                      Napier "Spindrift" necklace

                      Napier "Spindrift" necklace

                      Designer Alert
                      There has been a HUGE movement to attribute designers with specific Napier pieces, and this leads folks to spread incorrect information. The Napier “Spindrift” necklace was designed by Eugene Bertolli and not Francis Fujio. It’s important to remember when studying Napier that multiple designers would work on a collection. UNLESS you have verified directly with the designer, have renderings, design patents, or some other documentation, please please do not “decide” so and so designed a specific piece. The “Spindrift” is a perfect example. There is another version from this collection and at this point, the designer remains unknown.
