The concept of NUSH jewelry line is based on the idea of using the ancient Armenian ornaments in silver and vitreous enamel jewelry. We’re inspired by the ability to revive the variety of Armenian ornaments and to display them in bright and modern colors using a rich palette of vitreous enamel. The technology of vitreous enamel requires only handmade production. Therefore, each piece is unique and exclusive.
The freedom to create gave not only the opportunity to craft unique pieces of jewelry, but jewelry which concept idea is rooted in ancient history of Armenian ornaments and techniques embedded in the oldest decorative art techniques, the hot (vitreous) enamel technique.
