STORY: The designer Lea Stein studied art and began designing jewelry in the 1950s. Together with her husband Fernand, a chemist, she developed her own lamination process buy for the production of particularly thin plastic sheets, which she then processed into fashion jewelry. The artist works various materials into her plastics, such as delicate fabric, brocade, lace, mother-of-pearl, or metal, thus creating structured plastic surfaces. The elaborate process takes up to half a year. Due to their uniqueness, Lea Stein's handmade creations still inspire collectors all over the world and no two pieces are exactly alike.
