Rosanne Pugliese's sartorial journey began within the high-octane world of fashion, a chapter marked by a stint at Calvin Klein, where she developed a keen eye for luxurious materials and embraced the minimalistic ethos of modern design. These formative experiences seamlessly translated into her current passion: crafting exquisite jewelry in her Brooklyn atelier.

At the workbench in her Brooklyn studio, Pugliese employs a light touch to find the perfect balance of lightness and fluidity in her pieces, as seen in bold prong-set tourmaline pendants suspended from delicate handmade chains and a cushion-cut champagne diamond juxtaposed against the soft lines of its curvilinear setting.
A commitment to responsibly sourced metals has been integral to Pugliese’s practice from the outset, dating back to her acquisition of a rolling mill 25 years ago. This equipment allows her and her team to repurpose gold scraps into pristine wires and sheets, embodying her dedication to sustainability.
