Designer: Neunique

Edited by Marissa Moshell, Student

Ever since she was a child Sophia Blake, “Neunique” designer, has known she wanted to pursue a creative road of artful expression. After studying in Quebec, Sophia moved to New York City to begin her career. What started out as an instinctive hobby for family and friends soon migrated into a company that Sophia adores. The line of jewelery houses precious stones for a sophisticated look and is crafted with diligence and comfort at the forefront. The three collections include cluster, smoke and berry, and pearl drop. The various collections are created with light weight wire and the perfect touch of ambition. Of the style reflected in her line she says, “My style is organic and classic in one.” Everything is truly “Neunique”.
