Ariane Zurcher Designs
After graduating from Parsons School of Design, I began my career in fashion design and freelanced both in New York City, as well as London. I designed hand knits for Elle Magazine and was the editor of the Hand Knit Page before hand knits fell out of fashion in the early 1990's and the page was discontinued. In 2008 I launched my jewelry design business, designing fine jewe
lry in 18 & 20 Kt Gold with gemstones I hand select for each piece. Several awards and numerous write ups & interviews in all kinds of magazines and online zines later, I re-discovered hand stitching in 2015, and my life took another turn. I have been designing in some form since I sold my first felt embroidered xmas tree ornaments to a small shop in Northern California when I was 16 years old, and have never looked back. And while I've had detours along the way: two amazing children, Creative Director at an advertising agency, got into acting in my early 20's, published numerous articles for national and international magazines and newspapers, as well as the Huffington Post, I have always come back to designing. It is my first love and remains so to this day. Stay tuned for exciting new designs and products coming in the near future!
