“I knew that this book would be an ode to magnificent jewels, yes, but particularly an ode to magnificent women. A magnificent book about women, for women, by women. We’ve come so far as womankind and still have some way to go. The power us women hold in our heads, our hearts, and our hands is infinite. And when it comes to finding your way, the only opinion that counts, in the end, is your own.”

Tina Leung - Magnifica Book Curator

“For many years I have been traveling with a star sapphire in my bag. This kind of gem features a special optical phenomenon called asterism: needle-like inclusions within the gem crystal reflect light and form a star. My star sapphire is an amulet that protects me by infusing its vibrant energy, it’s my North Star to find peace and a positive creative energy.”

Lucia Silvestri - Bvlgari Jewelry Creative Director

“The drawing in front of me takes shape in my hands, it becomes something real, ready to adorn the wearer with its unique beauty. Such a powerful emotion lights up all my days. I imagine every object that I assemble on me: if I had to wear this, would I like the fact that it’s so sharp, so heavy? Metal is cold, you have to give it a soul.”
