Daniela's designs exploit the properties of shapes and materials, such as the tension and elasticity of a spiral, to create unique and elegant jewellery whose beauty stems from the form itself, rather than relying on decoration or embellishment. The jewellery is made mainly in silver and 18ct gold and many pieces incorporate innovative clasps and fittings as integral features. The work can be purchased directly from Daniela or at selected exhibitions and outlets, as listed. "Elegant and modern, whilst technically extremely accomplished." (British Jewellers' Association 2006)
