The U.S.A. is a huge country, playing a leading role in the world of jewelry. And with a movie industry that outshines all other red carpet industries in the world. In the land of endless opportunities, there are so many exciting jewelry brands.
I have made my choice, based on how I look at jewelry. With a love for the eclectic, but with a love also for the classics and brands that have a history. I adore young jewelry designers and honor the ones that have proven their stability and shown their identity. Love to know which American Jewelry Brands are my favorites?

This weeks jewelry video comes from a personal favorite of mine: de Grisogono. Yes, I do love their incredible high jewelry collections, but I adore their less expensive, more accessible jewelry even more. We must warn you for this video: it is cuteness overload!

TEFAF 2017 was once again an extraordinary event. I love to visit it, because it hosts some of the most amazing jewelry brands in this world. But it’s not just that. Visiting trade fairs is an inspiring experience, but visiting a fair where clients come instead of business peers, it is a completely different experience. Somehow, I feel even more excited and I love to observe how the public looks at the jewelry. How the public reacts to collections and creations.

Working as a jewelry blogger and journalist has brought me a lot! One of the things it brought me is a curious journey of discovering jewelry from countries that we don’t find usually in Europe or the U.S. It’s not just me, enjoying this journey, but lots of people do! As we open our hearts and minds more and more towards physical or virtual travelling to other countries, different cultures with visions of beauty, art and life, both interesting and astonishing.
