Vanina is a Lebanese Brand.
Two girls created it: Joanna Hayek & Tatiana Fayad, and they're both Lebanese Student in Beirut.
In 2006, a new war comes in to Lebanon. Everyone is staying home. Everyone is afraid of the bombs. There's nothing to do.
These girls take this opportunity to create a mini line of jewelry that will be sold. The benefits will be taken as a charity auction organized for children suffering from heart problems.
This mini collection had a great success very quickly. There were a lot of commands. This first collection won a big hit! They had this brilliant idea to recycle old Lebanese coins into a colorful collection.
Since than, our two students hunt around old souks, flea, or even sometimes in antique shops. The Vanina's collection has it's unique identity.
They recycle, rebuilt and rehash old jewelry with always a good sense of humor and with many small messages about life.
So this is the story of Tatiana and Joanne... A story always fun, retro, romantic and poetics!
