I come from a family of gemstones merchants going back a hundred years. In fact, I’m of the first generation who did not pursue the career. The carat series is my way to pay homage to this heritage. The 0.20 carat collection is dedicated to my mother. Her lifetime passion for precious stones and their beauty inspired my aesthetic sensibility and led me to become an artist.
