Where It All Began
With over 32 years of experience, I am the owner and house designer of Christi Sothers, a high-end fashion jewelry house run with my husband, Steven, and built on three generations of family expertise. While I didn’t open the original store, I’m proud to carry on its legacy, blending tradition with my passion for custom, one-of-a-kind designs.
My journey began in Israel, where I completed military service before joining the prestigious Diamond Exchange, mastering the art of rating stones and cutting diamonds. I later moved to New York City to study at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), further refining my craft.
Today, I create jewelry for clients from all walks of life—brides, families celebrating milestones, and public figures alike. As the Official Jeweler to Miss New York in the Miss America Organization, I continue a family tradition of elegance, craftsmanship, and personal service for everyone who values beauty and timeless design.
