Talin Hagopian Waugh, the creator of TALIN DESIGN started her artistic journey more than twelve years ago in Egypt. In 2005, Talin completed her Bachelor's degree with a major in Graphic Design and minor in Photography.

Talin followed her natural talents and her passion for designing jewelry. She worked in "Creation" as a jewelry instructor (wiring and beading), at the same time, she took courses on jewelry designing at the Instituto Di Burgo in Italy until she decided to return to Canada. While back in Canada, she continued to invest in her jewelry making abilities by taking a stone setting course at the Algonquin College in Ottawa and Gem Vision Matrix/Digital gold smith in Toronto.

Talin obtained her degree as a Diamond grader at the Gemology Institute of America (GIA) and colored stone grading. She is continuing her studies by taking Gem Identification course right now, never losing sight of her passion for designing jewelry.

"I enjoy designing and making handmade jewelry to help women feel beautiful, confident and unique."

The upcoming collection from Talin Design, draws inspiration from vintage, intricate, design concepts, yet also reflects a modern sophisticated look.

"All of my jewelry is handmade and most of my designs are limited not duplicated. Each piece maintains its own individuality and I hope that my art will inspire women to feel chic, and evoke her to have her own sense of style and personality".
