Sydney Evan, the highly acclaimed fine jewelry collection, was founded by Rosanne Karmes in Los Angeles in 2001, with one pave diamond horseshoe necklace. True to her personal philosophy and values, Karmes dedicated Sydney Evan to her family and named the collection after her two children Sydney and Evan, as well as her father SY. Eighteen years later, the line has grown from a handful of styles to becoming one of the most coveted fine-meets-fashion jewelry collections worldwide.
Always on the forefront of the next big trend, Karmes’ creativity infuses her love of travel, the arts and culture with her California-chic design aesthetic to ensure a constantly evolving and desirable collection. Made with 14 karat gold and a luxurious mix of precious and semi-precious stones, this collection is meticulously crafted with a classic yet whimsical sensibility.
The success of the Sydney Evan brand can be attributed to Karmes’ ability to unite her deepest source of inspiration, reflecting timeless concepts of spirituality, sentiment, and personal expression. Her pieces celebrate the uniqueness of our lives, with strong roots in family, protection, love, luck and good fortune.
Karmes pioneered the often-replicated fine beaded bracelet by updating personal and spiritual charm trends, thus modernizing the fine jewelry industry with the debut of these chic layering pieces in 2005.
Launched in 2008, her iconic script ‘love’ collection also inspired a movement, making an indelible mark on the jewelry industry.
Sydney Evan routinely adorns the most fabulous women in the world of celebrity, including Miley Cyrus, P!NK, Emma Roberts, Eva Chen, Nina Agdal, Rihanna, Kate Bosworth, Jennifer Lawrence, Rocky Barnes, Jennifer Hudson, Gabrielle Union, Roselyn Sanchez, Kim Kardashian, Sofia Vergara and Emma Stone.
