What to know about David Yurman
One twisted cable, everywhere
The Cable motif — a twisted helix launched on the 1983 Cable Bracelet — recurs as clasps, settings and accents across rings, necklaces and earrings.
Silver base, precious accents
Most pieces pair sterling silver with diamonds and gold, which is how a high-tier jewelry house keeps entry points below all-gold pricing.
Men's line goes industrial
Led by Evan Yurman, the men's side works in black titanium, forged carbon and meteorite rather than the silver-and-diamond formula.
