Suzanne Renee Werson was born and raised in New York City. While studying at Manhattan's Fashion Institute of Technology, Suzanne was offered a modeling contract from Ford Models and began a career in front of the camera. This exposure refined her eye for quality and detail, eventually leading her to work for the world renowned fashion designer Ralph Lauren. Shortly after Suzanne became a designer herself developing and producing her own couture line of handbags sold at prestigious companies that included Vera Wang and Bergdorf Goodman.
 
Although Suzanne's love for design was fueled by the excitement of New York, it was the passion in her heart  that brought her to Florence, Italy and eventually to Bologna where she now raises her family. Traveling between Italy and the United States, Suzanne designed as well as consulted for several Italian fashion houses. After years of experience, Suzanne has focused her attention on developing her own line of fine and costume jewelry with an exclusive group of talented artisans from Arezzo. She herself selects all the raw components that create her collection and reflect her own personal style, combining international trends with key elements essential to today's modern lifestyle.
