THE PIECE
FIRETA:(n) pieces made for playing in small format, reproducing traditional forms of kitchenware in miniature (dishes, pots, cups, jars, mortars, etc.). Made of clay or tin.
The “Fireta” is closely related to pottery. It appears approximately during the Neolithic and has been developed by the Iberians, Romans…etc until today.
Produced out of clay, porcelain tin and plastic in a chronological order. Today I try to make the “Fireta” in my own like, as a result of the respect I have for Catalan pottery as a part of my roots and tradition. Silver and gold, materials not associated to “Fireta”.
By making them jewellery they are close to the body, function as communication and thinking mechanisms to talk about tradition; history yet re‐ inventing a new one.
