Lebanese craftsmanship and talent are well-known around the world, especially with Lebanon being home to prominent fashion, shoes, and jewelry designers.
Noor Fares is the creative “hands” behind her namesake jewelry brand she launched in 2009, using an earned talent and mesmerizing creativity to make unique items.
The Lebanese designer, who graduated from Central St Martins in London, is known for her colorful and modern artifacts, merging ancient symbolism and contemporary styles.
Known as the “seasoned cultural nomad,” Noor draws from her travel adventures to create her designs, including splendid talismans, as noted in her use of Hindu mandalas symbolism and Middle Eastern architecture.
She also incorporates sustainability and eco-consciousness into her designs. She uses gold from old refineries, precious stones crafted by hand, and natural inclusions of beautiful crystals which embrace purity and the power of nature.
Noor was the awardee of several design awards, namely, the Positive Luxury Awards in 2017 and 2018, and the COUTURE Design Awards in 2019.
Noor is also a philanthropist, supporting various charities. Proud of her roots, she reflects on Lebanese culture through her splendid designs.
Her collections were also featured across the world, with the likes of Net-a-Porter, Bergdorf Goodman, Matches Fashion, and more.
