store before completing the interview. We are
going into the workshop with Lori Sinanoglu
and Aleksan Yoldaş. The bright, white light dominated
the workshop. Aleksan Yoldaş
indicates that strong white light
is important for fine craftsmanship.
On the bench some jewelery
tools resembling a miniature
carpenter's tools, some
jewelery on producing stage and
a piece of ebony. Aleksan Yoldaş
says that production process requires
as much patience as the design
phase. All products are wholly handmade.
We take a small piece of ebony
material, and think we can make
20 pieces from this material.We start
to work, when the product is nearly
to be finished, we met a tree vessel,
so entire work is going to the
trash completely. So we could only
get three pieces of product instead
of 20 pieces. She indicates that this
job requires patience and is also arduous Lori Sinanoglu
says that it represents a big chance for him
to be close to the workshop environment.
I think the most concrete example of the
master-apprentice relationship is being experienced
here. My theoretical knowledge,
I learned at school, and practical knowledge
of Mr. Aleksan. Every day I learn something
new here. We are working with gold,
it’s a very precious mine. You need
to work with people you trust.
So we have a relationship with
Mr Aleksan without any trouble
in terms of the trust
‘’says Lori and adds that
the workshop environment
particularly attracts female
customers.
"First, I Should Really Like!"
We asked both Lori and Aleksan
about stages which the
jewel passed through. Sinanoglu
shares the model with his uncle,
which she had designed according
to the mood in
that moment. The unclenephew
exchange ideas
If the designs are going
to be implemented,
and changes if
they are needed.
Aleksan Yoldaş
is passing to design
workshop
with the final state
of the design.
A completed form of a product
with stones emerges after 10 tiring
days in workshop. Lori Sinanoğlu
tells that she should like the products,
she designed, first.. If it doesn’t happen, she
can not show the product to the customer as
beautiful.
Unfortunately, I am interested in the marketing
part of the work too. In fact, this is not a
very easy thing for a designer, because
you need to be in the background. I'm
correlating a particular relationship with
my designs, and sometimes I wish not to
sell it. Lori Sinanoglu reports that they are
working for the brand’s recognition abroad
as well as within the country and evaluating
fair proposal because of this
reason. She indicates that his designs
were showcased at two
separate fairs in Bahrain and
Istanbul. She also reminds
that they had participated in
fair organized by Community
Volunteers Foundation
in Esma Sultan Palace.She
also reports that they also received
a proposal to introduce
his Ebony designs in Switzerland.
We leave him with our best
wishes and hopes...
