California: Jewelry
A piece of jewelry that has meaning and purpose can offer more value than opulence. For jewelry designer, scuba diver, stuntwoman, yogi and cancer survivor - Szilvia Gogh, pieces can be beautiful and say something too. This is the philosophy you’ll find within the collections of Gogh Jewelry Design. See My Story ->
I like to design everyday lifestyle products which push boundaries, transform into works of art, and which you are dying to show off.
I try to design pieces that blur the line between modern and classic, so that they can be worn for years without looking dated.
I love the process of handstamping and making beautiful things! The quietness lining up the letters, spacing everything out and praying before I start each piece for the wearer of the necklace centers me to be able to make precise hits of the hammer. It becomes a spur practice that I am so grateful for.
Whether it is a jewelry piece from my own collection or a custom creation, it’s a very heart warming feeling when I can help a customer choose an item for themselves, a gift or a special occasion and receiving emails or dm's afterwards that are filled with joy.
My mantra is: Be Bold. Stand out. Make a Statement. Be YOU! My unique, bohemian-luxe style, my energy, my creativity all help to set me apart from others in the industry.
I create everything myself without outsourcing! I hand fabricate with metal or hand carve designs in wax and cast in studio while most jewelry companies outsource some or all of the process. I love creating, and this is what makes each piece unique.
I pour hours of love into every piece that I create. The reward is seeing people wearing my designs. That truly brings a smile to my face.
I LOVE to interact with my customers; know their story and be a part of their story, connect with them over a piece, and ultimately, follow that piece up to its final destination and create a bond with the person who acquires it. That makes me extremely happy as it allows me to keep on seeing my piece over time, when those customers come to say hi to the markets year after year.
My creations are made with high-quality precious stones, crystals and sterling silver and gold. All of the gemstones and crystals that I use are carefully hand-selected (by me!) and often sourced directly from the mines themselves from all over the world including Mexico, Africa, Madagascar and Brazil. Each one has it's own unique healing properties and I encourage people to use their intuition in finding the piece that speaks to them!
