About the Gia Design Series – An Homage to Earth’s Splendor: Cynthia Renee, drawing on her background as a geologist, weaves the wonders of Earth into wearable art in the Gia series.

Each piece, thoughtfully designed to encapsulate vibrant gems, stands as a testament to life’s inherent beauty. They offer an escape, an opportunity for our imagination to soar, reminding us of our innate connection to the Earth and the nourishment it provides.
