For Sevan, jewellery design is his identity. Born in Istanbul with an Armenian background, Sevan carried on his father’s legacy and began a full-time apprenticeship with one of the most respected jewellery houses in Istanbul at the age of 10.
Equipped with a fantastic array of skills and dreams of a better life, Sevan emigrated to Canada as a teenager with just $250 in his pocket. In a few short years, he developed a reputation as the most sought-after jeweller in Toronto. For the past 20 years, Design by Sevan has stood as the premier custom diamond engagement ring boutique in Toronto’s Fashion District.
