About us

Seyyah began in 2018 with a mother, a daughter, and a collection of hand-embroidered statement jewelry. Founded by Ezgi Kaya and her mother, Neslihan, our brand has grown over the years, shaped by the pieces we love and the people who wear them.

A Mother-Daughter Beginning

Our first statement pieces were created with a small group of women artisans in Turkey, led by Neslihan. Their hand embroidery gave Seyyah its starting point: jewelry full of detail, color, and character.

Our name means “traveler.” Travel, art, and the places we feel connected to have always been part of our story, from Istanbul to the Mediterranean and our home in Alexandria, Virginia.

From Statement Pieces to Everyday Favorites

As our lives changed during the pandemic, our collection evolved too. Alongside our hand-embroidered statement jewelry, we began offering everyday earrings: hoops, huggies, studs, and cuffs to mix, layer, and make your own.

Today, both sides of Seyyah belong together. You might come to us for a bold pair of earrings for a special occasion, or for the little pieces you reach for every morning. We love helping you find your own combination.

Finding Our Home in Alexandria

Alexandria is more than the place where we opened a shop. Ezgi has called this city home for ten years and had long dreamed of having a store here.

Our Alexandria pop-ups in 2021, 2022, and 2023 were part of that journey. As Seyyah grew online and through shops across the DMV area, we kept looking forward to a permanent space of our own.

In March 2026, that dream became our little shop at 101A S St. Asaph Street. After years of pop-ups, we now have a place to welcome you in the city we call home.

Come Meet Seyyah

We love stacking, styling, and seeing how different people make our jewelry their own. If you are nearby, stop in, say hello, and explore the collection in person. Walk-ins are always welcome.
