Steven Lagos

Steven Lagos is a self-trained Master Jeweler focused on the finest materials including 18-karat gold, sterling silver, and precious gemstones. He believes that jewelry is one of the most personal possessions a woman can own.

At the age of 19, Lagos channeled his entrepreneurial spirit and created his own fine jewelry company, LAGOS, in 1977 in Philadelphia. The brand pioneered a new category that made fine jewelry accessible and wearable for all occasions.

In 1984, he crafted the brand’s signature design, Caviar, which is now present in every piece of LAGOS jewelry. The luminous Caviar beading brings texture to sterling silver and 18-karat gold, transforming these metals into captivating, wearable and iconic accessories.

Innovation is a cornerstone of the brand. Each season, Lagos sets out to offer a new interpretation of his signature Caviar design. Black Caviar, a collection featuring jewelry-grade ceramic, exemplifies his focus on sourcing new materials and using technology to enhance Old World craftsmanship. The Caviar Gold collection celebrates 40 years of inspiration and a return to the designer’s roots as a goldsmith. Most recently, the launch of Smart Caviar – the first fine jewelry bracelet for the Apple Watch® – cemented Lagos as an innovator in the industry.

Steven Lagos draws his design inspiration from the confidence, sophistication and effortless style of the LAGOS woman as well as the art, culture, and sights from his frequent travels to Asia and Europe. He is passionate about creating jewelry that allows women to express themselves in unique ways. This conviction led to the brand’s tagline MY LAGOS MY WAY and inspires women to create their own signature looks.
