Later, she returned to Europe, where she studied in Italy and Germany, receiving three diplomas at once: a gemologist, a jeweler and a designer. In the jewelry world, such a combination of directions for one person is very rare.
In 1968 Angela returned to the USA. Already at the age of 23, she received the position of assistant to Donald Claflin himself at Tiffany & Co.

In 1973, she created her first independent collection, and during her 16 years of work for Tiffany, she developed many interesting projects.
Cummings was one of the few Tiffany designers, along with Paloma Picasso, Jean Schlumberger and Elsa Peretti, to have signed pieces.

In 1970, Angela married Bruce Cummings, a former Tiffany gemologist.
And already in 1984, together with her husband, she created her own company, Angela Cummings Inc., and opened a boutique right in front of the Tiffany flagship store on Fifth Avenue.
Her collections have been featured in jewelry stores and department stores around the world.

Cummings’ work is characterized by flowing, often natural forms; sculpture; use of ornamental stone and yellow gold. But this can be said about many designers, but far from all of them – special attention to the texture, tactile beauty of jewelry.
Angela Cummings often experimented with the damaskine technique. She loved non-traditional combinations, for example, with wood.

In 2003, she decided to close her business. The designer moved to Utah to spend more time with her family. Let’s say in Russian: retired.
10 years later, Assael convinced Angela to create an exclusive collection of South Sea and Akoya pearls.

With motifs of scallops, seahorses, coral branches and swirling ocean waves, Angela Cummings’ modern pearl masterpieces for Assael have instantly earned the status of collector’s relics.
