Get to know Francesca U

Francesca Urciuoli is an Italian jewellery designer and maker. Since starting her jewellery education she has not stopped travelling, hungry for new adventures to draw her out of her comfort zone, and to learn new jewellery techniques and languages.

From Perugia, a small city in the centre of Italy, she moved to Florence for her BFA at Alchimia, School of Contemporary Jewellery, and consequently to the USA for her MFA at SUNY New Paltz. After her studies, she undertook several internships in the USA, first in Delaware at Heidi Lowe Gallery and then in San Diego, CA, where she was a studio assistant for metalsmith Anne Wolf. During that time, she learned to work with the mokume gane technique and since then, Francesca has not stopped learning and experimenting with it. After her experience in the USA she moved to the UK, where she started her own brand while doing a residency at the Birmingham school of Jewellery. After two years, she moved to Berlin, Germany, where she started growing roots and working as a freelancer jewellery designer. In September 2021 she opened her own Atelier, What If studio gallery, where she is currently teaching jewellery classes and developing new jewellery collections for her brand.
