David Yurman Jewelry - Finding a Great Deal

Fashion designer and raconteur David Yurman has been producing fine works of art and jewelry for nearly three decades. Yurman founded his business is 1979 as a boutique, and he has since grown the enterprise (thanks in part to the assistance and guidance of his wife Sybil) into an international sensation. Among his most famous creations are 18 carat gold laden jewels, “Silver Ice,” and timepieces for men and women. Yet perhaps his most famous creation is his Cable Collection.

Yurman is notoriously possessive of his jewelry ideas. Indeed, he talks openly about fighting off copyright infringement lawsuits and winning big in court. He supplies jewelry to the likes of Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s, and he has worked with A-list models such as Naomi Campbell. Towards the end of the 20th century, Yurman began investing in retail stores devoted exclusively to his jewelry.

His box chain necklaces, bangle bracelets, and sterling silver twisted cable lines have all won major praise from industry reviewers, independent fashion designers, and consumers alike. Today, American cities boast dozens of David Yurman boutiques, and traders online sell thousands of pieces of vintage Yurman jewelry and fashion motifs every year.

If you are a David Yurman jewelry collector, always authenticate potential accessory purchases. The pieces come with certificates of authenticity, and you can also work with a jeweler to get a second opinion for truly expensive components, like multi-carat diamonds and other rare gemstones.
