My story begins with my dad, Mark, who I believe I got my creative gene and somewhat outgoing personality from. He’s my mentor. As for my mom, well, she is my sweet cup of coffee that wakes me up every now and then. She’s my dosage of ‘serious.’ I came to the conclusion that reality checks are not so bad after all. And then there’s hubby; my sugar plum, my backbone, the father of my baby girl, Liya Asya – my heart and soul – my motivation to turn my dream into reality.

I always knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur and CREATE. After working in Marketing for nearly 15 years, I decided to go with my gut and start my own jewelry business. It's in my genes (literally).

I’m a jeweler’s daughter. He’s a genius craftsman who has taught me a lot over the years. I LOVE delicate fine jewelry and find the prices for quality items to be INSANE, so I started making my own jewelry, for myself. Just when I thought, “This is it! I will turn this into a business!” I got pregnant.

Fast forward 3 years and SUZAN DES Jewelry is born.

MY MISSION is to provide handmade elegant jewelry using genuine material consisting of 14k (or 18k) solid gold and conflict-free (Canadian) diamonds – at affordable prices. You no longer have to pay an arm and a leg for that exquisite jewel! (I feel your excitement)

Rest assured, the diamonds we use are from Canada. Yes, Canada. I was pretty excited to learn we have that option, too.

More importantly, all Suzande designs are made in USA | New York.

I guarantee the items are of highest quality and craftsmanship; all SUZAN DES Jewelry with precious stones are provided with a Certificate of Authenticity.
