/Andrés Gallardo: A journey to the porcelain jungle.

04/

Las panteras y elefantes de porcelana de Andrés Gallardo ya tienen hábitat propio: un luminoso local de la calle madrileña Conde de Romanones nº5. La marca de joyas más especial del panorama español acaba de cumplir su último sueño, abrir una tienda y mostrar sus piezas de arte en el espacio que se merecen. Marina Casal y Andrés Gallardo, las dos mentes detrás de la sensación kitsch-elegante, nos han abierto las puertas de su particular selva creativa para contarnos los detalles de la marca, desde su nacimiento hasta lo que veremos en los próximos meses.Jungle Bloom, así se titulaba la primera colección que ya en 2012 conquistó a estilistas y apasionados de la moda. Panteras, flores y elefantes vivían su historia de amor mientras Marina y Andrés experimentaban con nuevas maneras de utilizar la porcelana. Primero a partir de piezas ya elabora-das que rompían y unían con otras diferentes (lo que convertía cada collar en único), y más tarde creando motivos y elementos desde cero gracias a talleres de artesanos expertos en este frágil material. Conejos, leones, margaritas, y leopardos fueron uniéndose a la familia a la vez que iban in-troduciendo técnicas diferentes: baños de oro, de plata, partes de cuero… Y ya no sólo son collares, también hay pendientes, brazaletes, diademas y una genial línea de bolsos.De La Latina llegaron a Premiere Classe, la feria de joyería más prestigiosa y exclusiva del circuito. Allí entraron en contacto con clientes internacionales y comenzó su expansión hacia todos los rincones del planeta. En Japón son súper fans de sus creaciones. Conquistaron hasta a Lana del Rey, que tras ser fotografiada para la portada de SModa con uno de sus collares quiso lle-várselo a casa. Drew Barrymore y Tali Lennox son otras de sus seguidoras. En su taller se escucha a Schubert, no faltan libros del pintor naïf Rous-seau, y el mensajero entra varias veces para recoger pedidos. A continua-ción, el recuerdo del viaje a una jungla de porcelana.

¿Podríais contarnos cómo es el proceso creativo de una de vuestras piezas?

Andrés. Lo primero que solemos hacer es buscar una pieza ya existente que hayamos encontrado en el Rastro o en algún anticuario, y nos quedamos con la parte que más nos guste, rompiéndola o cortándola. A partir de ahí vamos pensando qué podemos hacer con esa pieza y cómo podemos mezclarla con otros elementos, lo que evolucionará a otras cosas.

Ahora tenéis talleres que os elaboran piezas desde cero, eso os dará muchí-sima libertad…

Marina. Sí. Como al principio el proceso era ése, eran todo piezas únicas. Cuando em-pezamos a ir a ferias y a trabajar con más clientes, comenzamos a necesitar más capacidad de producción, por lo que buscamos talleres de porcelana y artesanos que llevaran toda la vida trabajando para que nos dieran esa base técnica que nosotros no conocíamos. Una vez que nosotros hubiéramos dado con una pieza, a través de los talleres podríamos decorarla con diferentes motivos y colores, e incluso trabajar con piezas desde cero. Mo-delándolas de forma diferente para que encaje en un brazalete por ejemplo…

Andrés. Con el que trabajamos tiene algo de escultor, y si queremos por ejemplo que nos haga un animal en una postura, o hacia un lado u otro, lo trabajamos con él y lo va tallando mientras nosotros le guiamos hacia lo que nos gusta. Es un lujazo.

Una de las trabajadoras del taller está feliz de que le encarguéis tantas flores porque adora hacerlas…

M. Sí, es su mujer. Ellos tenían una fábrica en Portugal que con todo el rollo de la crisis y la bajada de la demanda tuvieron que cerrar. Él siguió trabajando con algún cliente por amor al arte y su mujer abrió una tienda de ropa. Pero ella es una fanática de la producción de flores, que se hacen todas a mano, pétalo a pétalo. Cuando aparecimos nosotros, con todas las flores que necesitábamos, ella estaba encantada de volver a trabajar en lo que le apasiona.

¿Cuáles son las particularidades de la porcelana frente a otros materiales?

A. Hay que conocer muy bien el material.

M. Es arriesgado, porque depende de la hornada, de que esté todo en su punto de cocción… Es como cocinar (ríe). El proceso para hacer una simple palomita es una locura cuando lo ves.

A. Todo depende de que la temperatura sea la adecuada.

M. Es un trabajo muy manual. En nuestro caso, totalmente, pero incluso en las fábricas grandes no hay casi nada automatizado. Es una labor que apenas se puede automatizar, eso es lo complicado y también lo bonito.

