Lidya Dilmener was born in Istanbul. Surrounded very early by her father and her uncle’s passion for jewelry creation and strong character for value creation in their jewelry atelier founded in 1976. She developed an unconditional love for creating new forms and concepts through the art disciplines. Places she had been in her personal life, architectures, arts, movies, music, and stories of others, understanding the nature and cultures inspired her. She was always interested in what moves people and why do they create the things they did. She is always in search of deeper meaning on life’s matters and how to reflect it through art of jewellery making. This is the exact vision of her jewelry creation process. As Joan Sonnabend well said it, ‘’It wasn’t about diamonds, it was about aesthetics.’’ Following her father’s footsteps, Lidya Dilmener chose a path in the design area in her academic life. She graduated from Istituto Europeo di Design in Milano with the bachelors degree on Jewellery Design. After the university she came back to Istanbul- to her roots to create a niche jewelry brand. As the designer of the brand, she is highly inspired by architecture & nature.
