DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT

BY JENNIFER BRUGH

monica rich kosann STORIES THAT LAST

M onica Rich Kosann is not just a designer; she’s a storyteller, translating whispers of personal journeys into timeless yet modern jewelry. With a background in portrait photography, Monica finds her muse in art and European landscapes, designing jewelry that doesn’t just adorn but empowers and encourages the modern woman. There is a sophisticated subtlety in Monica Rich Kosann’s work. Each

piece is crafted to be timeless — to be as relevant in 50 years as it is today. However, the designs do not shy away from modernity. They are stylish and contemporary, exuding a sense of boldness without overwhelming the aesthetics. This duality ensures that each piece can be versatile, worn in a corporate boardroom or an intimate dinner, yet always adding something unique to a woman’s style.

THROUGH ALL, PERSEVERE No matter the struggle, perseverance always prevails. The Perseverance collection’s delicate enchantments remind us that fish always swim forward despite the obstacles, and we can do the same. These pieces are poignant emblems of progress and enduring spirit. The Perseverance Fish was inspired by Les Craquelins , a type of sculptural French pottery that Monica discovered during her visits to the Paris flea markets. Elegant and simple, the Perseverance collection is far from ordinary — a reminder that we should continue striving towards our goals and that all difficulties are temporary.
