Das, by Sevag Dilsizian

It seemed at first that jewellery design would be a creative outlet for Sevag Dilsizian, a way for him to hammer out his emotions in precious metal. Three years ago, in Lebanon, after 24 years of designing jewelry for international labels, Dilsizian made the decision to give up designing under someone else’s vision and to finally put his signature on a collection of rings. It would be three weeks spent reflecting in the studio – there would be no sketches, no predetermined concepts – before his first ring would be finished. It was titled Cage.
