This year Michael B. was happy to receive the honor of being first runner up at Couture 2011 ‘Best in Bridal’ award ceremony. We’ve taken the liberty of presenting the submitted ring which was showcased for the entire industry and guests to view and vote on for three days. Kisses & Hugs is one of Michael’s five new designs debuted this year to commemorate his 50 years in the jewelry industry. It’s a wonderfully organic design which incorporates three components that fit together to make two bands kissing and hugging the primary mounting in the middle.
It is truly remarkable watching Michael cultivate inspiration from life and then watch him imbue that passion into his work.
