I am Tea Gugava, 48 years old, a wife and mother of three. For 22 years, I served as a nurse at the Critical Care Medicine Center.

Since childhood, I have been passionate about art, color composition, and creativity in all its forms. In 2015, I completed a jewelry-making course specializing in the Soutache technique. Creating my own designs while raising three children was highly demanding, yet the joy of creation inspired me to invest all my energy into learning and working harder.

In 2020, during the pandemic, my interest in exploring new horizons led me to master the art of ribbon embroidery. This technique fascinated me and changed how I perceive nature and the world. I began creating original designs and participated in numerous exhibitions. Although I accept commissions, I am not purely sales-oriented; I cherish keeping my own handiwork. However, it is an immense pleasure when others appreciate and desire to own my creations. I am grateful to everyone who provides me with the motivation to keep innovating.

In 2024, I expanded my skills into bead embroidery, mastering diverse techniques such as Aari, Canvafelt, and 3D embroidery. These methods offer endless possibilities for creating unique jewelry, which has already garnered significant acclaim. I thank God for this opportunity.
