About

Soraya Silchenstedt was born to an Indo-Guyanese mother and a Norwegian father. Her multi-cultural background provokes an aesthetic fusion visible in her delicately feminine jewelry. A native New Yorker, Soraya was formally educated at both the Parsons School of Design and the Fashion Institute of Technology. Soraya’s devotion to the craft of jewelry design awarded her a nomination for the prestigious CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award in 2011.
