"Hello, I am Hasmik Abrahamyan from Yerevan, Armenia. Born and raised in this vibrant city, I have always been surrounded by the rich culture and history that flows through every street, building, and tradition of my homeland. Growing up, I was always drawn to art and creativity, and over the years, I found my true passion in making jewelry. What began as a simple hobby quickly became a deep form of expression for me, and eventually, it turned into something more significant—a way to share my art with the world.

"My journey with jewelry started several years ago when I began crafting pieces for my loved ones. It was a special way for me to give them something personal and unique, something that came from the heart. Each piece I made carried a piece of me, whether it was inspired by Armenian culture, nature, or simply the emotions I felt in the moment. The joy I saw in their eyes when they received one of my handmade pieces was priceless. It was through these small, personal gifts that I realized how much happiness and connection a piece of jewelry can bring.

"What was once just a creative outlet soon evolved. Friends and family began encouraging me to take my work further, to share it with more people. As time went on, I started receiving requests from people outside my immediate circle. I made the decision to pursue jewelry making as not only a passion but also as a source of income, allowing me to devote more time and energy to perfecting my craft.

"Creating jewelry is a deeply personal process for me. I draw inspiration from many sources, particularly from the natural beauty of Armenia and the deep cultural heritage we Armenians are so proud of. Our patterns, symbols, and rich traditions are reflected in many of my designs. Each piece I create tells a story, whether it's through a subtle design inspired by Armenian ornaments or bold, statement pieces that capture the spirit of our history and identity. I love experimenting with different materials, from metals to stones, always looking for new ways to bring life to my creations.

"For me, the most rewarding part of jewelry making is knowing that my work can bring joy and meaning to others. Jewelry is more than just an accessory—it carries memories, emotions, and can even become a symbol of personal milestones. When someone wears one of my pieces, they are not just wearing a piece of jewelry; they are carrying a story, a piece of my journey, and a little bit of Armenian culture with them.

"As my workshop grows, I remain committed to crafting each piece with care and passion. I want to continue exploring new techniques, learning more about this beautiful art form, and sharing my work with people from all over the world. My dream is to bring a touch of Armenia’s beauty, history, and artistry into people’s lives, no matter where they are. Thank you for supporting me on this journey—I hope my jewelry can bring as much joy to you as it brings to me in creating it.""
