ABOUT US
OUR MISSION
To redefine fine jewelry by creating exclusive designs that celebrate individuality and craftsmanship, all without the traditional retail markups, providing true value directly to our customers.
Fine Jewelry with a Refined Sense of Noblility
Vardui Kara is a fine jewelry collection founded on the principles of exploring new and experimental concepts, while collaborating with the most skillful artisans in Los Angeles to create timeless pieces with collector's appeal. The line incorporates multi processes of design and stone setting to intrigue the women who believe everyday jewelry does not need to be basic.
Jewelry holds a personal meaning to us all and that is why we have set out to create something authentic and modern that helps a woman tell her story. Unique details and a balanced design come together to encourage a refined self-expression.
Why We Are Different
Exclusive Collections
We believe in the rarity of true beauty. That's why we offer limited edition collections and exclusive designs that are not widely available. Our jewelry is meant to feel personal and precious, giving you something truly special that you won't see on everyone else.
Our Commitments
Exceptional Customer Experience:
At the heart of our brand is our commitment to providing an extraordinary customer experience. From your first inquiry to the moment you wear your new piece, we are with you every step of the way. We believe in building lasting relationships with our clients, ensuring every interaction is personal and memorable.
We Have Said Bye To:
Wholesale distribution markups, excess assortment, production markups, import costs, retail markups, and sales commissions.Unlike the traditional jewelry industry, we set out to launch our own model to design, create, source, and sell fine jewelry directly to you. Instead, we focus on thoughtful product assortment, responsible production, quality materials made to last a lifetime, working with local manufacturers, and handling the shipping ourselves.
To put it simply, our jewelry is handcrafted with the same high quality materials and craftsmanship as other luxury jewelry brands without the traditional markups.
Our Jewelers
We spent two full years searching Los Angeles to find the best master jewelers for our various collections. Some of the jewelers we work with are third-generation craftspeople. All of them are committed to excellent and intricate craftsmanship on producing quality pieces. We value each artisan for their unique skills such as soldering, stone setting, or sandblasting. By making each jewelry item to order, we support local and talented artisans while, at the same time refusing the purposeless wastage often seen from mass productions.
Meet our Designer
Growing up in Downtown Los Angeles' Jewelry District as the daughter of a precious metals dealer, Vardui Karaoglanyan was influenced by the creative freedom and expertise around her. After earning a degree in Economics and Finance, she trained under sculptural jewelry designers, developing her own style that blends modern minimalism with bold architectural influences. Her designs are inspired by Renaissance themes and feminine strength, featuring 14 and 18 karat recycled golds, and ethically-sourced diamonds. Each piece is crafted to make a powerful statement, with a balance of elegance and daring edginess, perfect for layering and mixing.
Vardui Kara aims to offer exclusive designs to create a collector's mentality, all without the traditional retail markups, making luxury more accessible.
