Carol Leal Joyas: Accesorios que conectan con la naturaleza - Carol Leal Jewelry: Accesories connecting with nature
Durante finales del año 2018, Carol lanzó su colección “En Extinción” enfocándose en las especies venezolanas que se encuentran en estado de vulnerabilidad con el fin de concientizar sobre sus estados de vida en el ecosistema venezolano e incentivar indirectamente una campaña de preservación de estas especies. Los protagonistas de estos diseños son el cardenalito, el cunaguaro (ocelote), el chigüire (capibara) y la flora venezolana.
A su vez, trabajando
junto con la etnia de indígenas Waraos del Delta del Amacuro, con el fin de preservar las tradiciones artesanales de la misma y apoyar a esta comunidad a través de la valoración y apreciación justa de su trabajo, la diseñadora
lanza una colección de carteras elaboradas de palma de moriche o "arbol de la vida".

People say that accessories are the ones that make the difference in our outfits, but if these accesories can do it without wearing them, then they are accessories that can be worn with a purpose beyond making us look good. Remembering the quote of Carmen Hjosa that says: "a design is not only about the product, but about its responsibility", reminds me of the accessories of the designer, Carol Leal, understanding that her designs are loaded with responsibility towards culture and nature.
Carol Leal is the mastermind behind an ethical and sustainable brand of accessories from Venezuela. As a goldsmith and human being, she is inspired by art, indigenous culture, the elegance of the Venezuelan woman and the biodiversity that represents the country. The contrast of the brand is influenced by the organic and the structured, the natural and the sophisticated.
During the end of 2018, Carol launched her collection "In Extinction" focusing on Venezuelan species that are in a state of vulnerability in order to raise awareness about their life status in the Venezuelan ecosystem and indirectly encouraging a campaign to preserve these species . The protagonists of these designs are the Red Siskin, the ocelot, the capybara and the Venezuelan flora.
At the same time, working together with the indigenous Waraos ethnic group of the Delta del Amacuro, in order to preserve the craft traditions of the same and support this community through the appreciation and a fair trade work, the designer launches a collection of bags made of moriche palm or "tree of life".
Carol Leal as a brand is characterized by linking Venezuelan elegance with ancestral traditions and the surrounding environment, which promotes a cyclical perspective that goes hand in hand with sustainability.

POWER
