Artisia 18K Gold Necklace w. Sapphires

Nilüfer Kizilkaya's passion for jewelry began in childhood, sparked by her mother's jewelry collection and deepened during visits to Istanbul's Grand Bazaar — a place where the beauty and abundance of stones and craftsmanship made a lasting impression. After studying Economics in Amsterdam, she pursued formal training in design and gemology, combining a multicultural upbringing across Istanbul and Amsterdam with a London base that gave her both creative freedom and access to the global jewelry market. That blend of cultural influences, the richness of the Grand Bazaar, the clean design sensibility of the Netherlands, the international perspective of London,  shapes every collection she creates. For Nilüfer, jewelry has roots in the earth and in nature, which is precisely why responsible sourcing is non-negotiable.
