Dear family,
What you see here is the result of nonstop work — countless all-nighters, frustrations, and sleepless nights. The past few months have been the most demanding I’ve ever experienced.
When I received the call from Fashion Trust, my latest collection was still in production; we’re a small team, and things move at their own pace. But I wanted to show my newest work, so I pushed everything forward to make it happen.
Our partner atelier in Paris brought most of the jewelry to life in far less time than any of us imagined possible. We also chose to show what wasn’t finished yet — because process is at the heart of what we do, and anything truly good takes time.
Everything surrounding the jewelry was built by hand with intention. I designed and cut every tray, covered them in fabric, and sculpted the wax for each bronze piece that holds and tells the story behind every jewel. All of it brought to life alongside the craftsmen who worked with us every step of the way.
I share this award with my clients, who make all of this possible, and who were generous enough to lend us their pieces. You are family. And to my team, and every friend and family member who believed in me and stood by me when things became difficult — this is yours too.
What is built from love has no fear of time.
Thank you to
@FashionTrustUS for the opportunity to show our work, to evolve, and to keep creating.
The soap popsicles you received are a little fun invite: our new studio on the Upper East Side is coming, and we cannot wait.
