Montreal-based fine jewelry brand Sphinx & Emeralds' debut collection blends heritage craftsmanship with a modern, accessible approach to luxury. Founded by Kris Arora, the brand emphasizes intentional design, offering genderless pieces that serve as expressions of identity while reflecting a growing shift toward more conscious consumption.
The collection features rings, earrings, and necklaces crafted in solid gold and adorned with hand-selected natural gemstones, alongside lab-grown and alternative stones. Drawing inspiration from Jaipur’s architectural forms and organic natural shapes, the pieces introduce bold color through vivid greens, rubies, and rare hues designed for everyday wear.
Central to the brand is its “one-of-one” philosophy, where each stone is individually sourced to maintain uniqueness and artistry. By bypassing traditional retail markups and offering flexible purchasing options, Sphinx & Emeralds positions itself within the evolving accessible luxury space. As consumers increasingly seek transparency, personalization, and ethical alignment, the launch reflects a broader redefinition of what modern fine jewelry can represent.
