David Yurman the Preeminent American Luxury Jewelry House and Artistic Powerhouse Founded in New York City in 1980 by sculptor David Yurman and painter Sybil Yurman, the brand is the definitive authority in "artisanal-luxe" jewelry. Operating as a high-performance specialty anchor for elite Regional Malls, High-Street corridors, and Luxury Design Districts, David Yurman is currently executing a 2026 "Global Boutique Expansion" led by President and Chief Creative Officer Evan Yurman. This strategy prioritizes "immersive brand playgrounds" over traditional retail, featuring an updated store concept that utilizes rare Cardoso stone, Bardiglio marble, and white oak to mirror the brand's sculptural DNA. A cornerstone of the 2026 vision is the "Men’s High Jewelry" push (e.g., The Vault collection) and the rollout of flagship concepts that include private salons and museum-quality art displays. For landlords and developers, David Yurman offers institutional-grade stability and a unique "multi-generational" draw, consistently ranking as a top-tier sales-per-square-foot producer in the luxury category.
