Art has always been part of my life—something I’ve experienced, created, and found meaning in, through both its beauty and its heartbreak.

Growing up in Lebanon, the sea was my quiet companion. Its ebb and flow reflected life’s contrasts—resilience and fragility, chaos and calm. It taught me that even in destruction, there is renewal, and in depth, there is mystery.

My journey has followed a similar rhythm. I left my homeland and loved ones to start anew, embracing incredible opportunities and navigating challenges that shaped who I am today. Through it all, I found comfort and purpose in storytelling—turning raw emotions into meaningful designs.

In 2018, I discovered jewellery design at the École de Joaillerie de Montréal, a turning point that set me on a new creative path. A gemology course at the École de Gemmologie de Montréal soon followed, deepening my passion and sharpening my craft. Since then, I’ve worked closely with expert jewellers to bring my visions to life, designing each piece with intention and care.

Every creation tells a story—of resilience, beauty, and purpose. My hope is that you find a piece that speaks to you, one that carries the connection and meaning you’re seeking, just as it does for me. Abir
