[Nina Charles], a Paris-based florist originally from New Caledonia, discovered her passion for flowers through a childhood surrounded by nature and the influence of her florist great-grandmother. Her journey began in earnest in 2017 while working with renowned florist Saskia Havekes in Australia, an experience that transformed her view of floristry. After completing business school in Montreal, Nina started her floral career in Paris in late 2023. Inspired by nature, seasonal markets, and the Japanese art of Ikebana, she combines observation and creativity to craft arrangements that reflect the beauty of each season.
