The Designer

Shirin Goodarzi

Freelance jewellery & watch designer — Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Profile

Craftsmanship meets modern technology

I am a creative and detail-oriented freelance jewellery and watch designer with over two years of hands-on experience delivering custom concepts for private clients. My work transforms an initial idea into a finished, high-quality design through a multidisciplinary approach — traditional hand sketching, advanced digital rendering in Procreate, and innovative concept exploration with generative AI.

I manage the full design lifecycle: interpreting each client's personal style, selecting materials, and carrying a piece from the first pencil line to high-fidelity renders and 3D development in Gemvision MatrixGold — always with attention to wearability, proportion and practical manufacturing.

Working Together

Dubai, and worldwide

I take a limited number of private commissions. If a piece in the portfolio speaks to you — or you have something of your own in mind — the conversation starts with a simple WhatsApp message.

Principles

Three commitments

Original Design

Every piece is designed from scratch — drawn, painted and modelled as a one-of-a-kind work.

Honest Materials

18K gold and natural gemstones with traceable origins, selected for each individual design.

Personal Service

One designer, one conversation — from your first message to the day the piece reaches you.
