‘The design of these collections stems from my fascination with gemstones, their infinite variety of shades, and their ability to change colour depending on the angle from which they are viewed or the time of day.

I conceived them to reveal their sparkle, their misty hues and their secret gardens.

Through innovative and daring combinations on multiple levels, I have worked like a painter on the blending of colours, using these exceptional gems with their magnificent hues as my palette.

I have explored different ways of setting the stones to maximise the viewing angles, allowing more light to enter and thus offering the chance to admire facets that are usually hidden by the settings.”
