About Us

Boris Barr is an eponymous brand founded by our leader, friend, creative director—and an extraordinary human being—Boris Baraev. A deeply empathetic soul who sees and feels every emotion, Boris was inspired to create a house that translates the magic of feeling into the beauty of precious stones and metals.

Though young, our brand has spent the last five years earning its name in the industry. Our purpose is to stand beside people on their most beautiful days and to share in life’s joyful and tender moments. Every emotion a person experiences is embodied in each of our pieces.

Belief in love is one of our foundations—and that is why everything we do, we do with love.

Wearing Diamond Jewelry

Our Story

Boris Barr

Boris Barr is the eponymous jewelry house founded by our leader, friend, creative director—and an extraordinarily empathetic human—Boris Barayev. From the very beginning, Boris saw jewelry not simply as form, but as a language of feeling. That insight became our purpose: to translate human emotion into the beauty of precious stones and metals—and craft stories you can wear.

From Real Estate to Fine Jewelry: Precision, Trust, Responsibility

Before launching the brand—and alongside it—Boris has worked in mortgage and real estate, guiding people through some of life’s most important financial decisions. That world taught him to listen deeply, clarify needs, and take responsibility for outcomes. These skills shaped our jewelry practice:

  • Precision & transparency in material selection and pricing

  • Personal strategy tailored to each client’s story and budget

  • Trust & timing—we honor your dates because we know how much they matter

Five Years, A Trusted Name

For five years, we’ve grown from a small creative studio into a house people trust for meaningful moments—proposals and weddings, family milestones and personal victories. Every piece is more than design; it is an emotion cut into form—joy, hope, gratitude, remembrance.

Philosophy: “Emotions Have a Cut”

We believe in love—and that is why everything we do, we do with love. Three principles guide our work:

  1. Meaning — a piece should speak for the person who wears it

  2. Honest materials — natural stones, thoughtful cuts, noble alloys

  3. Wearability & longevity — pieces that live easily in your wardrobe and remain relevant for years

How We Work

  • Conversation — we start with your story: the person, the moment, the feelings, the budget

  • Sketch & stone curation — multiple design directions with a palette of stones that match your narrative

  • Craft — small batches and one-of-one pieces, quality-checked at every stage

  • Aftercare — cleaning, polishing, resizing, engraving, stone certificates; we’re here long after the purchase

Ethical Sourcing & Certification

We partner with suppliers who share our values: transparent origin, accurate grading, and certified stones. This isn’t a trend; it’s respect—for people and for the planet.

Where “Home” Begins

Boris’s experience in mortgage and real estate taught us to value the moment when someone finds what is truly theirs—a home, a place, a person. Boris Barr is about the same feeling: helping you discover “mine” and preserving it in metal and stone.

Boris Barr — a jewelry house where emotions find their cut, and promises are kept.
