Dusty attics, small markets and shops often hide the most beautiful treasures. One who goes looking in such places, can find extraordinary stuff.
Lies Wambacq, graduated as Jewelry designer and goldsmith is a master in the nobel art of collecting. She is attracted to old well-made things. It's not a miracle that the past has such a prominent place in her designs. “A jewel needs a story” is her point of view.
What's typical for Lies her designs? The prints and shapes of old jewels are the main ingredients. It's a mixture of classical and modern elements combined with special patterns of stones, pieces of jewelry and shelfs brought from trips made all over the world. You can describe her jewels as timeless. They are historically contemporary.
