Lara Saget merges fine art, fashion, alchemy, and design. Each sculpture is hand crafted by Brooklyn-based artist Lara Saget. Lara has been producing sculptures for over a decade in bronze, glass, and stone. Her desire to bring her work into every day life led to the creation of a unique line of bespoke, novel wearable artwork.
Lara has implemented new ways of stone setting, forming glass bezels for her gemstones. She additionally creates pendants by encasing gemstones and pearl in glass, utilizing heat to transform the materials. Experimentation is at the heart of Lara’s practice. She imagines new material possibilities in order to create something that has never existed before. All stones are materials are ethically-sourced by Lara, hand-selected for their beauty and histories.
