Sophie Buhai is a designer living and working in Los Angeles.

Her namesake jewelry collection, established in 2015, has renewed the modernist tradition of solid sterling silver with an emphasis on sculptural silhouettes of substantial weight. Each piece is made by hand in Los Angeles by master silversmiths using recycled silver to minimize environmental impact. Worldwide, the collection is available at such stores as Dover Street Market, Bergdorf Goodman, Net-a-Porter, and The Line, as well as institutions of art and design including the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum and the Cooper-Hewitt.

For three seasons, Buhai has also been designing the runway and collection jewelry for Lemaire.

In addition to her jewelry practice,she creates interiors for select private clients. Through her online boutique, she curates a selection of domestic and art objects accessible to all.

Prior to establishing her Los Angeles studio, Buhai spent a decade as co-creative director of the New York-based womenswear brand Vena Cava, a CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund runner-up. She is a graduate of Parsons School of Design.

Her work has been featured in Vogue, The New York Times, T, M Le Monde, and WSJ, among other publications.
