She is an amazing designer and artist that has reimagined calligraphy by incorporating Arabic into her rings and necklaces. Nadine illuminates eye-catching letters and meaningful phrases, adorning them with diamonds and fascinating gemstones. We talk about her story, the power and importance of Arab culture.
