A Gem of A Broderick
Our Fashion Saturday team attended the official opening of Kristina Broderick’s Jewellery boutique located at 24 East King’s House Road. The Fashion Institute of Technology-trained Jamaican jewellery designer, who worked with popular American jeweller Alex Sepkus ahead of her return to Jamaica three years ago, had many raving about her beautiful creations. Today we share a few of those fab finds.
