About us

reating stories is at the core of the TVRRINI brand. Our team embellishes designs with texture, colours them with gems, and enlivens them with metal. Our passion lives by blending differing cultures—through art, mythology, and legends.
It was during the early 1990s that the concept for TVRRINI was established in London. Starting off as an individual designer, the first generation trained in time-honoured jewellery-making techniques passed on by jewellers of world-established brands. Extensive travel through the Mediterranean

and South East Asia grew on us, and we brought those influences back into our creations. Thirty years later, we combine the ongoing visions of two generations, uniting traditional methods with contemporary vision into the TVRRINI essence.
Katerina’s wide-ranging passion for English literature and language add to the brand’s poetic storytelling. In 2016, she achieved an award for L’ECOLE Van Cleef and Arpels Legacy Program in Hong Kong, and was invited to visit the Paris headquarters of VCA.
We create TVRRINI jewellery with timehonoured production methods. Our collections begin with choosing a theme that fascinates us. Very often, we write a full story to visualise our characters in parallel with the initial sketches, since giving life to each model is part of the process. With our trained eyes, we pinpoint texture and colour to inform gemstones and metals selection. At TVRRINI, we have mastered our particular sculpting expertise, which gives us the freedom to bring each story into reality.

aterina Spinos, Marketing Manager of TVRRINI, was one of the 3 winners of L’ÉCOLE Van Cleef & Arpels, Hong Kong Legacy Program, under the theme “Jewelery: Myths, Fairytales and Legends”. Katerina was nominated by Cees de Bont, Dean of Hong Kong Polytechnic University, School of Design. She submitted an awardwinning necklace design named “Spirit of Virtue” which impressed the judge panel, Nicolas Bos, President of Van Cleef & Arpels and Marie Vallenet-Delhom, President of L’ÉCOLE Van Cleef & Arpels. The creation of the beautiful piece was sponsored by the company and being a winner,
she joined a sponsored visit to the company headquarters in September 2016. On the inspiration behind the piece, she comments:
“A strong artistic vision was combined with delicate finesse to result in a brilliant artwork that embodies goodness, beauty and grace. I believe that the power of my design lies in its blending of visual stimulation and delicate craftsmanship. In this way it captures the story’s essence in a unique manner, since it previously travelled time through words and pictures alone.”
