Nafrotiti

The story behind Nafrotiti:
“I have taken the inspiration for this piece from the ancient Egyptian princess Nefertiti whose limestone sculpture is one of the most popular and admired attractions of Berlin’s Egyptian Museum. Even today, she is regarded as one of the most recognizable faces of ancient Africa.For me, she is the embodiment ofexceptional beauty.

The word Nefertiti means:
the beautiful woman has come. My goal was to re-create this antique, iconic image and transfer it into today’s world. Consequently, I added a slightly futuristic and brilliant feel to it. I came up with the idea of decorating a crown with futuristic appealing elements. I am convinced that a crystal encrusted crown appears to be noble while it perfectly suits the princess.”
