Who we are
Founded by Catalina, Urartya is the intersection of two lifelong passions, music and design. As a professional cellist, Catalina approaches jewellery with the same precision and emotive depth required for a performance.
While inspired by the raw textures of the ancient world, the vision is entirely modern. By collaborating with silver makers, urartya reimagines historic motifs as bold, minimalist statements for the contemporary wardrobe.
Every design is a tribute to the power of artistic contrast, where tradition meets an effortless, everyday edge.
For Catalina, Urartya is defined by presence. It is designed to inspire a bold confidence, leaving the wearer feeling both unique and powerful
Frequently Asked Questions
-
We use 925 Sterling Silver for all our collections. This high silver content ensures durability and provides the perfect canvas for the deep, precise engravings and patterns.
-
To ensure a perfect fit for everyone, our rings and bracelets are designed in a versatile "One Size" adjustable fit.
-
Our 925 sterling silver is durable yet flexible. The metal is designed to be shaped once to your preferred size. It allows you to gently press the ends together or pull them slightly apart for a perfect, custom fit on your finger
We recommend finding your perfect fit and avoiding repeated bending to maintain the long term integrity of the design.
-
To maintain the lasting quality of your piece, we recommend storing it in a cool, dry place when not in use. As genuine 925 Sterling Silver is a precious metal, it can naturally react to humidity and air over time, which may cause it to darken. To restore its original lustre, gently polish the surface with a soft silver polishing cloth, avoiding any harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
-
Yes. Unlike "bright white" commercial silver, our pieces are intentionally designed with a deeper, more antique finish which is a key part of the Urartya aesthetic. This contrast between the polished silver and the darker, recessed details is a deliberate design choice that honours the traditional look of historical metalwork.
