ABOUT ME
My name is Flavia, I was born in Turin, and I graduated in architecture. After having gained 10 years of experience in the world of museum and fair design and set-up, I decided to change and dedicate myself exclusively to my creations.
After years of trials, experiments, failures and achievements, I never stop studying and experimenting!
I get inspired by everything I’m passionate about: travel, books, art, food, music, dance and fashion.
“Crisis is the greatest blessing for people and nations, because crisis brings progress. Creativity is born from anguish as the day is born from the dark night. It is in the crisis that inventiveness, discoveries and great strategies arise”
…in 1931 so wrote Albert Einstein, and so ARKYFLY was born in 2010, precisely from a difficult working period.
All my creations are designed and conceived by me, laser-cut in my workshop near Turin, and then assembled by hand.
I care about the environment and try not to throw anything away. My “beautiful” scraps are reused to make fun clips that I include as a gift with every purchase. Since 2023, I’ve also introduced a new product: recycled acrylic! I recover all the scraps from laser cutting that would otherwise be discarded, and through a long process of heat fusion and pressing, I create a new sheet, which I use to craft unique and truly one-of-a-kind jewelry.
