VAN creates timeless fine jewellery pieces that transcend time and place. Handcrafted in Italy by local artisans, the articulated VAN ROBOTS are playful and tactile, standing out and creating intrigue due to their originality, unique movement, quality and style.VANITY FAIR described them perfectly:"Van Robot brings that much-needed frivolity and all-round fabulousness to your collection. Crafted in yellow gold, these weighty, tactile bijoux-bots are futuristic in design yet made according to classical Tuscan techniques. Art Deco meets sci-fi with geometric, almost architectural designs defining legs and arms that move much like that of a toy robot. They are the perfect fun stress-buster to add to your everyday attire—say hello to your new Zoom conversation starter. Better still, each Van Robot pendant can be personalised with endless precious-stone combinations and colour ways to make a piece that is 100 per cent "you"."The launch collection consisted of four VAN ROBOTS: Pinky, Smeraldo, Roma and Amore, each fine jewellery pendant is a unique modern treasure handcrafted in Italy, from 18 kt gold and precious stones. Tatiana Van Lancker, the creator and founder of VAN, also offers to design bespoke VAN ROBOTS for clients, customizing each element, from the head to the feet with different coloured stones to create a truly unique and personalized jewellery piece.VAN plans to launch the VAN ROBOT EARRINGS and VAN ROBOT LUNA PICCOLO, both Diamond and Aquamarine. Future products, including the VAN INCA SIGNET RING and VAN INCA COLLAR are also in the pipeline."Central to my inspiration for VAN was my desire to design heritage pieces that transcend time and place. I am passionate about Art Deco jewellery but always had an eye on contemporary design and I wanted to fuse the two into jewellery that feels relevant today. I love jewellery that starts a conversation and so also wanted to bring an element of magic and surprise into the designs".
