DIVY jewels

Milano, ITALY

There are wonderful stories waiting to be told. I listen to them and transform them into jewels.

Each jewel is unique, born from a deep passion and a careful listening to nature, design, and the stories that surround it—shaped in a light and essential way.

Divy Sonia Zahirpour, of Italian-Iranian origin, is a goldsmith designer. She graduated in Law from the University of Milan, but her path took an unexpected turn when a moment of “magic” changed her trajectory.

In 2001, she attended fresco and engraving courses at the Scuola del Castello Sforzesco in Milan, marking the beginning of her artistic and spiritual journey between Italy and India. In 2007, she continued her training at the Uroburo School of New Goldsmithing.

Her work has been exhibited in various institutions, including the Bookshop of the Fondazione Stelline in Milan and the Fondazione Agnelli in Turin. Her practice is constantly evolving, driven by new inspirations and technical exploration.
