La luce is a labour of love, founded by Joy Harvey and Marco Rossi – a chemist and a mechanical engineer. Each jewel is completely handmade from grains of exclusively Fairmined Gold and Silver by one goldsmith, Joy. To her, this is the only way to truly bring her vision to life. Each of the 5-10 pieces produced per year is one of a kind and made of materials that have a positive impact on the earth and its inhabitants.
La luce uniquely combines a love for traditional techniques, impeccable taste, and a profound need to truly responsibly source its materials, energy and dispose of its waste. For this reason, in 2024 la luce became a certified B-Corp.
“Bringing to life my creations, imperfect and stunning is the greatest form of privilege. Instead of searching for perfect, geometric, pristine beauty, these jewels are inspired by moulds, dying flowers, and mosses, uneven textures, and aged surfaces. I play with scratches, oxidations, and irregular facades, creating beauty through balancing the unbalanced.”
