Erica Courtney started out embellishing sunglasses and luxury watches with Swarovski crystals and creating casual costume jewellery but has gone on to become one of the most successful fine jewellery brands in the USA. Inspired by the history and glamour of Hollywood, Courtney sketches every piece and hand-picks every precious stone. Her pieces are a perennial red-carpet favourite, and she counts Madonna, Julia Roberts, Reese Witherspoon and Jessica Alba among her many fans.
