Gdynia designers Jola S\u0142oma and Mirek Trymbulak have tackled the theme of Venice Carnival for the third time in their careers \u2013 for the first time 20 years ago, when their acquaintance with Venetian mask makers Sergio and Massimo Boldrini inspired them to create the \u201eVenetian Etude\u201d collection. The next instalment of this theme, under the slogan \u201eLa Via Dell\u2019 Ambra\u201d (The Amber Route), was presented last year at both ends of the Amber Road \u2013 in March in Gda\u0144sk and in May in Venice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201eThis year, we decided to close this chapter \u2013 dotting the \u201di's. The Boldrin brothers created masks, which we then adorned with nuggets of natural, lightly polished amber \u2013 I have to admit, the effect exceeded our expectations,\" explained Mirek Trymbulak.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
The masks were a unique addition to the outfits inspired by the Italian commedia dell'arte and the work of the photographic artist Krystyna Andryszkiewicz. The ensemble was completed by jewellery \u2013 with amber and other natural stones \u2013 by the renowned Gda\u0144sk goldsmith Dorota Cenecka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the artists are bidding farewell to masks and carnival, they are not bidding farewell to Italy, with its diverse inspirations, nor to amber, with which they have been strongly associated since the beginning of their careers as fashion designers. The inspiration for their next collection \u2013 for which jewellery will be created by Dorota Cenecka \u2013 will be the glass from the island of Murano, captivating with its multitude of colours and diverse shapes. Its premiere has been provisionally scheduled for August this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PS. Good news for fans of the \u201eLa Via Dell\u2019 Ambra\u201d collection: part of it \u2013 both masks and costumes \u2013 will be on display at the new premises of Gda\u0144sk\u2019s Amber Museum in the Old Mill, the opening of which is planned for June 2021. All that\u2019s needed is a little patience\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
