WHO'S BEA?
Born in Milan in 1990, she is an Italian jewellery designer. Bea Bongiasca’s inspiration stems from her deep passion for pop culture, contemporary art and design, conflated with her love for everything colourful.
COLOURFUL
The classic gold of her jewellery is often joyfully submerged with bright enamel colours that are not commonplace in fine jewellery. The unexpected evolution lends her jewellery kinetic movement and a bold look. Bea’s focus is on jewellery as an art form, a concept that is pivotal to her design process.
THE VISION
Each piece – at once playful and intricate – functions as a miniature fantasy world for the wearers to immerse themselves in and evade reality, even if just for a minute! In 2013, Bea graduated with honours in Jewellery Design BA at Central Saint Martins in London. It was that same year that she founded her own brand and studio in Milan.
