David Yurman jewelry, founded in 1980, is known for its artistic, sculptural designs, particularly the signature cable bracelet. David and Sybil Yurman, artists with backgrounds in sculpture and painting, collaborated to create jewelry that blends artistic expression with fine craftsmanship. The brand gained prominence for its innovative use of materials, including pioneering the use of diamonds in sterling silver, which like other designers
of their era “bridged” the gap between inexpensive “fashion” jewelry and high-end fine jewelry. The David Yurman brand is still a powerhouse today, and the family affair continues with David and Sybil’s son Evan now involved in the creative direction of the company.
