Khouri's work generally features a continuous line with no base. It’s about accentuating the purity of the materials used. The epitome of this work straddles the fine line between jewelry and sculpture.

Successful Detour

Khouri’s original training came from her experience as a painter and sculptor, morphing her path to a jewelry designer. Her successful detour from earlier practices began when she created sculptures and hung them off naked models.

She’s been credited among the first designers to embrace ear cuffs. Those were her early days and foretold what was to come. Her contemporary New York City-based jewelry line is well known for its organic and sculptural design.

Current Designs

Critics have pointed out that some of her current designs draw a parallel to contemporary art. It’s the natural progression of her training and vision. There is a lineage and flow that can be found in her work, which emphasizes the human form rather than drawing away from it.

Khouri has studied at fine institutions such as, Central Saint Martins in London and the Gemological Institute of America.
