A ring, so that I could pass it to my future daughter if I ever have one. 
My grandmother gave me a ring for my birthday that belonged to my great great grandmother. I love the idea that jewelry travels in time through generations.

What are you currently inspired by?

I am currently inspired by people on the streets. I love to sit at a terrace of coffee, watch people, and imagine what their lives are. 
I am mostly inspired by the people that I love like my family and my friends.
