Everyday bottle caps of all kinds fall into the earth. It's my job to pick them up. I pay homage to them by casting them in precious metal. It feels good to take something that has been discarded and to give it another life. This is how globalcool0 started. Now it can't be stopped.
Italian born Patrizia Iacino is known for taking everyday objects considered as trash to most such as used contact lens cases and milk bottle caps and juxtaposing them with precious metal, stone and pearls to create one of a kind hand crafted jewelry. The next time you throw away an innocent bottle cap or contact lens case, it just might end up around someone's neck as a beautiful piece of jewelry.
