Urart

Urart, founded in 1972 , is a workshop complex of design and crafts dedicated to the cause of perpetuating the rich traditions of our past in ornamental metal work and other crafts. 

Urart believes that to achieve a succesful design is accomplished by true research and a concrete understanding of the past.  We are excited to launch Urart Concept, a modern twist on our historic past here in Switzerland.

Meet the Founder

Exceptional products have always drawn my attention; it's an interest that I developed in my younger years. Within Urart, incorporating my experiences of different cultures, aesthetic background and observations in my designs is a passion for me as well as a way of life. I received my bachelor’s degree in economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadephia and a master’s degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science - and that experience has helped me bring Urart to life. 

I like to reflect on every item that stimulates my imagination when it comes to my artistic process. At Urart, we prefer to create timeless pieces without attachment to fashion or seasonal trends. The magnificient designs produced by our highly qualified Urart artisans are sophisticated yet simple, something appreciated by young people today.
