Mariapia's Jewels Store
They're unique in their type for the special reliefs that I create on the surface of the handmade paper. Durable, waterproofed, painted jewel, customized with various elements that make it a little "Work of Art to wear".
The handmade paper is created sheet by sheet.
The reliefs on the surface are designed and realized by Mariapia Zepponi.
The paper is manufactured with a process that makes it waterproof and resistant to mechanical stress.
