THE STORY BEHIND THE PRODUCT
Artisan Organization: Tehmine Gevorgyan
Country: Armenia
"I am Tehmine Gevorgyan, born in 1986, in Tatev village, Syunik region, Armenia. Later, my family moved to Abovyan, where I studied and graduated from secondary school. Alongside my education, I was also a member of the 'Hatis' Armenian folk dance group, which deepened my connection to our rich cultural heritage.
"After graduation, I got married and became a mother to two wonderful children, Tatev in 2009 and Inessa in 2012. Juggling motherhood and a desire to create, I started making beautiful hats, scarves, and gloves for my daughters. The positive response from friends and acquaintances encouraged me to turn my passion into a business.
"With the support of my husband, I began collaborating with children's stores, gradually expanding my creative repertoire. I taught myself the art of macramé, adding intricate jewelry to my creations, which garnered attention and admiration.
"In 2020, challenges arose with the COVID-19 pandemic and the Artsakh war, leading me to temporarily pause my creative work to focus on my family's well-being. Then, in 2021, my third child, Varuzhan, was born, and with newfound motivation and my husband's unwavering support, I rekindled my creative endeavors.
"Jewelry making has become an integral part of my creative expression, allowing me to combine aesthetics with the skills I've acquired. I draw inspiration from Armenia's rich heritage, incorporating patterns and motifs that pay homage to my birthplace. Each piece of jewelry I create carries a piece of my soul, and I hope to share the beauty, heritage, and wonder of Armenia with those who wear them.
"As I look ahead, my journey of self-discovery and creative fulfillment continues, one piece at a time. My story is a testament to determination, and I'm excited to see where the next chapter leads.""
