Jewelry and Metal Art

Born in 1985 in Mashhad, Iran, Anousha Mohsenidarabi holds a bachelor’s degree in Architecture, and currently, is a Jewelry and Metal Art student at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, California. While in Iran, Anousha worked at her family’s custom paint manufacturing business for many years and gained a lot of experience with the technicalities of color. After an opportunity to travel to India and Africa, Anousha discovered her interest in gemstones and artistic jewelry, and later in 2017, moved to San Francisco to pursue her newest passion at the Academy of Art University. Anousha has developed a skill set in metal fabrication, stone setting, enameling, wax carving, and casting. She is planning to open her own jewelry and metal art business in the future where she can work both as a designer and a gemologist. Anousha’s work is heavily inspired by the beauty of nature’s colors and textures. She enjoys working with gemstones, beads, semi-precious metals, glass, wood, and ceramics. Anousha loves crafting beautiful objects to wear and hopes that people will enjoy owning her pieces as much as she enjoys making them.
