About Me: Irina Zjuzina
Originally specializing in sweater design,I was always interested in jewelry. After taking classes with a local designer, I have started making my own jewelry.Soon, my friends, colleagues, and strangers start asking me whereI purchased my jewelry. As a result,I decided to start my own line.
Nature is my greatest inspiration.I always amazed by abundance of shapes, textures, and colors presentedon Earth.
