Jewelery design is an art, and I approach each piece as if it were a painting, using color as my primary inspiration. The quality of the closures and materials are the very best! I search for unique colors and combinations of materials from all over the world.I have had a jewelry store in the Rome area for over 10 years. My creations are often inspired by flowers or paintings that I have seen and reflect the joy I feel in color and design. Gems and minerals have long been known for their healing and beneficial effects, and I like to create with specific aims in mind.
Artistic profile:
I have been surrounded with art and creativity all my life, both my parents were professional artists in New York City. I followed a career in fashion design, in New York, and moved to Italy 24 years ago, continuing work in the fashion industry in the US. I became increasingly more involved in art, through painting and sculpture classes at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and began painting seriously about 10 years ago. The jewelery design is a natural continuation of this creativity.
