Description
Witty, urbane, and edgy, Azagury-Partridge s jewels are known for their explosive design and provocative themes and characterized by bold and unconventional use of color and material. Her work has gained a dedicated following in the fashion and jewelry industries for its innovation and avant-garde designs that set her apart from more traditional jewelry houses. Celebrities and tastemakers such as Julianne Moore, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Beyonce beat a path to Solange s London boutique, drawn to her iconoclastic, pop-art influenced jewels, playfully irreverent yet subtly layered with cultural and historical meaning and redolent of talismanic traditions. Her expressive rings, alive with color, remain her best-known and most innovative creations. Her love of language and meaning became part of the creative process, informing the names of her collections: Stoned, Chromance, Regalia, Poptails, Scribbles, Sentimentals, Hotlips, and Metamorphosis. Her first book offers a rainbow array of the styles and collections that this singular jeweler has brought to life.
