David Webb was an American jeweller renowned for his bold, sculptural designs that defined mid-20th-century style. He founded his eponymous brand in New York in 1948 and quickly became celebrated for his use of vibrant enamel, textured gold and striking animal motifs, often drawing inspiration from ancient and global art. His jewels were worn by style icons such as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Elizabeth Taylor, securing his reputation as a jeweller of distinction. Today, the house of David Webb continues to craft pieces from his original archives, preserving his legacy of creativity and craftsmanship.