A. Las flores se hacen a mano, una a una, y ahí está la delicadeza de la persona que las haga. Se nota cuando la flor está hecha con unas manos toscas.

Ambos contáis con la experiencia de haber trabajado para otras marcas, como Don Algodón o Bimba&Lola antes de embarcaros en vuestra propia aventura. ¿Qué lecciones aprendisteis allí que apliquéis ahora?

A. Todo. Tras trabajar en otras marcas durante diez años ahora podemos estar muy tran-quilos con nuestra propia empresa porque sabemos qué queremos y qué no queremos.

M. Sobre todo sabemos lo que no queremos. Porque cuando tienes tu propia empresa o tu propio proyecto te aparecen mil cosas que no esperabas o que no controlas, pero por lo menos sí sabes qué camino no tienes que coger. La suerte es que hemos trabajado en empresas medianas y así hemos podido tocar todo, desde precio, producción, diseño, trato con clientes, ferias…

A. Si hubiéramos empezado nuestra empresa desde cero sin esa experiencia nos habría-mos llevado bastantes decepciones. Llegar con las cosas sabidas te ayuda muchísimo, y tu actitud ante las cosas es diferente.

M. Cuando has vivido ya en el mundo de la moda tienes unos estándares de calidad altos. Nosotros entramos en esto y no sabíamos nada de porcelana a nivel técnico, pero por lo menos sí que sabíamos que el producto tenía que tener una cierta calidad, que no fuera algo amateur.

Soléis mencionar que las ferias han sido un paso esencial en el crecimiento de vuestra marca…

A. Las ferias para nosotros han sido súper importantes porque es lo que nos ha puesto en contacto con el cliente internacional.

M. Nuestra venta en un 70% es de fuera.

A. Tenemos la suerte de haber entrado en la mejor feria de joyería y accesorios de Europa, la Premiere Classe. Cuesta mucho entrar porque hay un proceso de selección, no basta sólo con pagar para entrar. Estamos al lado de marcas que son referencias para nosotros…

M. De ahí salen no sólo los pedidos, sino también los contactos con la prensa internacional.

A. Como coincide con la semana de la moda de París, mucha gente a la que el gusta la moda pasa por allí, te ve, coge una tarjeta… Eso al final hace que te siga en las redes sociales y te conozcan.

¿Cómo dibujaríais la evolución de vuestra marca desde la primera colección, Jungle Bloom, hasta ahora?

A. Sobre todo ha habido un aumento de calidad y a nivel de diseño.

M. Se notan también las posibilidades que nos ha dado trabajar con talleres. A nivel creativo se nota mucho. Aunque hay piezas de los inicios que sí hemos conservado.

A. De hecho son las que más se venden. La pantera con la flor…

M. Se han convertido en nuestros clásicos.

A. Y continúan, simplemente cambiamos un color, o la introducimos en otra colección,

como los elefantes juntitos… Para nosotros es un logro que esas piezas no mueran y formen parte de tu marca y que la reconozcan.

M. También hemos crecido a nivel de variedad, y ahora tenemos anillos, pendientes, y bolsos. En las ferias es donde te das cuenta que las colecciones tienen que ir creciendo. Al principio nosotros teníamos miedo, pero en cuanto nos pusimos en contacto con joyeros comenzamos a hacer colecciones mucho más completas y más centradas.

A. Sí, las primeras colecciones eran como: “Venga, vamos a volvernos locos aquí a muer-te…” (ríe). Y además estábamos limitados a lo que encontrásemos: si encontrábamos un loro, pues hacíamos un loro… Ahora no, ahora ya nos paramos a pensar: a ver este pico, o una colección de huesos… Pero por otro lado no queremos perder la esencia y segui-mos buscando piezas que nos atraigan. Ahora intentamos ir hacia otros estilos, como por ejemplo las formas geométricas, pero al final los clientes quieren las piezas icónicas. Están tan presentes en nuestras colecciones que lo siguen buscando. Es una cosa que irá desapareciendo sola…

M. O no.

A. O no, me encantaría que siempre estuvieran, pero no sé, que hubiera…

M. Esperamos que pierda un poco de protagonismo y que la gente sepa valorar otras temáticas en nuestras colecciones, como esa parte geométrica que nos gusta mucho, que vamos metiendo poco a poco y que va teniendo su puntito.

¿En qué momento de vuestra trayectoria pensasteis: “Wow, lo que hemos conseguido”?

M. Mirando atrás dices: “quién nos iba a decir a nosotros que en dos años íbamos a estar aquí”.

A. Hace nada estábamos en mi casa, en mi habitación trabajando. Venía algún estilista y presentábamos la colección en mi cuarto, nos sentábamos en la cama… Y mira ahora.

