Brynja Sverrisdottir, an Icelander whose surname literally means "daughter of Sverris" (it's an Icelandic tradition for fathers to give their first names to their children as last names; if she has a brother, his surname would be Sverrisson), is a top model from the 1980s and 1990s, and she was a muse for the designer Valentino. One of her Valentino photos is shown below.
She also took the time to model for Escada . . .
. . . and Yves Saint Laurent.
These days, Brynja Sverrisdottir - sometimes known as Brynja Sverris - has her own jewelry business, "Embracing Faith." She designs rings bearing twenty different religious signs that represent the world's different belief systems, "bound together with a peace sign and a precious pin." She also designs necklaces with animal pendants in a series she calls "Embracing Nature." Learn more about Brynja Sverrisdottir's jewelry work by going to either her Web site or her Facebook page.
