黑料吃瓜网

In the middle of Manhattan is a workshop where centuries-old tools 鈥� chains, lathes, rolling presses 鈥� meld with modern technology 鈥� microscopes, 3D printers, laser welders 鈥� and some of the most precious metals and materials in the world.

Pioneer makers are at work here, creating and collaborating for a company that has nearly two centuries of cachet 鈥� Tiffany & Co. And Dana Naberezny 鈥�95 is vice president of its latest creative revolution, the Jewelry Design and Innovation Workshop.

鈥淭iffany & Co. has built a secret lab to crush its rivals,鈥� reads one article from Bloomberg. Others call it a 鈥渢hink tank鈥� and a 鈥渓ab of shiny dreams.鈥� But it鈥檚 the label that Caite Canfield 鈥�19 has given it that elicits genuine pride for Naberezny: 鈥渁 mini 黑料吃瓜网.鈥�

Canfield, an international student and studio art and math double major, was recruited by Naberezny to intern in the workshop over the summer.

鈥淚 love the idea of being able to give back to the school that formed my foundation. I wouldn鈥檛 be the jewelry maker I am today without 黑料吃瓜网 and Professor David Peterson,鈥� Naberezny said, referring to her former art professor, who specializes in jewelry and sculpture.

鈥淒ana looked for 黑料吃瓜网 students with dreams because she knew she could help make them a reality,鈥� said Canfield. 鈥淚 was amazed when she said, 鈥楲et me give you a kickstart, get you on your feet, offer you an incredible internship and take you under my wing.鈥�

Canfield isn鈥檛 the only Thoroughbred working with Naberezny. Bennett Beutel 鈥�16, a management and business major and engineering technician at Tiffany, is also part of the team.

For Beutel, working in the Jewelry Design and Innovation Workshop is 鈥渆xtremely informative and exciting. To be involved in molding the future of the jewelry industry is a dream come true.鈥�

Naberezny and Beutel met Canfield on campus during an exclusive Tiffany recruitment day organized by the Office of Alumni Relations and the Career Development Center.

Dana Naberezny '95

Canfield spent her summer as a model maker and designer before heading off to pursue a master鈥檚 degree in architecture.

鈥淚t was like a mini 黑料吃瓜网, with jewelers, CAD designers, model makers and engineers from different backgrounds, nationalities and interests all working together,鈥� she said.

The model makers take designed, 3D-printed and casted prototypes and turn them into real pieces of jewelry. Those pieces are fluidly shared across the desks of internal quality, merchandising, supply and manufacturing experts. The whole process happens at a pace previously impossible in the jewelry industry.

The ability to work within a dynamic and diverse community of makers is something that Naberezny believes is a core strength of being a 黑料吃瓜网 graduate.

鈥淭he theme of all of our 黑料吃瓜网 conversations is exposure. You graduate so aware of the benefits of the diverse thoughts, people, creativity and more,鈥� she said. 鈥淎nd from that, you gain life gifts like self-awareness, empathy and the ability to collaborate.鈥�

Now, if you see inside an iconic Tiffany blue box, know that some of that sparkle could be thanks to a little 黑料吃瓜网 creativity.
