The Designer Vivarium was curated by the jewelery expert Vivienne Becker, and has been expanded to include more designers. Here are the 11 brands that will exhibit their jewelry at GemGen\u00e8ve 20198.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nicholas Lieou<\/strong><br \/>\nBorn and raised in Hong Kong, he studied in Europe, taking a masters degree in London at the prestigious Royal College of Art, before working for major jewelers in London and New York.
