Gem Ceramic By Etienne Perret Hits The United Kingdom

      
It's a very special feeling for an artist when their work gets recognized far away from home. ProfessionalJeweller.com is one of the UK's leading jewelry websites and offers great insight into the complex world of fine jewelry.

Recently the editors of Professional Jeweller discovered the Gem Ceramic collection and decided, despite the giant puddle jump and Etienne's relative lack of exposure in the UK, his designs were well worth the attention of their readers. Well done guys, no one can deny your good taste!

A Sparkling Innovation: Etienne Perret Gem Ceramic on Robb Report

           
Any type of editorial coverage is welcomed by us, but sometimes we hit the jackpot. When you are developing a line of jewelry as spectacular as Etienne's Gem Ceramic collection, I suppose it isn't a big surprise that influential critics will fall in love with your work. Recently Jill Newman, senior style editor of Robb Report, came across Etienne's designs and couldn't help but feature them at RobbReport.com!

As a fine jewelry designer, if you ask yourself what's better than getting free, front page editorial coverage from a top notch luxury publication like Robb Report? The inevitable answer is...well, almost nothing!

That appreciation shined through in Etienne's initial reaction to finding out his Gem Ceramic design had been featured in the nations top luxury publication. 

"I have been contemplating how I can create beautiful jewelry in gem quality ceramic ever since the first ceramic Rado watches came out...It feels great when a vision that has taken over two decades to come full circle finally starts getting the recognition it deserves. Thank you Robb Report for sharing my designs and my passion with the upscale consumer market!"

They got me to thinking about ceramic jewelry, but it was not until about 5 years ago that I actually connected with a partner that helps me manufacture the pieces.”...read the full article by Tricia Spencer at Suite101.com

We were very happy to see the newest editorial coverage of Etienne's increasingly popular Gem Ceramic collection get blasted across the web last week! Many online voices have made it clear they gave Etienne's newest project a big thumbs up, but rarely are we fortunate enough to get such thorough coverage by so talented an author.
