6 Modern Jewelry Designers You Need to Check Out

A few local designers and shops to check out when you’re looking for cooler, edgier jewelry.

1. Roula Dfouni


While the materials this artist uses in her collections are conventional and accessible, the end result is anything but. Her work mainly consists of geometric shapes and lines, and the earthy and unfinished feel of the stones used give the pieces grunge vibes.

2. Cynthia Raffoul

Simple yet eccentric is how to best describe Raffoul’s collection. She aims to create character for her designs, to evoke memory, emotion, and a reflection of who the wearer is when her pieces are sold. It is no surprise that a great deal of attention is paid to all the silver and gold details.

3. Mukhi Sisters


Maya, Meena, and Zeenat Mukhi all decided to fall into the family business, and we’re glad they did. The sisters expertly craft and create jewelry for women that acts more like a story for each individual. Their collections are head-turners as the sisters wanted to reflect their own style and every day life onto the pieces so that they cater to every taste. They invite you to “stay true to yourself” with their collections.

4. Sylvie Saliba

Sylvie Saliba’s jewelry reflects a distinctive and peculiar flair, yet simultaneously aims to incorporate individualism in every piece made. Unconventionality, modernness, and striking colors are very visible in her work.
