Ara Vartanian’s Favorite Things

Ara Vartanian grew up in a family of jewelers in São Paulo, Brazil. He briefly worked as a Wall Street trader before returning to his roots in precious stones. Known for his inverted diamonds, Vartanian’s clients include Anne Hathaway, Swizz Beatz, and Kate Moss. When he’s not in his studio, he’s in the kitchen with a Vermicular cast-iron pot, or out on a Tokyobike
