"I derive my design inspiration in a wide variety of artistic expressions, from African art to contemporary sculptures. My jewelry is an eclectic mix of textures, techniques and cultural references that come together to create a collection of special interest". ~ Alishan

Alishan Halebian was born and educated in Armenia and after moving to United States in 1970, he continued his studies in art and design at a local college, while working at the Los Angeles jewelry district. He taught himself the craft of goldsmith, which in turn provided him the freedom to design in jewelry. With a background in drawing, sculpture, and furniture design, Alishan prefers to work with three dimensional forms; he approaches his jewelry as a miniature sculpture that is wearable. His talent and passion for designing jewelry is highly recognized among fellow American and International colleagues, and his creations have been exhibited in museums and galleries throughout the nation. Alishan continues to express his artistic talent in his oil and water color paintings, which inspire his jewelry designs.

He is a recipient of numerous International and American Jewelry Design Competition awards and has earned a membership in the highly respected American Jewelry Design Council. Alishan's contemporary designs, merged with classical art elements bring exquisite style to his jewelry collection which can be found in the finest retail jewelry stores in America. His discerning clientele are attracted to his designs for their notably individual characteristics, and for uncompromising high quality of craftsmanship.
