THE TOOLS

Each Forma Prima jewel is shaped with workshop tools patinated by time.

File, blowtorch, bocfil saw, burnisher... these instruments bear the marks of past pieces. They are an extension of the hand, and participate in the writing of each texture and each form. Here, the tools also tell their story.

THE WORKSHOP IN MOTION

The wax takes shape in the palm of the hand,
the metal remembers its transformations.

Here, matter breathes, reacts, sometimes resists.
And it is in this silent exchange that a jewel comes to life.

Each piece retains the trace of the moment it was created.
A memory frozen in matter — unique, like you.

PRINT Room

Here , time slows down.

In the Forma Prima workshop, every gesture has its weight, every tool retains the memory of a contact.
The wax can be slowly shaped under the fingers.
The metal melts, stretches, tightens to the rhythm of breathing and gaze.

The workbenches are marked by days gone by.
Each mark on the table tells a fragment of history: a jewel in the making, a sparkle frozen in time.

I work in silence - or accompanied by the discreet breath of the blowtorch, the rubbing of files, the crackling of molten metal.
My gaze lingers on an imperfect curve, a texture born of an accident.
I let the material answer me, surprise me.

To create here is to listen.
It is a dialogue with matter.
Give her room to speak, to exist, without constraining her.
Welcome its rough edges as one gathers a memory.

Each piece retains the marks of its birth:
an imprint, a vibration, a singularity.
It becomes a trace, a vestige, a sensitive fragment to carry on oneself.

The workshop is a refuge.
A place where the hand and the eye take their time.
Where jewels are born with the calm of misty mornings,
the roughness of a found stone,
or the furtive glare of a ray on a tool.

This is where your jewelry takes shape,
in this slow dialogue between hand and matter.

CLAY MOLDS

The objects are imprisoned in a clay mold.

Once the impression is obtained, the mold preserves the perfect trace of the material or object it has received. The wax is then poured into it, freezing this ephemeral memory to transform it into jewelry.

These clay molds are carefully preserved in the studio's archives, like a notebook of traces and memories. They tell the story of each creation and participate in this slow and patient dialogue between material and gesture.

WAXES

Wax, the raw material of Forma Prima jewelry, is sculpted, filed, and shaped by the fingers. Soft and sensitive, it allows each intention and organic texture to be translated. It is during this stage that the piece comes to life and reveals its raw character, before becoming metal. Waxes are the true three-dimensional sketches of the jewelry to come.
