L’histoire de Mimi Cri

vaporetta berlin | Press information, December 2012

Porcelain Jewellery Collection
2013 | Fleur | Azulejo | Cubo | Alvorada

After creating initially a series of rings for the L’Histoire de Mimi Cri collection, Isabella Pikart, designer of vaporetta berlin, now enlarged the collection with further models. Like a golden thread runs through all new jewellery pieces as well need for experimentation with form, surface feel, glaze, chromatizity and contrasts (O Desejo da forma) to reach new combinations and interpretations of materials gold and porcelain. The squares, which already are the basic geometric form of the rings (in the first part of the collection), now find themselves in new arrangements such as floral forms „Fleur“, or the square or cube in a variable play of lines, surfaces or cubes alone or relative on to the other.

The outcome of this are earrings and a modular pendant system for the first time, which will be available from 2013 (as a limited edition, numbered by hand).

Available from March 2013 at Froschhammer & Rosenvogel Berlin

MYP Magazine: Eine Reise in den Süden – „L‘Histoire de Mimi Cri“
2013/07/14

São Paulo, 23.8.2012: Ein paar Steine auf der Straße, Sand der aus Meiner Tasche rieselt, das Blau der Kacheln eines Schwimmbads. Erinnerungen an einen Sommertag, ein flüchtiger Moment, der ein Gefühl lässt, das bleibt. Es klopft ein paar Jahre später an und ist wieder da. So wird aus einem Kieselstein, einer Welle, einem Sandkorn eine Zeichnung, ein Bild, eine Skulptur. Meine Skulpturen wurden kleiner und tragbarer. Sie wurden zu Schmuck, den wir an uns tragen können. Kleine Kreaturen, Lebewesen, ihre Namen sind „Ouro Branco“, „Pool Blue“ und „Bicho“.

Maketank Blog: Vaporetta – city and nature in a unique jewel
2013/05/31

The name of Isabella’s design label, Vaporetta Berlin, already hints at some of her inspirations. Vaporetta is the tug-like boat used as public transportation in Venice: “I went to Venice for Easter and stayed with a couple of friends. We went on boat to the Lido and there was a beautiful Italian lady conducting this boat. Anyway, we named her ‘Signorina Vaporetta,’ and this stuck with me; when I started my own label, I used this name as a synonym for ‘lifestyle’. (…)
