One to watch. Loren Nicole brings her academic
training in art history to her jewelry designs, which
she describes as artisanal expression of material
culture. Hand made with ancient techniques in a
modern world, the Beechnut collection celebrates
the tradition of classic Greek jewelry-making and
the elegance of simple, clean lines.

Mousson Atelier is a St. Petersburg, Russia-based alliance of
artists and jewelry professionals. Theirs is a wide library of
stunning, gem-studded confections and works of art made
from precious metals, stones and enamel. Especially inspiring
is their clever resurrection of the classic and lady-like brooch
as a modern statement piece for today's trendsetters. This
nuanced and delicate lily-of-the-valley brooch has the most
exquisite bell-shaped petals of gemstone and pavé diamond.

Her bi-coastal sense of fashion and editorial eye

her Pearl Cluster collection combines lustrous
pearls with a golden cage design to create a bold
display for the demure pearl.
