When this young New Yorker first started out, he was selling sculptures in the lobby of his high school and making shoes under the mentorship of a Cuban sandal designer. Throughout his life, whether he was working with metal, leather, or precious gems, David Yurman has remained a creator and visionary, making designs that would later shape the jewelry industry into what it is today.
David Yurman is both a person and a brand. In the fall of , they each posted a personal ad on a bookstore bulletin board in San Francisco, and the rest was history.
The pair quickly fell in love and began creating art together. At the time, she was a painter, and he was a sculptor. When they moved in together, they began making jewelry inspired by one another.
In the early days of their jewelry business, both David and Sybil sold sculptures and paintings to fund the creation of new pieces. Jewelry has always been the medium of art that they enjoy creating together most.
On their wedding day in , they had a meeting with a man to whom they planned to sell their newly created jewelry business as a wedding gift to themselves. Today, David and Sybil remain at the helm of their renowned brand, boasting boutique locations and jewelry production worldwide, including their brand new flagship location on 57th Street in New York City.
As Sybil walked in, the gallery owner was captivated by the bronze necklace that she was wearing and begged Sybil to sell hers right off her neck. While Sybil declined, telling the gallery owner that it was too special to sell, she begged David to make another for its new admirer. David reluctantly agreed to make the gallery owner a similar necklace, and by the time they got home that night, they had sold four of them.
As David and Sybil began to build their brand, they were enamored by the idea of making fine jewelry more accessible. At the time, diamonds and other precious gemstones were only being set in precious metals, making them more expensive and less attainable for young artists like themselves and their peers. They saw their jewelry as wearable art meant to be enjoyed every day rather than a symbol of wealth or status. To accomplish their goal of bringing fine jewelry to the masses, David Yurman began setting his pieces in sterling silver in order to make them less expensive and more durable.
This completely changed the jewelry industry as other jewelers followed suit and more consumers were able to afford luxuries that they otherwise could not have. David also attributes some of the success to the fact that he is not, and never wanted to be, a jeweler. Men can envision buying David Yurman pieces for their wives, girlfriends, moms, and daughters because they can relate to its un-fussy nature.
The intertwining of masculine style from David and feminine from Sybil is what makes the jewelry so special and appealing to such a broad audience.
As artists, David and Sybil concerned themselves not only with the product but with every visual aspect of the brand. Bearing his name, David wanted the Yurman brand to be an accurate representation of him and his wife and the life that they built together. He and Sybil continue to curate every aspect of their brand from the style of photography, to the magazine ads, and beyond. It was the precursor to the Cable bracelet. That included a mix of silver and gold jewelry and stackable, easy-to-wear pieces.
There are more than 2, Cable iterations: For 40 years, the couple, along with their son Evan, have explored and experimented with new ways to express the Cable design through different metals, gemstones, and variations in scale.
