    Suzy Levian Reveals the Story Behind the Secret Diamond

    From a 500-year-old legacy of jewelers, Suzy Levian is the first woman in the family to start her own business.

    The jewelry industry is known for its multi-generational ties, where traditions and legacies are passed down to children and grandchildren. For centuries the trade was male dominated, with this past century being one of glass ceilings being broken. Founding the first woman-owned jewelry business in the family, Suzy Levian is on a mission to empower, encouraging women to love themselves. Each of her pieces incorporates a hidden diamond within the band— the Suzy Levian signature secret diamond.

    Creative powerhouse, business owner and mother of six, Suzy Levian inherited her passion for design from her father. After working in the family business with her brothers, Suzy felt the need for greater creative expression, forging her own path as the first woman in her family to create a branded line. Celebrating and embodying female empowerment, she designs affordable jewelry for all to enjoy.

    Beginning with colored pencil sketches, Suzy draws her own original concepts, with every design in the collection drawn by Suzy. Renowned for her gem intensive compositions, her work is recognized for its boldness and spirited symbolism. Initially debuting with high end one-of-a-kind jewelry, Suzy has expanded her collections in price ranges affordable to all women. Her success pushes the boundaries beyond jewelry, and she has since launched collections of handbags, scarves, sunglasses, and home décor.

    The Suzy Levian signature look incorporates a secret diamond hidden within each jewel, reminding every woman that there is a secret diamond hidden within themselves.  A fresh and literal reminder of one’s strength and power hidden in plain sight, Suzy Levian says, “Everything changed for me as soon as I let my inner secret diamond shine through. The secret diamond is a reminder to face the world with courage and determination, not accepting the limitations of history. It sparkles for each woman as she makes history.”

    A commitment to philanthropy is a cornerstone of the Suzy Levian brand. Donating over 10% of the proceeds from each piece to various charities and organizations, Suzy Levian is dedicated to partnering with those who give back. Suzy Levian empowers women to buy for themselves, and for each other, celebrating the milestones of life.

    Designer Suzy Levian Aligns New Pink Sapphire and Diamond Jewelry Collections with Breast Cancer Advocacy

    A portion of the proceeds from each jewel sold will support breast cancer research this October.

    Born into a jewelry legacy, Suzy Levian was the youngest of five children, with an aptitude for illustrating intricate designs. Rendering sketches for the family business early on, she had her eye on entrepreneurship, envisioning a signature brand across multiple categories, with female empowerment as the cornerstone. A mother of six, Suzy Levian embraces the dualities of modern womanhood—from nurture and networking to beauty and efficiency, her collections balance wearable, useable, beautiful pieces, with embracing one’s inner power. This October, Suzy is partnering to support women diagnosed with breast cancer, through the Suzy Levian Breast Cancer Awareness Month Page on her website. Those shopping the new jewels will have a portion of the proceeds from each sale donated back to three research foundations: National Breast Cancer Foundation, Susan B. Komen Race for the Cure, and the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, offering an opportunity to give back while accessorizing, or to gift in solidarity.

    The page features a selection of new pink and white jewels by Suzy Levian, with gemstones including: pink sapphire, diamond, morganite, cubic zirconia, pearl, and amethyst. Set in sterling silver, her Breast Cancer Awareness Collection is affordably priced, for woman to own and show camaraderie. As the most common cancer diagnosed in women, also occurring in men, breast cancer irreversibly changes lives. It is crucial to provide support for ongoing research and development.

    Each Suzy Levian jewel features a signature hidden diamond within the band, symbolizing one’s inner strength. Meaningful for this collection, cancer warriors and advocates can wear a Suzy Levian Breast Cancer Awareness Collection jewel, recognizing the journey and inner strength to keep fighting, for oneself, and for loved ones.

    “The process of going through hardship goes hand-in-hand with lifting others up,” says designer, Suzy Levian. “Breast Cancer is a battle no one should ever have to go through, and I wanted to create something that would help move us towards more solutions, while inspiring each other.”
