About
Lena Esaulova (LENAGINARIUM) is a London-based jewellery artist and designer working at the intersection of contemporary art and fine jewellery. With a background in graphic design and film, she approaches jewellery as a narrative medium, creating sculptural pieces that convey meaning beyond adornment. Her practice centres on transforming antique and vintage elements, including cameos, micromosaics and historical fragments, into complex works that blur the boundary between wearable object and art.
Through reinterpretation and upcycling, she challenges traditional notions of jewellery, prioritising emotion, tactility and narrative depth. Lina’s work is held in international collections, including the State Hermitage Museum, and she was nominated for Designer of the Year 2025 by the UK National Association of Jewellers.
Exhibiting at FORGE as part of The Secret Garden Showcase, 1 May – 1 June.
