BREAKING: Dublin jewellery designer Daki Zdravka Rezic has skyrocketed to fame after her work was featured by popular celebrities Siobhan McSweeney and CMAT. This rapid rise comes just in time for the Gifted, the Contemporary Craft and Design Fair, happening from December 3-7 at Dublin’s RDS, where Daki will showcase her unique creations among over 400 exhibitors.
Authorities confirm that Daki, who began her jewellery journey crafting pieces from her kitchen table, now has the backing of notable personalities. Earlier this year, McSweeney, the host of The Traitors, wore four of Daki’s handmade earrings during the show filmed at Slane Castle. “I was thrilled to see her wear my pieces,” Daki expressed. “It gave my work incredible exposure and led to an outpouring of support.”
In an even more surprising turn, CMAT showcased Daki’s earrings in her latest music video for the single “When A Good Man Cries,” further solidifying Daki’s status as a rising star in the jewellery world.
Daki, who previously worked as a midwife and a Montessori teacher, credits a pivotal moment in her life to a book called “The Artist’s Way.” “It unleashed something in me,” she said, reflecting on her transformation from assistant to artisan. “I never imagined I would reach this level of recognition.”
Her designs are not only bold and chic but also emphasize sustainability. Daki uses upcycled materials for her metal pieces and creates bum bags from Pinatex, a sustainable leather alternative made from pineapple leaves. “My jewellery encourages individuality and stands out,” she stated.
As excitement builds for the upcoming fair, Daki’s story resonates with many aspiring artists. Her journey from a small kitchen operation to a celebrated designer highlights the impact of creativity and perseverance.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Keep an eye on Daki Zdravka Rezic’s booth at the Gifted fair, as her innovative pieces are sure to attract attention from collectors and fans alike. This is a moment that underscores the importance of supporting local artists and the power of community recognition in elevating talent to new heights.
