Beginning in 1868 along the storied Silk Route, the Boghossian family embarked on a journey that would take them across continents, collecting not just gemstones but also cultural influences that would shape their unique approach to jewelry design.
Under the guidance of the fifth and sixth generations, Boghossian has transformed into a prestigious name in the world of high jewelry. Their pieces are not merely accessories; they are reflections of nature's most exquisite treasures, crafted with an innate understanding of gemology that has been passed down through the years.
