ALIA MOUZANNAR BIG BEIRUT ETCHING

About the Artist:

Alia Mouzannar is first and foremost a storyteller.

Her thirst for life, passion for contemporary art and her studies in architecture allow her to tell stories through her jewelry designs. She does, after all, come from a renowned family of jewelers, established since the 18th century in Beirut.

Her pieces are characterized by an exceptional sense of proportion, harmony, poetry, humor and a free spirit. Emotional value combined with luxury and glamour is inherent to her unique jewelry.

Alia Mouzannar has won several awards and accolades, including HRD 2011 contest in Shanghai for the 'Folding in Love' bracelet which celebrates Alia's modular take on pieces.

More recently, she has shown her talent with the "Cache Ring", a contemporary concept that shows her vision in modernizing jewelry, and typifies her ability to apply a modular take on traditional jewelry.

Her innovative, architectural and versatile approach on jewelry matched the vision of the late Zaha Hadid with whom she collaborated to create a jewelry line for the family house of jewelry A&W Mouzannar, for whom she separately continues to design
