Lobortas Classic Jewellery House

What Lobortas Classic Jewellery House does

Lobortas Classic Jewellery House is a bespoke luxury jewellery manufacturer operating from Kyiv, Ukraine, founded in 1997 by Igor Lobortas. The firm creates one-of-a-kind custom jewellery, precious objects, silverware, religious items, trophies, and signature art pieces for VIP clients including royalty, heads of state, religious leaders, and international sports federations. Its work is delivered exclusively through direct commissions rather than retail or e-commerce channels, with marketing executed via high-profile international exhibitions and earned media coverage.

The house's technical differentiation rests on proprietary engineering systems rather than material luxury alone. Notable innovations include an Unquenchable Vigil Lamp with precisely calculated thermal flow convection that sustains the Jerusalem Holy Fire through flight and transfer conditions, an electromechanical chess set ("Marches on Bosporan") that the firm describes as the only one of its kind, and a double trophy system with replaceable seal stamps for repeat championship winners. Signature creations include the Guinness World Record-holding Tsarevna Swan ring with 2,525 diamonds valued at $1,300,000 and a Falcon sculpture incorporating more than 12,000 diamonds. Dozens of master artisans with architectural backgrounds staff the workshop, and every development is documented with technological maps and proprietary know-how.

Revenue derives from three streams: custom jewellery commissions, bespoke precious objects (trophies, awards, religious items, sculptures), and jewellery repair and restoration services, all priced on a quote basis with no public list. Distribution occurs through direct sales to enterprise and institutional clients, supplemented by exhibitions at venues such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Le Club des Joailliers Créateurs (Paris), Via Montenapoleone (Milan), JCK Las Vegas, and the Singapore International Jewellery Expo. Documented geographic reach spans Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Asia with named commissions executed in at least eleven countries.
