When I think of paper, I think about writing and origami. Origami is the art of paper folding. It is a form of sculptural representation of art using paper. I knew that it could be turned into jewelry but this specific person makes jewelry fantastically.

According to Hila, the ‘Kipul’ (folded) collection was inspired by years of origami making with her dad and her grandfathers’ books. The pieces were originally created with various types of folded sheet materials, mostly paper, in the thought of mass producing them in the same techniques as mass produced paper lanterns and ornaments. She still hand make these pieces upon request. In this summer collection the technique was transformed into pleating of various types of textiles and leathers. In spite of the use of a simple familiar raw material, the use of the origami folding manipulations results in unique and surprising pieces. These breath-taking crafted pieces incorporate industrial techniques with a high degree of hand making.’
