Today I would like you to meet Selim Mouzannar. I first tried on his jewellery creations inspired by Art Deco and Ottoman architecture during private MATCHESFASHION dinner in London. I love the simplicity of his design and rose-cut diamonds to create a warm glow. Selim collections reflect his passion for the ocean, stars and open air. His star shaped pendant became iconic and in my wishlist.
You launched your jewellery workshop in 1993 in Beirut. How did your brand start?
How do your jewels reflect your background as both your father and grandfather were also jewellers?
You studied mineralogy and graduated from Paris’s Institut National de Gemmologie. How important is to understand and to play with gemstone colours to create jewels?
What are your signature design elements? Are there any unique and special techniques used during the process like enamel and antique Mediterranean crafts?
Can you speak more about your iconic pieces, the 7-point star of the collection Istanbul? How are your jewels created?
