Nadège Renée Cassar

Fortress Builders

Nadège Renée Cassar’s venture as a designer and producer of contemporary jewellery started in 2005, when she set up a small workshop named Nadège.Renée. The underlying concept of her jewellery is uniqueness, and she designs and produces her own lines of exclusive or limited-edition pieces, using gold and sterling silver as the core metals and combining them with various precious or non-precious materials. She has a flair for designing transformable jewellery – pieces that can be altered or adapted to suit different needs, tastes, and styles – and also enjoys creating bespoke jewellery by recycling her clients’ precious metals and stones.
