At TEFAF New York 2025, Ana Khouri offered more than just fine jewelry—she presented an experience.
The only American jeweler invited to the fair, Khouri showcased her signature sculptural style with a nature-inspired collection handcrafted in 18K Fairmined gold and her proprietary 18K brown gold alloy.
Each piece echoed the textures of bark, leaves, and branches, blending organic form with modern minimalism. The quiet elegance of her wide gold cuffs and curved torque necklaces felt timeless, yet distinctly contemporary.
Khouri’s presentation space, however, brought an unexpected twist. She transformed parchment paper—her everyday sketching medium—into sculptural backdrops.
Torn edges, waves, and shadows brought depth to the display, lifting each gem into its own light. Even a 30-carat white diamond appeared part of a larger, thoughtful composition.
This merging of raw material, nature, and refined design underscores why Khouri’s work resonates. Her jewelry doesn’t just adorn—it speaks.
