Always drawn to the sea as a place to gather strength and inspiration, jewelry offered a creative way for me to wear the shells that I collected and carried with me everywhere. My jewelry quickly caught the eye of legendary Bergdorf stylist Betty Halbreich, and a new chapter in my life began–CCWW Designs by Christina Puchi was born.
Today, I design my fine jewelry line from my studio, steps from the beach in Florida where I collect the very shells I design with. My pieces are created using a variety of materials including gold, carved wood, carved stone, precious and semi precious gemstones and of course, shells. In the same way that I originally reimagined the possibilities of a shell, my work takes iconic forms that we all feel a connection to, and then reinvents them as something truly special.
CCWW Designs is a female-led brand that is hand-crafted in the United States by talented artisans. The fine jewelry collection can be found at exceptional retailers as well as at the CCWW Designs site. Although I create each piece from the perspective of an artist, I design my jewelry to be both beautiful and meaningful–wearable works of art that I hope will also bring you joy.
