Stacking and layering are the leading jewelry trends today. And, VAHAN jewelry always has the answer to “what should I wear today” when it comes to accessorizing with jewelry.

Unlike many jewelry firms, Vahan isn't a middleman or broker; they don't simply purchase some jewelry from overseas and put their name on it.  Vahan manufactures its jewelry pieces itself, and its jewelry is made using techniques developed from a patented process. You'll find plenty of lovely rings, earrings, and necklaces in the Vahan collection, and they're very popular, but Vahan's bracelets are in a class by themselves, and they are truly the company's hallmark pieces. You've seen them on the arms of celebrities, and page after page of fashion magazine layouts. Once you've seen a bracelet by Vahan, you'll never forget it!

The Company

The Vahan jewelry company is one of the best-known and most respected brands in the industry. And, although it was officially founded in 1968, Vahan has a long and storied history going way back to the late 1800’s, and half the world away,  to the City of Lights - Paris, France.  That’s when and a man named Manasse Der Calousdian founded a jewelry company that focused on providing luxury jewelry pieces of the highest quality for people of means. 

The company prospered, and in the 1930’s, Manasse handed the business over to his son, Arsene Der Calousdian, who continued its tradition of excellence, maintaining and expanding the company’s reputation as one of Europe’s finest jewelry manufacturers.  Arsene eventually had his son, Sacha Der Calousdian, and Sacha was fascinated with the world of jewelry manufacturing, and proud of the company that his father and grandfather had built. 

With a brilliant mind, a burning curiosity, and a desire to excel, Sacha Der Calousdian was born to be a jewelry designer, and he studied the field at La Chambre Syndicale de la Bijouterie, one of the finest jewelry design schools in all of Europe.  He then spent some twenty years perfecting his craft, and in 1968 he founded the Alwand Vahan Jewelry company (now known simply as Vahan).  With Sacha’s natural talent, first-class education, and years of experience, the new company was an immediate success.  In addition to being worn by some of the most famous and admired women in the world, Vahan’s jewelry has been sold at some of America’s most exclusive retailers, such as Bloomingdale’s and Neiman Marcus.

Here’s another reason Vahan jewelry is so beautiful - Sacha Der Calousdian says that he designs jewelry as if he were designing a set for a motion picture, and he wants every single woman who wears one of his pieces to look like a movie star.  Look around our website, and explore all of our Vahan pieces, and we think you’ll agree that he achieves this goal.  No matter if you’re looking for earrings, a bracelet, a ring, or a necklace, you’ll find many dazzling pieces to choose from.
