THE STORY BEHIND THE PRODUCT
Artisan Organization: Arman Badeyan
Country: Armenia
"I am Arman Badeyan, and my life's journey has been a colorful tapestry of artistry and cultural preservation, rooted in the enchanting Dilijan region of Armenia. Over the years, I have explored various artistic routes, including carpet weaving and painting, but it's within the realm of jewelry making that I've discovered my true calling.
"Jewelry isn't just a craft for me; it's a profound connection to my Armenian heritage and a commitment to safeguarding and promoting our vibrant cultural legacy. From the very beginning, my mission has been crystal clear: to cultivate and enrich Armenian culture while simultaneously popularizing the handicraft traditions indigenous to our region.
"My inspiration comes from the historical tapestry of Dilijan and its surroundings. It was during the 1850s that the first excavations unveiled the hidden treasures of our land. These archaeological discoveries weren't mere artifacts; they were a wellspring of inspiration, with motifs and designs, actually I endeavored to blend these timeless motifs with innovative approaches, breathing fresh life into our beloved traditions; we've harnessed the unique qualities of materials like brass, bronze, copper, and silver, each chosen for its ability to convey the essence of our designs.
"As I look back on my journey as an artisan, I am filled with a deep sense of humility and purpose. I am honored to have the opportunity to contribute to the preservation and evolution of Armenian culture through the jewelry. Each piece I create serves as a vessel of our history, a carrier of our heritage, and a glimpse into our future. My fervent hope is that our work resonates with those who cherish the profound connection between art and culture, and that our jewelry serves as a bridge connecting generations, nations, and souls. Through the artistry of jewelry, we transcend boundaries and share the timeless beauty of Armenia with the world." "
