Nayla Arida

Nayla Arida was born in Beirut. The child of the war that raged through Lebanon, she fled her country with her family when they decided to settle in France, where she grew up and studied. Twenty-five years of exile later, Nayla reconnects with her roots and returns to Lebanon, the homeland she has never stopped loving.

In continuous search for dreams and aesthetics, Nayla turns to the jewelry world where she finds herself. There, she designs jewelry for the Lebanese brand, Les Bazella, starting with a small line of jewels. In workshops, she then discovers the secrets of creating and making. Her fascination with jewelry as well as her curiosity and acute eye for detail evolve, compelling her to set her own trends and creations. She launches her brand under her own name: Nayla Arida.

Nayla derives her inspiration from Beirut, the bustling and captivating city, the capital of all contrasts and the melting pot of different cultures that intermingle daily. She uncovers an incredible, creative energy thanks to Beirut, the city so many times wounded but each time reviving itself. The city where nothing seems to make sense, yet everything works.

Nayla's creations are entirely handmade. They are sold in Beirut, London, Paris and Dubai.
