Stanislav Drokin

Jewellery atelier of Stanislav Drokin – is a creative laboratory where constantly occurs an experiment with a search for new forms and color combinations of gemstones. The purpose of this process is the creation of jewelry with emotions, character. Every piece is created in a single copy, rarely in a limited edition and is intended for connoisseurs of contemporary jewelry art.

Each jewel goes a long way from idea to realization. The production of one piece can take up to 300 working hours. Moreover, a search for right color and sizes of stones sometimes takes months. In the process of creation, modern technologies and handwork are used. This combination gives a possibility to achieve the highest quality performance.

One of the most important components of the atelier is professional competence. When Stanislav Drokin was 15 years old he started to master refinements and secrets of the craft of metalworking – engraving, and jewelry. Founding in Kharkiv in 1994 jewelry atelier, Stanislav has already had many years of professional experience and creative potential. This made it possible to master and launch in the atelier all cycles of production, including casting.

Professional knowledge and experience accumulated by Stanislav Drokin are passed on today to apprentices – masters of an atelier. At the same time, new innovative technologies are put into operation. This makes it possible to save received and discover new knowledge and skills for future generations. Today in the world dominated by mass reproduction, there are not many high-level author atelier left.
