Raffaella Lamanna is an artist that has chosen to make real her own emotions, her own vision of nature and the reality that surrounds her by using gold and precious stones.
Her creations have technical origins from ancient gold smithing arts: Celtics, Byzantine “barbaric” broadly speaking but revised and fit for the culture of current times.
Raffaella love to use at the same time more precious materials, stones of  different kinds, sizes and colors, joined together by chiselled gold foils to exalt sometimes an extreme polychrome, sometimes an extreme graduation of tones, easily able to cut the breath from the observer.
