One of a kind masterpiece
I designed my first piece of jewelry when I was 11, but never turned it into a business until recently. I've been a passionate artist all my life and my work has been showcased in prestigious international magazines and exhibitions like at United Nations Secretariat (NYC), Royal Gallery in Belgium, and the billboards of Times Square in NY, which been viewed by over 200,000 people. I won a number of art awards and was fortunate to illustrate a book for an Amazon best selling author.
In 2011, I was invited by an actress to the 63rd Prime Emmy Awards in LA and decided to create jewelry to match our red carpet gowns. I got a lot of praise for my work and was then inspired to start my jewelry line LEAFOLIA.
Every piece I create is a unique piece of art. I spend days creating a design that looks magical and I hand pick all of my stones to create a perfectly balanced arrangements. No two pieces are exactly alike. I use mostly precious and semi-precious stones to create statement pieces. Some of my larger pieces have the rich feel of a costume jewelry, but are actually fine jewelry made of natural stones and precious metals. I create a lot of attention grabbing and power pieces that are bound to turn heads. These are perfect for any major occasions like parties, weddings, graduations, and gifts. I also make simpler, sexy, and elegant jewelry that can be worn on a daily basis. My clients can also custom order jewelry for any occasion.
Each piece has a unique theme. I've traveled to over 22 countries and been inspired by the beauty of cultures and mystery of nature throughout the world. My jewelry is now carried by high-end boutiques around the US and I'm very excited to bring it to Etsy!
