BOLOGNA, ITALY
Seashells, chairs, tables, caps, coffee bags… Emilia and Rosaria journey began with a shared passion for restoring small objects and furniture. They replenished their creativity, giving new life and new purpose to materials and objects otherwise destined to a landfill. Over the years, the two artisans have improved and refined their techniques. Today Emilia and Rosaria are the creative minds of Meraky, a brand aimed at an environment-conscious audience who appreciate style and craftsmanship as values of Italian culture. Meraky gives a new interpretation of the accessory, that combines ethics with aesthetics. Unusual materials used with creativity, passion and artisanal skills become functional new products with a high degree of originality. The Meraky spirit draws inspiration from the concept of “pantha rei” by the Greek philosopher Heraclitus: everything changes and nothing remains still. Consider things not for what they are but for what they might be. Meraky intends to enhance the excellence and creativity of artisanal know-how. Working with bare hands and using artisanal techniques means connecting mind and heart to reach the deepest soul of things.
