We met with Harout R in his New Jersey offices to discuss his approach to design and  chat about upcoming celebrity engagements.

Harout, why did you decide to become a jeweler?

My passion for jewelry design already began in my youth. As a young child, I was always amazed at the reflective beauty of diamonds.

Where does your design inspiration usually comes from?

I have always been inspired by the beauty of God’s natural creations.

We see a lot of floral elements in the line, why?

Bridal jewelry today has become extremely repetitious in its styles and designs. I wanted to bring it back to life by integrating the beauty and intricacy of floral patterns into my bridal creations.

What is the price-point of the Harout R collection?

The price-point of our semi-mount pieces range from $1,000.00 to $8,000.00.

If you had to pick a ring in the collection, which one is your favorite and why?

My favorite engagement ring would be style #547, due to the beauty of its combined elements. The detailed leaf blooming out of the setting is in perfect proportion with the elegantly fluted shank.

There are rumors that Sandra Bullock might get remarried. Which ring in the collection would you pick for her?

The talents and beauty of Sandra Bullock are always continuing to blossom, as a flower. Therefore, I would choose style #192, a perfectfloral solitaire design, refflective to her natural talents.

Thanks Harout for taking the time to chat with us!
