Sustainable Jewelry Combining Artistic Creativity and a Love for Meditation
By Gina
Sustainable jewelry by designer Ani Han combines artistic creativity with a love for meditation and concentration. In this interview, the jewelry designer and art director of Enso Design Lab shares her unique approach to design.
Ani grew up in a large, lively Armenian family. Despite the active and noisy environment she was raised in, Ani found her refuge in creativity and drawing. She says, "From a young age, I loved to draw and create, finding comfort in art. It was my innate passion that always gave me strength and inspiration." Under the pressure of her parents to study crisis management in the banking sector for a stable career, Ani faced a real challenge, as it was far from what she loved. "I graduated with honors and dedicated my free time to learning the art of jewelry design," she explains.
The real turning point came when Ani realized that she could not find happiness in the banking sector. "Leaving a stable career was risky but necessary," she says. Ani started with small projects and limited jewelry collections, receiving positive feedback that confirmed her path. She explains, "Inner intuition plays a significant role in my creative style and inspires me to focus and find inner peace."
Ani founded the Enso Design Lab in Dubai, which she sees as the embodiment of her personal philosophy: "We create accessories and jewelry that combine simplicity, high quality, and deep philosophical meanings." The company focuses on eco-friendly materials and modern technologies to minimize their environmental impact. "Our goal is to create beautiful accessories with deep meanings that become part of our clients' personalities," she adds.
The brand name carries many meanings. Ani explains the meaning of the word "Enso" and what it symbolizes: "The word Enso in Japanese means 'complete circle,' reflecting harmony and completeness. We strive to convey these values through all our creations and inspire people to live more consciously and harmoniously."

Every product should tell a story, enriching the designs and coordinating them, as each piece has personal significance. We use sustainable materials to minimize their environmental impact and rely on skilled craftsmanship for quality," she adds.
Ani concludes, "My creative style always begins with complete concentration. I try to calm down and open my mind to new ideas. When I am in a state of calm, I feel more receptive to the world around me. This state really helps me to be more in tune with creative ideas. When inspiration comes, I try to capture it immediately. Sometimes it’s quick sketches in a notebook, other times voice notes on a recorder. It’s important for me not to miss any details because it’s in such moments that the most unique and original ideas are
