Anello in oro giallo 14 carati con turchese e diamanti

All thanks to great-grandmother: the Adina Reyter brand in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, has conquered a place among the favorite jewelers of women, and not just Hollywood stars, even its first client is called Demi Moore. Founded in 2001, the Maison Adina Reyter was born after the designer worked in the world of advertising and fashion. But it is the teaching of the family clothing company that has been the fuel for her business.

As the founder of the jewelry brand tells, the story of the family begins with the great-grandmother, who immigrated to the United States without knowing the English language, but despite this, she was able to create a clothing company, then carried on by her sons. The story of those immigrants was part of Adina’s childhood, who as a young girl worked in the family business as a designer, in charge of sales, packaging and shipping. The AR brand is based on the idea of offering jewels at reasonable prices, so that women can shop for themselves and use every day, always for years to come. But quality jewelry that can be worn in any situation.

Jose Hess, from necklaces refined gold and diamonds, to the cufflinks with Mickey’s face: the luxury meets pop.

One of the most imaginative designers of the century: perhaps can be defined in this way Jose Hess, but is also ok a definition as an artist or craftsperson. In short, it is one of those rare people who can do many things well but, above all, has a very definite personality, which turns her skills into precious objects. Master goldsmith, designer and gemologist, is a supporter of an American jewelry design, somewhere between pop and the extra luxury. Alongside refined necklaces, like the necklace Ribbon, you see on this page, you can find the twins by gold wrist with the face of Mickey Mouse. In addition to focusing on the creative process, moreover, Jose Hess teaches jewelry design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, he worked as a consultant for jewelry companies in the US and abroad, and draws collections of jewelry that are sold on television, with himself to make live presentations.

Another proof of its many attitudes? It was also the first American president to Cibjo, an international association that seeks to establish uniform standards for the jewelry industry worldwide. Jose is worshiped also in Hollywood, by celebrities such as Demi Moore, Cindy Crawford, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Candy Spelling. Jose Hess also has a story to tell: he was born in Germany, but fled with his family to Colombia, South America, before Nazi rule. In the South American country he was apprenticed to a goldsmith, where he learned the art of jewelry making. In 1951 Hess moved to New York, still working in the jewelry industry. He also served as a soldier for two years in the United States Army. Back in civilian life, he made models and jewelry for David Webb, before working for himself. Hess has also received numerous awards, including the De Beers Diamonds International Award. Alessia Mongrando

Anello della collezione Petra con ametista e diamanti

Kara Ross, the American designer jewelry that is appreciate to people like Michelle Obama (https://gioiellis.com/kara-ross-piace-michelle-obama), Oprah Winfrey and Demi Moore, loves contrasts. She likes the combination of old and new, worked and raw, chiseled and smooth. This is evident in the Petra collection, which takes its name from the great archaeological site in southern Jordan. A series of rings using the strong contrast stressed by a division into two of the upper part of the jewel. A thin strip of gold, wavy, with small diamonds, marks the border between the rough stone, as found in nature, and the area worked by human hands. Result: the crystals of the gems that are found in their natural state are often even more fascinating of the stones cut in geometric dimensions. Amethyst, opal blue, hemimorphite blue, green chrysocolla, uvarovite: stones that look just emerged from subsoil assume an unexpected dimension. On the other hand, the designer is also a gemologist: one who understands the value, origin and characteristics of the stones that triumph on the jewelry he designs. Lavinia Andorno
