A Fine Jewelry Tribute to Life Spent by the Sea

I thought about home in Curaçao. I wanted to capture the ease with which jewelry is worn in the Caribbean. There’s a laid back approach to Fine Jewelry, a casual elegance. The same piece of jewelry could be worn to an ocean swim as to a formal affair. It’s about how the piece makes you feel, it becomes a part of your story.

I conceived Beck as a collection of Fine Jewelry pieces distinguished by the design tensions between my life in New York and my island roots — the raw and the polished, the paradox of strong and fine, fluidity and gravity; a narrative of opposites emphasized by the smoothness of repetitive ridges and the beauty of bold hardware lines.

Our AWA collection envelopes the shades of blue and rhythmic textures of ocean waves. Each piece carries within the spirit of my native island—my endless fascination and deep respect for the sea.
