look nice but not essentially in that order.This bag meets both requests. It is unique and different from the other bags because of the combination of materials used for making it: plexiglas with textile bag attached. The bag is very architectural, simple and clean in its form but nevertheless functional. In its construction, it is homage to Bauhaus, its world view and its masters but still it is very modern. Thanks to plexy, it is very light and its shiny surface attracts attention.
