About me

Welcome to Spirited Grace! I’m Francesca Lobbe, and I’ve been handcrafting jewelry since 2005. My journey began with a fascination for my mother’s bobbin lace pillow, which sparked dreams of creating beautiful art like the skilled women I admired.

The photo on the left captures a cherished memory of wandering through an ancient Abruzzo town, where I watched women crafting lace on the streets. It reminds me how traditional art can connect us across time.

I was born and raised in Italy, and art had always been a part of my everyday life: from the family Sunday mass in a beautiful Gothic church, to the ancient frescos on my high school walls.

 

My artistic family inspired me: my uncle created music from everyday objects, my father crafted intricate inlaid chessboards, and my mother taught my sister and me the joys of embroidery and crochet.

Driven by my love for jewelry and bobbin lace, I poured my heart into creating unique pieces that resonate with boho-chic lovers. Today, I’m thrilled to share my creations with customers around the world through my online store. My hope is that my work inspires your free spirit and adds a touch of artistry to your everyday life.
