WHAT WE ARE
DISCOVER THE HIDDEN TREASURES, THE PASSIONS AND THE TRADITIONS OF ITALIAN EXCELLENCE
Hope Lace Design is a new toy and jewellery design brand, born from a passion for hand crafting.
The modern fairy tale started when two sisters – Izabel, language and literature graduate and Karmelina, industrial design graduate – found that they really had a lot in common. Not only did they share the same roots, but also a great passion for the “handmade” and a strong taste for beauty. That is how they created the Hope Lace Design Italian fashion brand, establishing their first product, the rattling monkey, as an iconic and unique toy, luxury in toys defined by quality, exclusivity and craftsmanship. Later, they went on to add other toys, always in new variations, demonstrating unexplored potentialities.
Subsequently, the creation of jewellery inspired by the magic of Swarovski crystals was added to their toy production. Sophisticated jewellery embellished with Swarovski Elements, in a play of shimmering reflections and couture splendour, decidedly elegant, but at the same time urban and undoubtedly versatile.
The common thread of our production is yarn, worked as crochet, lace, embroidery and tatting, whose fine weave narrates an ancient story.
We are proud to protect the heritage of know-how found in traditional Italian craftsmanship and we most audaciously add the know-how typical of Italian design.

RESEARCH
A fresh and open vision that has its roots in our historical heritage.
The greatness that comes with knowing how to make things, knowing how to create beauty after first imagining it.
The union between ancient technique and avant-garde materials, creating a strong element of uniqueness.
SWAROVSKI
Swarovski is a brand that brings extra value to our jewellery.
In 1891 Daniel Swarovski created a diamond “accessible to everyone”. In the 1920s, the gowns seen in American jazz clubs or in Paris fashion houses were decorated with Swarovski beads and crystals. In the 1950s the Aurora Borealis finish was created, in collaboration with Christian Dior. These crystals adorned the century’s most beautiful films, from “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” to “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”.
FAMILY
The words family, affection and affinity are everything for us. Our biggest inspiration is our two sons/nephews, Mattia and Leonardo.
