Austrian-born Angela Cummings was a protégé of Tiffany & Co., remaining with the legendary New York jewellery house until 1984. Still active today, her work – both past and present – is renowned for its fusion of traditional techniques and experimental design, along with her expertise with 18-karat gold and her penchant for trompe-l’oeil effects and nature-inspired shapes. These Damascene-style hair combs, crafted in 24-karat yellow gold and black iron, evoke the opulent beauty rituals of centuries past.

Mahnaz Ispahani Bartos, a greatly admired New York curator and collector, discovered her love of jewellery as a child through gifts from her Pakistani mother and Iranian grandmother, including Persian turquoise earrings and rings, Meenakari bangles and an Omega watch designed by Andrew Grima. Witness to two revolutions, she set aside this young love for 25+ years of scholarship on matters of global wars and peace. In 2013, however, she returned to her passion, jewellery, turning it into a profession with the launch of Mahnaz Collection, a gallery celebrating global beauty. Her eclectic curation spans renowned and lesser-known names from various eras, all united by exceptional originality, artistry and craftsmanship.
