About the Item

Paysages Gris Biwa Lake Ring by Karl Mazlo Dimensions: W 2.3 x D 1.9 x H 1.9 cm. Materials: 18k Yellow gold (5.7 g) / Steel (2.57 g). Playing on contrasts and transforming the ordinary into the precious: this is Karl Mazlo's vision through this collection of Damascus steel jewelry. Usually associated with cutlery, this robust and complex metal finds a new expression here, diverted from its traditional function to become a precious material. By combining different steels through welding and forging, Karl creates unique patterns, where the intertwined layers reveal organic and unpredictable designs, similar to natural imprints. This technique makes their recycling impossible, but it is precisely this constraint that inspires his approach: to reuse Damascus steel scraps to sublime them in jewelry creations. Karl Mazlo is a Parisian jeweler who founded his research and creation workshop in 2016. A graduate of the École Boulle and trained by renowned master jewelers, he has developed a unique practice where materials and textures take center stage. Passionate about the raw qualities of materials, he seeks to reveal their natural essence by blending tradition and modernity. Through techniques such as hammering, chasing, and engraving, Karl Mazlo sculpts his creations to play with contrasts: roughness and smoothness, matte and glossy finishes, depth and lightness. Each piece becomes a sculptural work where textures amplify the poetry of the jewelry, transforming these objects into true fragments of contemplation rather than mere consumption. Karl's experience in Japan, during his residency at Villa Kujoyama, profoundly influenced his approach. There, he discovered the philosophy of wabi-sabi, which celebrates imperfections, and enriched his skills by drawing inspiration from ancestral Japanese techniques. Since then, his studio, located at the Cité Artisanale de la Villa du Lavoir in Paris, has also served as a space for encounters and collaborations with artists and craftspeople from around the world. Her jewelry, made from often forgotten materials such as damask steel or brick, questions the relationship to matter and invites us to rethink the codes of contemporary jewelry. Winner of numerous prestigious awards, including the Liliane Bettencourt Prize for the Intelligence of the Hand, Karl Mazlo's work has been exhibited in institutions such as the Grand Palais, the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum. His travels around the world continue to inspire his creations, which resonate with forgotten skills and sustainable materials.
