Born in Beruit during Lebanon's Golden Era, Rosa Maria was often captivated by the jewellery collected by her parents on their travels. She first began to create her own jewellery for her own enjoyment, keeping in mind the fascination and beauty she had been presented with as a child. By mixing materials in an unconventional manner and using a wild array of stones, such as diamonds, rubies, sapphires, tourmalines and topaz, an avant-garde aesthetic was soon established and Rosa Maria began to work more seriously as a designer. It is like a puzzle with someone putting the bits together to create different combinations she says of her work. Dedicating her jewellery to a person that has character, style and personality, the story that reflects Rosa Marias unique designs continues within this collection.