M. Cuando salió la portada de Lana del Rey en SModa [con collar Andrés Gallardo] fue una pasada.

A. Hace poco nos ha comprado varias piezas Paul Smith para su tienda en Londres… Para nosotros siempre era un punto de venta de referencia. Pero lo mejor es tener un espacio así [la tienda propia] como este donde trabajar. Era una ilusión que teníamos siempre.

Coleccionáis figuras de porcelana, ¿cuál es la más extraña que tenéis?

A. Tenemos una pequeña familia de porcelana que va creciendo poco a poco. Son casi todo animales. La última que hemos comprado ha sido un caballo de Lladró súper bo-nito, y tenemos una muy especial que es un perro salchicha sentado con el cuello muy largo, entre realista y dibujo animado. Es nuestra mascota, se llama butifarra (ríen) La más rara… Una vez me compré un esquimal en el Rastro que ya había visto en eBay y en casas de porcelana y de repente la vi en el Rastro tirada, me costó dos duros y es una pieza muy buena. No es rara pero es muy especial, está pintada con muchísimo detalle.

¿Qué nos podéis avanzar de la próxima colección?

A. Nos estamos metiendo en el mundo fruta (risas). Composiciones surrealistas, como conejos con limones con tamaños fuera de lo natural. Lazos…

M. Siempre llevamos elementos de una colección a otra.

A. Seguimos utilizando conejos pero en otras posiciones. Esto es porque los clientes, sobre todo los japoneses, quieren conejos todo el rato… Estamos ampliando también el tema de los bolsos, con otros colores y tamaños…

The porcelain panthers and elephants by Andrés Gallardo have their own habitat now: a light-filled store in 5, Conde de Romanones street in Madrid. The most special jewellery label of the Spanish landscape has just seen how their wish came true, having a shop and showcasing their art pieces in the space they deserve. Marina Casal and Andrés Gallardo, the two minds behind the elegant-kitsch sensation, have opened the doors of the particular creative jungle to tell us the details of their label, from its birth to what we’ll see in the next few months.Jungle Bloom, that’s how the first collection was named. A collection that con-quered stylists and fashion fans. Panthers, flowers and elephants lived their love story while Marina and Andrés experimented with new ways of using porcelain. First they used already-made figurines that they broke and added to others (which meant that every necklace was unique). And now they colla-borate with artisan ateliers specialized in this fragile material. Rabbits, lions, daisies and leopards joined the family, as well as new techniques: gold and sil-ver platings, leather parts… Soon they started creating new pieces: earrings, bracelets, headbands, and a great collection of handbags.From La Latina neighbourhood they arrived to Premiere Classe, the most

prestigious and exclusive jewelry fair in the circuit. There they got in contact with international clients and began their expansion to all corners of the pla-net. They love their creations in Japan. Even Lana del Rey was seduced by their pieces: she kept the Andrés Gallardo necklace she wore for the cover of SModa magazine. Drew Barrymore and Tali Lennox are some of their fans.In their atelier you can listen to Schubert, there’s always a book of naïf painter Rousseau open, and the courier guy comes in several times to get deliveries for some distant country. This is the memory of a travel to a porcelain jungle.

Could you tell us about the creative process of one of your pieces?

Andrés. The first thing we usually do is search for an existing piece we found on el Rastro or at some antique shop, and keep the part that we like, breaking or cutting it. From there we think about what we can do with that piece and how we can mix it with other elements, which will lead us to more ideas.

Now you collaborate with workshops that produce parts from scratch, that must give you a lot of freedom...

Marina. Yes, as at first the process was that, all the pieces were unique. When we started going to trade shows and work with more customers, we began to need more production ca-pacity, so we looked for porcelain workshops and craftsmen with a lot of experience in wor-king with porcelain in order to give us the technical base that we did not had yet. Once we find a piece, through the ateliers we can decorate it with different patterns and colors, and even work with pieces from scratch. Shaping them differently to fit a bracelet for example...

Andrés. His job [the craftman’s] is similar to that of a sculptor. If we want to make an animal in a specific position, we work with him and he carves while we guide him to what we want. It’s a privilege.

One of the atelier workers is very happy because you order many flower figurines and she loves making them…

M. Yes, she's his wife. They had a factory in Portugal that due to the crisis and the fall in demand they had to close down. He kept working for a client for art's sake and his wife opened a clothing store. But she was a fan of flower production, which are made all by hand, petal by petal. When we showed up, with all the flowers we needed, she was delighted to return to work in what she loved.

What are the characteristics of porcelain in comparison with other materials?

A. You have to know the material very well.

M. It's risky because it depends on the batch, it is all in the point of cooking... It's like cooking (laughs). The process to make a simple dove is crazy when you see it.

