Collection concept:
I draw inspiration from my city, my surroundings or from the people I met. Skyline collection is an urban tale about a city that meets the sky, and it is designed to capture the essence of a constantly changing world. Precise geometric shapes and clear lines evoke the silhouettes of tall buildings and the contours of the city skyline, while subtle details, with accents of brilliance, bring to the forefront the nocturnal beauty of a luminous city. All the pieces in this collection are made from silver or gold with ebony wood and pearl accents.
