Czarina

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld allowed all of us a glimpse at her life recently when Todd Selby captured her apartment on film. Of particular note is Julia's unique collection of jewelry. The ring shown above is from the Czarina line, created by her pals Gaia Repossi and Eugenie Niarchos. Repossi hails from the House of Repossi, a family with a long history of jewelry making and official jewelers to Monaco's royals. Niarchos also comes from a historically fashionable family, her great-grandmother was Gloria Guinness and Daphne Guinness is her aunt. The two joined forces to create the stunning Czarina line, a filigree collection that is inspired by Russian iconography and produced in four different golds.

Hey, I am checking this site from my Blackberry and it looks kinda funky. Thought you’d want to know. It’s a great post though, didn’t mess that up.
