Filou Designs features handcrafted solid sterling silver and mixed media jewelry created by Fiona Louie, who uses her travels and imagination as her muse. Fiona has been highly influenced by her time living in Japan, where she studied traditional Japanese arts such as tea ceremony and kimono. Fiona is also inspired by her travels through Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Oceania, French Polynesia, South & Central America, Caribbean, and the Galapagos Islands.
Signature styles include cut-out silhouettes which are often composed in shapes, organic medallions that are created from original carvings, and the new 3D collections which are created from various techniques including organic casting, wax carving and sculpting. These styles explore negative and positive relationships in composition, mass and process to reach the final material form.
The beauty of working in metal is the ability to create anything the mind can dream of. Imagery includes exotic, natural and whimsical motifs sketched by the artist. Many of the pieces are finished with a "fiddlehead bail" unique to Filou Designs.
Each metal charm is of original design and is handcrafted with love on the beautiful westcoast of Vancouver, Canada.
Filou Designs is about a life & mind without boundaries. Enjoy!
