Atelier
in Milano
Natsuko Toyofuku's atelier on Corso Como in Milan was inherited from her father, a sculptor, who once used it as his own studio. It is here that she designs her jewelry.
Beyond jewelry design, the atelier is a place where many sensibilities intersect — a creative hub for collaborations with designers across various fields.
Jewelry
Lost wax casting
Natsuko Toyofuku's jewelry is created using the lost-wax casting method — an ancient technique traditionally used in sculptural foundry.
This casting method utilizes wax to faithfully reproduce complex shapes and fine details.
The "wax designs" that serve as the originals for each piece of jewelry are all handmade entirely by her own hands.
