My fleamarket finds. 🕰️🍂

Spending hours wandering through old stalls, looking for warm color palettes, forgotten textures, and unique objects rich in history.
Each piece has a past life, and some need a restoration (that’s the beauty of it).
Soon avaiable in my online shop.

For those who know me, I never buy new leather, only vintage and secondhand.
I consider it an excellent, durable material, but I’m strictly against animal exploitation.
Buying it used is my way of preserving quality without contributing to the production and sale of new skins.

Which one is your favorite find?

Chronicles of lived treasures.

I scouted out these @marsell.official shoes at the fleamarket, completely forgotten, and I just had to take them with me for an urgent restoration.
Seeing them come back to life is an inexplicable feeling.

Transforming what is forgotten🌀

Thrift diaries.

Scouted out this tiny secondhand piece and falling completely in love with its metal rings.
It feels more like a piece of jewelry than a bag.
I’m already thinking about customizing it with unique fabric applications to make it even more unconventional.

Should I keep it or sell it?

Stumbling upon an incredible piece of wearable art in a second-hand shop, made by a talented craftsman.
These are the purchases I love to make, when art and a love for the lived-in past converge into a unique object.

Studio diaries.
Replacing brushes with needles and paint with threads. I drawn and stitched this face onto an old denim piece, so I could transfer my art onto an upcycled secondhand garment.

Watching the needle move feels like a quiet dialogue between materials and thoughts, it’s like weaving a new line into the story.
Full reveal in the next posts❤️‍🔥

Fleamarket chronicles.
There is an ancient, comforting rhythm in her slow gestures, preparing a piece of the past for its next chapter.
It’s impossible not to get lost in these moments, and for those who love this world as much as I do, finding yourself in every single gesture.

Fleamarket chronicles. A vintage mid-century honey bee jar.
This is one of those objects that called me from afar, and asked to be brought home.

How would you use it?
