The atelier

Made by hand in Yerevan

Every Aurelliani piece is shaped, filed and polished at the bench in our small atelier in Yerevan. Stones are set by hand, the silver is hallmarked 925, and each piece is checked twice before it goes into its gift box.

Some carry Armenian signs, the vine, the cross, the letters of our alphabet. Others are simply clean lines, made to be worn every day.
