Rooted in Lebanese heritage and inspired by the interplay of light over the landscapes, architecture, and sunsets of the Middle East, INAYAT is a new collection where meaning, geometry, and emotion converge. Drawing from her travels to India, Noor was captivated by the grace of arches, portals, and Sufi-inspired architecture, where formal order and spiritual intent meet in luminous, centralised spaces.
ANAHATA is Noor’s exploration of love through the symbolism of the heart chakra. Named after the chakra associated with compassion, harmony, and emotional balance, the collection reimagines the engagement ring as a meaningful love token. Each piece combines our signature spiritual motifs and sacred geometry with responsibly sourced gemstones. At the heart of the collection are rare antique and vintage-cut diamonds, sourced in collaboration with Perpetuum Jewels, ensuring each stone carries both a unique history and a sustainable provenance. By pairing ethical sourcing with symbolic design, ANAHATA transforms traditional bridal jewelry into deeply personal talismans of love, intention, and connection.
R aised in Paris and of Lebanese heritage, Noor Fares is a designer whose work is shaped by a lifelong curiosity for culture, symbolism and the magic found in the world around her. After completing her MA at Central Saint Martins and earning her GIA certification, she launched her eponymous jewellery brand in 2009. Noor is known for creating modern-day talismans - colourful, meaningful pieces inspired by sacred geometry, architecture, travel and the unexpected beauty she encounters along the way.
At the heart of Noor’s design process is a fascination with gemstones and their natural character. Many of the stones used in her collections are hand-carved, with their colour, texture and intrinsic character guiding the final design. Rather than seeking perfection, Noor celebrates natural inclusions within the stones, subtle markings that make each gem unique. Much like people, these imperfections tell a story, reminding us that beauty often lies in individuality. Her designs are then brought to life by master artisans in Jaipur, where generations of craftsmanship transform her vision into finely detailed, hand-made jewellery.
Noor’s practice is underpinned by a thoughtful approach to making. She works with responsibly sourced gold and seeks to trace the journey of each gemstone as much as possible, ensuring care and consideration throughout the creation of every piece.
Previously stocked at Net-a-Porter and Bergdorf Goodman, Noor Fares jewellery is now available at Aubade Jewellery, Macle, Meister 1881, Naïs Concept, More Than This, That Concept Store, and Twist.
