Marianne
Jewellery Consultant and Trainee Gemmologist
The newest member to the Holts Gems Team, Marianne’s start in jewellery industry was not the most conventional, but certainly inevitable. Having made jewellery in her spare time since she was 12, it was no surprise she made the leap into fine jewellery.
Whilst at university studying Biomedical Sciences, Marianne often visited Natural History Museum and the V&A, where she admired the jewellery and mineral collections.
After completing her Masters degree, she worked for a time in immunology research, but it was not long before her passion for art and jewellery brought her to Hatton Garden.
Growing up between Miami and London with a large Latin American family, Marianne is a natural people person. Today she uses her love of jewellery for creating beautiful pieces, and her gemstone knowledge to assist clients with bringing their ideas to life.
Marianne is currently pursuing her Graduate Gemmology Diploma from GIA as well as undertaking a course in jewellery illustration with the Karpov sisters.
