PROCESS
Inquisitive and with a curious passion, new ways are explored to create flameworked glass elements which are used as building blocks for the designs. By combining with quality leather, silver and stainless steel the glass elements form a synergy between construction and design. Each Loretti Design creation is handcrafted and unique.
DESIGNER
Deborah was educated in Visual Communication and Interior Textile Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Maastricht, The Netherlands.
After graduating Deborah pursued a professional career designing product and colour collections for textile and furniture manufacturers in Europe. During this time the Loretti Design Studio was founded.
The move to Aruba in 2005 introduced her to the art of flame-working glass which sparked a new passion for jewelry design. Deborah’s keen eye for detail and sensitive sense of colour form integral parts of every Loretti Design creation.
