Cristina Rotondaro (EKA)
Now living in Rome, Cristina’s work shows the influence of all the countries she has grown up in – Kenya, Morocco, Brazil and the Philippines. She worked in business, advertising and marketing for Bulgari before launching her own collection in 2000. She opened her atelier/lab in 2004 and travels between Italy and Brazil where she finds the highly coloured and unusually cut gemstones she uses in her designs.
