Beatriz Ball

The roots of the BEATRIZ BALL Collection began in 1991, when Beatriz began working hand-in-hand with skillful metalware artisans and designers in the outskirts of Mexico City, jointly creating updated, innovative designs in a special lustrous alloy of many metals. Their pieces are made entirely by hand, one at a time, using the ancient art of sand casting, by pouring a premium quality alloy of molten aluminum into sand molds, then going through four different levels of polishing. More than twelve different sets of hands are involved in the creation of each piece, and the result of this intensely handmade process is a piece with a depth of character, warmth and personality that communicates in a way that only a handmade piece can. Their hardworking metal reflects the shine of silver, but requires no polishing, goes from refrigerator, to oven, to table and is perfectly suited for today's casual lifestyles but also can be displayed as a work of art.
