British Vogue - 11.2019

ALICE CICOLINI

Alice Cicolini is a creative

polymath. Author, curator

and jewellery designer, she

reignited her childhood love

of gems during her time as

director of arts and culture

for the British Council in India.

Combine that with her MA

in jewellery design at Central

Saint Martins, exquisite colour

sense and dedication to

preserving ancient crafts from

both East and West, and the

result is contemporary jewellery

with soul. The east London-based

designer’s Totem stacking ring

unites her love of colour with

convertibility, and intricate

pattern with sheer scale.

“The challenges are always

in the details: matching the

pattern, the colours of enamel

and stone, the perfection in

the way the three pieces

slot together,” she says.
