MARIE Z. MUNIER A native of Lebanon where she lives and works, Marie Munier began her artistic career by getting a degree in interior design, then switching to oil painting before finally settling on jewelry design more than 30 years ago. She quickly developed a devoted international following for her one-of-a-kind, gemstone encrusted pieces, finding a wide audience for her reinterpretations of ancient Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Phoenician styles. She was selected as one of 5 out of 800 participants in the Las Vegas "Rising Stars - 2002" and among these 5, she was the one chosen to exhibit her collection in New York. Today she works with her daughter Nathalie who brings her own influence to the work. NATHALIE MUNIER Nathalie Munier, Marie's daughter, was born in Lebanon. She followed in her mother's footsteps and attended The Academy of Fine Arts. She pursued her studies at the Gemological Institure of America in Santa Monica, California, where she graduated as a Jeweler Gemologist. In Paris she received her graduate degree in Jewelry design and the B.J.O. (Bijouterie, Joaillerie, Orfèvrierie). After a year of training at O.J. Perrin, the well known Parisian Jeweler, she joined her mother's business, bringing to it her own creative talents.
