Bodacious Bangles from Vahan
Here's a guy who likes to mix his metals, often combining different colors of gold (white and yellow) as well as gold and silver, which I don't think we see enough of in the jewelry world.

Alwand Vahan's signature bangle bracelets have been around for awhile, but they are still wonderfully classic jewelry pieces.

Also known as "Sacha," this jewelry designer has been around for awhile as has been his company: Sacha was born in France in June 1940. Graduated from the Paris jewelry and design school "rue du Louvre" called "La Chambre Syndicale de la Bijouterie, Joaillerie et Orfevrerie" (the same school his grandfather won his medals eighty two years earlier), he designed a short time for Hermes before beginning his career in the United States.

He opened his own firm, Alwand Vahan Jewelry Ltd. at 604 Fifth Avenue in 1968 after having worked for David Webb and other prestigious firms. By then Sacha had served in the US armed forces during the Cuban missile crises and been member of the Art Students League where he studied anatomylinks with his friend Herve Villecheze, "Tattoo", under the sculptors Nathaniel Kas, Hovannes, and Marshal Glaser.

  • 'I very much enjoy your blog and the fine pieces of jewelry.'

    I work with for Cartier [...] I am familiar with your jewelry blog and I thought you would be interested to know (if you don't already) that Cartier is re-launching their iconic LOVE collection.

    Very interesting!
