Pico Design by Andrea Panico
www.picomeanslittle.comAt Pico Design, I believe in creating simple pieces that are quiet in their appeal. Clean lines, unfussy design, and surprise details are common in all of my jewelry. I feel strongly that each piece should be well made, and have a lifespan that outlasts trend and fashion. I want to create accessories that are unique and make you feel the same. I am fully aware that you can buy basics from mass market brands at cheaper prices, but I am committed to providing minimalist pieces made by hand in the United States. While minimalism means different things to different people, to me it includes owning fewer, better things. It means creating less waste in my personal and professional life. And it means presenting an honest and simple version of myself to colleagues, friends and family. These are the standards I measure against when I create new Pico jewelry. Having spent the majority of my career working alongside architects, interior designers, industrial designers and other creative women and men, I know that I am not alone in my approach. In the words of Antoine de Saint-Exupery, "A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." My Montclair, NJ studio uses best practices and sustainable materials and methods to ensure both safety and quality. Our primary materials are sterling silver, 14/20 karat gold filled, and brass. We started out using these materials because of their relative affordability. So while I am not creating "fine jewelry" per se, the care and precision of these handmade pieces make them equally as viable as heirlooms, especially with proper care. As of 2021, Pico will also be venturing further into fine jewelry, creating variations and new designs in 14K yellow gold.
