Designer Bio: Andre Ribeiro


"Light loves to play in the dark."
-Andre








If you're ever in Schomberg, Germany, keep your eyes open for French-born jewelry designer Andre Ribeiro.  Living and working on the edge of the Black Forest, Andre juxtaposes light and dark by setting fine diamonds in industrial rubber.

A conceptual artist, Andre is constantly exploring contrast.  By setting lustrous and valuable gems in matte black rubber, Andre joins the virtually eternal with the comparatively short-lived.

Wear your Andre with jeans and a tee-shirt or a little black dress.  With earrings, rings and necklaces priced at $300-$2500 you simply can't go wrong.
