Info

Ada Takı is produced by me, Ada Tuncer. I am curious about art and design in general so I like to learn and try new techniques and mediums like jewelry making, painting, sculpture, graphic design and product design. I value craftsmanship as a way to make art and the magical potential these art objects carry in the daily life. So these practices has spiritual importance for me.

 

 

I use several methods while making my jewelry, unique pieces which are hand sawed from metal sheets, editioned wax casted pieces and sometimes both techniques combined. Inspiration for my jewelry is a mixture of primitive, ancient and modernist forms, these sources meet with my own creative process.

 

I design and craft the handmade products in my studio at Galata, Istanbul with mostly traditional tools and techniques. I’m still in the process of learning from my master Serop Benli, a traditional Armenian jewellery master from Grand Bazaar, working for more than 50 years.

 

Materials of the pieces are brass, sterling silver, pearl, and natural stones. The materials are solid, so they’ll need special care. Please check my care instructions for further info.