A. It all depends on the temperature.

M. It's mostly handmade. In our case it completily is, but even in large factories almost nothing is automated. It is a task that can hardly be automated, it is what makes it so complicated, and so beautiful at the same time.

A. The flowers are made by hand, one by one, and there is the delicacy of the person making them. You can tell when the flower has been made with rough hands.

You both have the experience of having worked for other brands such as Don Al-godón or Bimba & Lola before embarking on your own adventure. What lessons did you learn there that you apply today?

A. Everything. After working for other brands for ten years we can now be very comfor-table with our own company because we know what we want and what we do not want.

M. Mostly what we do not want. Because when you have your own company or your own project thousand things that you did not expect or that you do not control appear, but at least you know which way you don’t have to take. Fortunately, the companies we worked in weren’t too large, so we could work in many different areas: price, production, design, dealing with customers, trade shows...

A. If we had started our business from scratch, without that experience we would have faced many disappointments. Arriving with knowledge helps you a lot, and your attitude towards things is different.

M. If you have already lived in the fashion world you have high standards of quality. We knew nothing of porcelain at a technical level, but at least we knew that the product had to have a certain quality, that it wasn’t going to be amateur.

You usually mention that the tradeshows have been an essential step in the growth of your brand...

A. The exhibitions have been super important for us because it is what has put us in touch with the international client.

M. Our sales are 70% international.

A. We are lucky to have entered the best show of jewelry and accessories in Europe, the Premie-re Classe Tuilleries. It is very difficult to get in because there is a selection process, it’s not only a

matter of paying a fee. Now we are next to brands that were references for us when we started.

M. There we receive not only orders, but also contacts from international media...

A. As it takes place at the same time that Paris Fashion Week does, lots of people form the indusry comes along and see us, get our card, follow us on social networks…

How would you draw the evolution from your first collection, Jungle Bloom, until now?

A. There has been an improvement in quality and design.

M. The possibilities that working with ateliers has given us also show. It is evident at the creative level. Even though there are pieces from our beginnings that we have kept.

A. In fact, they are the best-selling items. The panther with the flower...

M. They have turned into our classics.

A. And they stay, they are only modified through color, or we add them to another collection, like the little elephants together… For us it is a great achievement that these pieces don’t die and be part of our label, and that people recognize them.

M. We have also grown at the variety level, and now we have rings, earrings, and han-dbags. At the fairs is where you realize that the collections have grow. At first we were afraid, but once we got in touch with other jewelers we started making much more comprehensive and more focused collections.

A. Yes, the first collections were like, "Come, let's go crazy..." (laughs). And we were limited to what we would find: if we found a parrot, we made a parrot... Not now, now you think about it: I want this beak, or I want to make a bone...” But on the other hand we do not want to lose the essence and we continue looking for pieces that appeal to us. Now we try to go to other styles, such as geometric shapes, but at the end, customers want the iconic pieces. They are so present in our collections that they still look for them. It is something that will disappear by itself...

M. Or not.

A. Or not, I would love that they stayed, but I don’t know, I would like that they…

M. We hope that they lose some importance and that people will appreciate other the-mes in our collections, like that geometric side that we love, we are getting into it very slowly and it is quite interesting.

At wat moment in the label’s trajectory did you think, "Wow, this is big!?"

M. Looking back, we say "Who was going to tell us that in two years we would be here."

A. Just a couple of years we were at my apartment working in my bedroom. The stylists came to see the collection and we showed it to them while sitting on my bed… And look where we are now.

M. When the cover of Lana Del Rey in SMODA came out [with a necklace by Andrés Gallardo] it was awesome.

A. The Paul Smith store just bought part of our collection to sell it there. For us it was always a selling point of reference. But it is best to have a space [their own shop] like this to work. It was a dream that we always had.

You collect porcelain figures, what is the strangest one that you have?

A. We have a small family of porcelain that is slowing getting larger. They are mostly all animals. The last one we bought was a super nice horse by Lladró, and we have a very special one, a dachshund sitting with very long neck, a mix between realism and cartoon. It is our mascot, we call it “Butifarra” [sausage in Spanish] (laughs) The strangest one... I bought an Innuit in el Rastro that I had seen on eBay and porcelain houses and suddenly saw at el Rastro for only two bucks, even though it is a very good piece. It is strange but it is very special, it is painted with great detail.

What can you tell us about the next collection?

A. We're getting into the fruit world (laughs) Surrealist compositions, like rabbits with lemons with unexpected sizes. Also bows…

M. We always take elements from one collection to another.

A. We still use rabbits but in other positions. This is because our customers, especially those from Japan, want them all the time... We are also expanding the handbag collec-tion with other colors and sizes.
