Margot McKinney is a fourth generation jeweller who has built a global fine jewellery empire. Having hit rock bottom in her early forties, Margot made a fine comeback by backing her own belief that if she liked a piece of jewellery, even if it was shamelessly bold, others would surely follow. And follow they did.
She's now the second biggest supplier of jewellery to Neiman Marcus, the biggest luxury department store chain in the US. Recognising both her talent and success as a local girl made good, she has just closed a blockbuster retrospective of the pieces that made her career staged here at the Museum of Brisbane. Not surprisingly, it was a sellout from the day it opened. If there's one thing I've learned about Margot, it's that she's bold in everything she does.
Listen now to Margot on Unpaused.
