Alessandra Canu was born and raised in Luxembourg by a Greek mother and an Italian father.

Drawing was an integral part of her life, from as early as her school years. It was a means of expressing herself, her feelings or thoughts, but it also helped her travel through her dreams as a child.

Later, she decided to study design and interior architecture in Paris, although she always knew that she wanted to design art jewellery. Her grandfather always called her “Alexandrini”, and so she decided to call her company by the same name. With this venture, she has started her journey into the world of jewellery, with utmost respect for its splendour and beauty.

“Alexandrini” is also the name of her latest line of handcrafted jewellery made from sterling silver and semi-precious stones, inspired by her love and appreciation for the environment and nature. Her jewellery tell stories inspired mainly by her Mediterranean nature, which is part of who she is.

She loves spending time in her studio and nothing compares to the joy she feels when she sees a woman wearing something she has shaped into a final piece of jewellery.

Paper is the foundation for her designs. In the second stage, through metal processing by hand, these designs “come to life” and each of them turns into a one-of-a-kind creation, part of a unique collection which tells a different story. Her purpose is to see women enjoying her jewellery as integral pieces of their daily life.
