Our next featured designer from my visit to NY NOW is Alma Sophia Jewellery. A London-based designer with a knack for sculptural designs and modern flare. Her work caught my attention because of the details – tiny cubes perfectly clustered into an array to form a design, with gemstones added in for some subtle sparkle. I also really loved her pearl pieces – I don’t often see Keshi pearls and I love how organic their shapes are.
