2011 Winner piece
Designer: Carla Nesci
"The love for transformation has led me to be a creator, a designer. After practicing interior design for six years, I've got to realize that true design lays on the details. I see accessories as vital details in fashion. Any routinely outfit can be enlightened by the right accessory. As the fourth generation of goldsmiths and jewelers, I'm currently managing the family business and handling the production of our great designs. My tendency to design art deco inspired pieces has led me to take this opportunity to present to you a geometric but daring piece. Hope you love it!!!"
