Anastasia creates fun jewelry and collectible treasures in a tiny-home studio in Whaletown. Each piece is crafted by hand in the flame with the help of sculpting tools and gravity. Most pieces are one of a kind.

The small figurines are popular as gifts, talismans, altar pieces and decorations that add colour and joy into any space.

She works on a tabletop torch in the technique called flameworking, which traces its origins all the way to ancient Egypt and the Italian Renaissance, now experiencing a modern resurgence.
