About Us

LA-LEH designs contemporary jewelry rooted in nostalgia, architecture, and the quiet patterns of the natural world, in conversation with traditional South Asian design.

The idea for LA-LEH was born in our Brooklyn apartment, as we talked about how accessible jewelry design feels back home in Pakistan, and how privileged we are to know the talented, often overlooked artisans there. On trips home, we would visit the same jewellers who have worked with our families for generations, collaborating on pieces we felt were missing from the market. Without fail, they brought our ideas to life with impeccable craftsmanship.

We wanted to share that privilege. So we reached out to the artisans who have long adorned our mothers, aunts, and grandmothers and asked if they would join us in this new endeavour. Together with them, LA-LEH took shape.

Each piece is handcrafted and composed entirely of sterling silver, designed to hold its value and its lustre over time. From day one, we’ve been committed to producing high-quality pieces responsibly, a promise that extends from our materials to our packaging.

For those who choose to invite LA-LEH into your lives and invest in our story, thank you. We hope this is the beginning of a collaboration that lasts a lifetime.
