"A brooch is a fashion accessory. But there are a lot of them ... We wanted to create something unique that you will not find anywhere else, and at the same time - stylish. And we found what we were looking for!" - say our today's heroines.
About Leading Page
The page of the 17kulonov creative association on Instagram is led by two friends who in October 2017 came up with and organized this project, artist Anna Skorobogatova and designer Iolanta Serebryakova. Then the business began with the production of pendants - this is how the name appeared, which the project retains now, although today the most popular 17kulonov product is painted leather brooches-badges. In addition to pendants and badges, 17kulonov also make paintings on leather bags.

Anna says: “I have been painting since childhood, I love the work of Salvador Dali and Aivazovsky. I started painting them on my bags. The first icon was created by chance, it can be said to be an upgrade of the pendant. It was glued from two circles of leather on the front Aivazovsky’s picture was printed on the side. Here is the expression “the first pancake is lumpy” - just about him! So he looked ... But Iolanta said: the idea is brilliance! And we began to work on it. Subsequently, we improved the production technology, so now the badges are no longer only beautiful, but soft and pleasant.Then the brand got a name, a logo, packaging, website appeared ... But we keep our first badge, it reminds us how much we have already passed in this short period of time. "
Says Iolanta: “A brooch is a fashion accessory. But there are a lot of them ... We wanted to create something unique that you will not find anywhere else, and at the same time, stylish. And we found what we were looking for!”

What this page is about
Page 17kulonov is primarily about jewelry (brooches and pendants) made of leather, hand-painted or decorated with a print, plus - about painting on leather in general, and if you take it wider - about the use of painting in decoration. The themes of the murals are different: here you can find copies of masterpieces of world painting, portraits of cult personalities, there is a retro collection and a ruler in the tropic chic style, there are brooches made in the spirit of classic tattoos, plus designer brooches made according to the sketches of invited illustrators.
“Together we create collections on different topics, build on trends, but also leave a place for classics. We love and are proud of our work and, of course, we wear our own badges!” - says Anna.
