Designer Profile

About Me

Dina Varano's work has great sculptural integrity. Succeeding as a self-contained object of art, each piece is the full expression of her intuitive process. Her jewelry comes to life in a new way when worn, carefully articulated to create a harmonious balance with the body it adorns. Her artist's hand is deliberate, creating a rhythm of grace and movement.

Dina's jewelry captures the essence and gesture of nature. A graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, Dina spent many years studying in Rome. She continues to be passionate about travel and escapes to summer programs to further her artistic enlightenment and curious spirit.
