Reena Ahluwalia Wins the North American Tahitian Pearl Trophy
Sensational, provocative and absolutely luxurious - These are the words which come to mind while describing jewellery designer Reena Ahluwalia's award winning necklace for the North American Tahitian Pearl Trophy.

The Cultured Pearl Association of America, which represents Perles de Tahiti in the United States, recently announced the winners of the 2007-2008 "The Song of the Stars" Tahitian Pearl Trophy-North American division.

This prestigious international affair takes place every two years and is an unequalled international artistic competition.

Judging for the event was held at the Terrace Club in New York City.

The jury included Laurie Schechter, Stylists and Co.; Elena Mauer, Bridal Guide; Jean Francois Bibet, Van Cleef and Arpels; Amanda Gizzi, Jewelry Information Center; Kathleen Fritzpatrick, freelance editor; Hedda T. Schupak, JCK and Fran Mastoloni, Frank Mastoloni and Sons.

First place winner and representing North America, "Ethereal Rhapsody" necklace now enters the TPT International Awards phase, to be judged by the international jury in May 2008.

Along with this success, Ahluwalia has also won second place in both bracelet and brooch categories of the North American Tahitian Pearl trophy.
