Expressions by Mikhail
Mikhail Alexander Epelman, a Russian immigrant, was born and raised in St. Petersburg surrounded by the astounding beauty of the city’s 18th and 19th-century architecture. Due to the change in political climate, he defected and made his way to America in 1979. Upon arrival, Mikhail continued his studies but also became more involved in sculpting. He bought loose gemstones and began creating forms out of wax. Instantly, a newfound love took hold, and in 1982, ‘Expressions by Mikhail’ was born. In 1986, he opened his first gallery in metropolitan Detroit.
Mikhail’s line of intricately designed wedding rings is especially popular. These stunning creations are handmade with brilliant hand-selected conflict free diamonds. Like Mikhail’s rings, every couple is a unique combination of individuality that comes together in perfect unison. Expressions by Mikhail are reflective of a couple’s distinct nature. As an award winning designer, Mikhail’s dynamic jewelry is found only in the finest jewelry stores throughout the United States and abroad.

We think the best approach is to do everything we can to continue manufacturing HL jewelry here in America. This assures us that our products are manufactured under fair labor conditions in a safe and healthy working environment where the rights and dignity of workers are respected.
