Of all the neighborhoods in Manhattan, I think Soho has the most cinematographic energy, with charismatic characters. In Soho, the glamour keeps open house, the extravagance is aware that the comfort of its wealth is always in safe keeping, and the time passes by in a bourgeois rhythm. In one of the corner of this neighborhood, I discovered a wonderful jewelry maker, Yvone Christa, a brand with a history - according to expectation - a cosmopolitan story which stole people’s hearts, mine included.

Having Swedish origins, influences from Greek and Venetian antique techniques, an American commercial energy, Yvone Christa’s jewels took my fancy. They are spectacular works of art, either you choose earrings, bracelets, or rings, all of them have fine, incredible filigree details (delicate designs and decorations).

The brand is the creation of two passionate and highly skilled Swedish women who founded Yvone Christa 23 years ago and since then they have been gradually and surely conquering the whole jet-set, world wide. Madonna, Heidi Klum, Paris Hilton, Kate Moss and Princess Victoria of Sweden are fans of Yvone Christa’s creations, and yes, they are worth their customers, as well as their success.
