Why: Nancy takes time-honored techniques of enameling, chain-making and granulation (those squintingly tiny gold balls perfectly lined up into squintingly tiny patterns) and pulls them forward into contemporary designs with a strong emphasis on bold juicy gems. Her enamels feature unique textures under layers of transparent color, giving each piece a gentle floating feel. Lush and lovely collections, classics at any time!
