Designer Profile

Linda de Vetta & Antonia RichmondMother and daughter, Linda de Vetta and Antonia Richmond formed Antonia de Vetta Jewellery in 2002. About to launch their 5th Season they have already built a celebrity client list that includes Angelina Jolie, Kylie Minogue, Janet Jackson, Dame Judi Dench and Madonna.

Linda, with a background in art, has been a film make-up artist for the past thirty years, working with all the major names in the business. Specializing in both fashion make-up and prosthetics, Linda brings an amazing amount of creativity to the union. As a make-up artist she has achieved a high profile working on most of the big production Hollywood films. Her artistic background has bred an incredible understanding of form and colour, which translates across to the jewellery she and Antonia design.

Antonia originally worked in the art world after completing her degree in Art History at the Courtauld Institute. She then worked for leading Fashion photographer Mario Testino. Heavily involved in the worlds of fashion and art, her time here allowed her a unique insight into the images and fashions of femininity. After working closely with Mario for two years she and Linda decided to launch Antonia de Vetta Jewellery.

The combination of these backgrounds means that their influences come from their own diverse experiences of film, fashion and art. This is mixed with a keen identification of their clients needs to be beautiful, sexy and feminine.
