Working with the PARSA brand as a luxury goods company and its experienced artists was a unique experience for me as a jewelry designer. Designing and conceptualizing, and converting a detailed plan for 3D printing, knowing the materials and rules of being in a goldsmith workshop, was a precious experience for me. A space where colleagues sincerely sought to transfer their years of experience to each other. For these reasons until today, my cooperation with them has continued from a distance.

My Agency
creator and designer of MAHOKHORSHID HEWELRY BRAND
I have started my handmade jewelry Brand, from 2012, which is called MAHOKHORSHID.
My jewelry are based on the wearable sculptures idea. I am trying to keep my works, beyond mere ornamental objects, be structures that are more same as the body, which history and time are tangible in them.

Narian Fashion
designer and jewelry production line creator
I am cooperating with Narian brand (women’s clothing) as a designer and jewelry production line creator. You should know that in Iran, the production process, from technological and economic point of view, is a difficult and breathtaking process; And of course, the presentation also faces with difficult obstacles. We can not have a public show of women’s clothes and jewelry in Iran. From designers and manufacturers to models and sales centers, everyone is in a state of absolute job insecurity, and this makes it very frustrating.
