Over the past decade, Natalia Criado has nurtured the growth of her eponymous brand, embodying a creative multitask-driven approach that permeates her diverse creative endeavors. Drawing inspiration from the heritage of pre-Columbian forms, Criado's works express a fusion between the cultural legacies of Colombia, the place where she was born, and Italy, the one that adopted her. Collaborating closely with expert artisans from both countries, she skillfully combines contemporary design and craftsmanship, breathing life into objects characterized by minimal geometric shapes. It is through this collaborative process that Natalia not only showcases her artistic vision, but also supports the traditions that reside within these crafts. One of Natalia Criado's most notable projects is 'Joyas en Casa' or ‘Gems at Home’—a collection that transcends the boundaries of traditional tableware. This extraordinary ensemble of artifacts redefines the very concept of everyday objects, engraving them with a resplendent fusion of sculptural mastery and sensory allure. From salt and pepper containers to cutlery, and captivating floral and fruit vases, each piece within the 'Joyas en Casa' collection seamlessly transitions between functional and decorative roles.
