LA Digital

Los Angeles-based, old-world manufacturing house Sylva & Cie radiates a timeless quality that surpasses trends and seasons and captures the essence of the unique. With more than 20 years of experience crafting and manufacturing distinct pieces, design powerhouse Sylva Yepremian celebrates the diversity of her clientele and is dedicated to creating hand-crafted fine jewelry that is distinctive and fashionable.


Bridging art and fashion, Sylva’s designs tell a story. Reclaimed stones arranged with an impressionistic eye and a guardian’s care are placed one by one into a new context, combining history with the present. Long-forgotten jewels are released back into the world, once again attending dinner parties and dancing after midnight.

By designing pieces of jewelry as works of art, Sylva allows her jewelry and the client to connect on a personal level. Women of style have chosen to incorporate her jewels as a staple in their everyday wardrobe, as well as when the spotlights shine on their biggest nights of the year.

Each and every piece designed by Sylva is a limited edition and unique from others. Natural elements are hand-selected from around the world and thoughtfully crafted into bold arrangements of stones, making each piece as unique as the woman who wears them.
