MOJEH meets up with talented gemologist and fine jewellery designer Selim Mouzannar at The Lounge, The Dubai Mall, to learn more about the man behind the eponymous label’s stunning collections. Rings and pendants of blue tanzanite, green tsavorite and red rhodolite are set within half-moon crescents, setting a scene that's bursting with kaleidoscopic colours and architectural structures.
