Story

Valbona is a long experience craftswoman who has practiced the art of jewelry making since the 80s. She is one of the first artisans who opened her shop in the old bazaar of Kruja. Valbona creates handicrafts in gold, filigree and silver in products such as rings, bracelets, or various jewelry according to her creative designs.

Filigree is one of the oldest and most beautiful forms of art developed by man. This form of art has a rather difficult work process. The work is done with an alloy of 90% or more pure silver. First, the piece of silver is set to melt in the forxhe, and then it continues with the casting, with the transition to the kalander and the processing of the wire. After this process, the giving of the required form begins. The processing of a product can be completed in 2-3 working days.
