Who: Fine body jewelry?artist Maria Tash: pioneer of the modern movement for luxurious, petite diamond body jewelry.

What:?Dazzling earrings, septum and nose jewelry, and body jewelry using fine stones and minerals. Her work is inspired by?Indian and Pakistani designs for which she is perhaps most notable for her intricate and delicate nostril and ear jewelry.

Where: Brown Thomas level 2 this Saturday, September 2nd, through September 10th

Why we love her:?Tash has grown and developed a career spanning more than 21 years and has earned plenty of street cred among the piercing and body art communities. With a rich Armenian-American heritage and a strong thirst for culture and luxury, Maria has innovated the body art world and propelled it into the 21st Century marketplace. Tash’s designs are modern and sophisticated and become a part of the wearers being: she has?created a space in Western culture where personal expression through body art is considered normal and beautiful.

With prices starting from €115, customers will have a one-off chance to?experience styling advice from the brand’s experts and avail of in store piercing services for a very limited time only (walk-ins and pre-booking service will be available).

If the idea sticking a needle in your ear sounds like a nuisance, just look at the long list of celebrities (including Beyonce, Scarlett Johansson, and Gwenyth Paltrow) who’ve endured Maria’s sharp touch, which might entice you.

It’s unclear which pieces from Tash’s dazzling collections will be available, but it is definitely worth taking a visit to see these coveted pieces.
