The Istanbul Collection



I have always been fascinated by the designs on persian rugs. The interlocking vines and leaves are so beautiful and delicate. I wanted to create jewelry to celebrate this timeless design.

The pomegranate is a powerful symbol for many cultures.  The Armenians use it to symbolize fertility, abundance and marriage.

Hatayi is a style of motif mainly from the 15th century. They usually represent flowers or plant like design.

A special thanks to Erica Lopez and Natasha Poetre for their awesome photographs!
