TEILOR’s linden flower: A Symbol of Simplicity, Strength, and Vision
At TEILOR, we believe diamonds are more than symbols of beauty – they are symbols of leadership, innovation, and empowerment. Just as every diamond is formed under pressure and emerges unique, so too do the stories of those who shape the world with vision and resilience.
The eternal TEILOR symbol: our linden flower adorned with diamonds

Some pieces of jewelry are meant to shine. Others are meant to speak. Our gold linden flower brooch from the Simplicity Collection does both – with quiet elegance and a story that goes back 25 years.
The linden flower is more than a delicate motif. It’s the emblem of TEILOR, inspired by the street where our journey began (TEILOR translates to “Lindens”). For us, it’s a reminder that beauty can be rooted in the simplest things – a moment in nature, a gentle fragrance, a petal’s curve. In Simplicity, we’ve returned to this origin, celebrating the purity and grace that first shaped our brand.
The brooch is crafted in yellow gold, with every petal sculpted to echo the softness of a real linden blossom. Its center is adorned with 0.1ct of natural diamonds – a spark of light that catches the eye, yet never overpowers the design’s delicate flow. It’s a piece that feels as timeless as it does contemporary: wearable art that sits lightly on a lapel, scarf, or dress, yet carries weight in meaning.
Nature has a way of teaching us what matters. It doesn’t rush; it doesn’t complicate. The linden blooms once a year, and when it does, the air changes – softer, sweeter, filled with possibility. That’s the feeling we wanted to capture: a fleeting moment you can hold onto, every day.
The Simplicity Collection is our love letter to natural beauty. No unnecessary adornment, no excess – just form, light, and craftsmanship in perfect harmony. The linden flower brooch is one of its purest expressions: a gesture of elegance for yourself, or a gift that says more than words could.
For us, luxury is not about more. It’s about meaning. And sometimes, meaning is found in something as simple as a flower – one that’s been with us since the very beginning.
Iulia Novac (TEILOR): In luxury, the human touch will always be irreplaceable
TEILOR, a luxury jewellery chain present now in five countries in CEE, started as a dream. One translated into a plan that built further a strong brand – the result of the vision and motivation to find possibilities in each circumstance.
We welcomed Iulia Novac, Marketing Director at TEILOR for an interview on luxury, how AI impacts leadership and the brand’s latest projects.

What is the #1 change that Teilor applied following BRAND MINDS?
At BRAND MINDS, we were reminded that great brands don’t just sell products – they tell stories people want to live in. For us, that meant doubling down on authentic storytelling and creating experiences that stay with you long after you leave the store. These were already part of TEILOR’s DNA, but the event brought fresh perspective, new tools, and highly actionable insights that we’ve woven into every customer touchpoint since.
What are the top 2 strategic priorities for the company in the next 12–18 months?
First, to sharpen our product positioning by developing more in-house collections with storytelling at their heart – collections that not only shine but speak. Second, to accelerate the growth of DAAR, our younger brand dedicated to lab-grown diamonds. TEILOR remains our timeless, elegant cornerstone, while DAAR embodies the fresh, experimental spirit of a new generation. Together, they allow us to honor our heritage while embracing the future.
What are your most effective tactics for improving team engagement at scale?
Engagement begins with belonging. As a family-owned business, TEILOR naturally fosters a deep emotional connection – our people feel they’re building the brand’s story alongside us. With so many ambitious projects unfolding across TEILOR at high speed, every team member can see the immediate impact of their work. It’s motivating to watch an idea evolve into a tangible, beautiful achievement – and to know your contribution helped make it real.
What mindset shifts do leaders need to make to keep up with generational shifts in motivation and workplace culture?
Today’s leaders must evolve from a “command and control” style to one rooted in trust, autonomy, and genuine collaboration. Each generation brings new expectations to the table – and leadership must adapt by listening, communicating openly, and investing in personal connection. It’s not just about assigning a task; it’s about understanding the person behind it, recognising their strengths, and creating space for them to thrive – even in their moments of vulnerability.
In what ways do you see AI transforming the luxury retail experience – both online and in-store?
AI will inevitably reshape luxury retail, but in our industry, transformation tends to move at a more deliberate pace. In luxury, the human touch will always be irreplaceable – from the way a diamond is presented to the warmth of a face-to-face conversation. AI can elevate this by enhancing personalization, anticipating needs, and speeding up processes. But in the end, technology should amplify, not replace, the emotional depth of human connection.
What is the latest news about Teilor?
We’re celebrating two recent launches: last summer with Reverie, a collection that invites you to dream without limits, and this fall with Simplicity, a capsule rooted in our origin story, featuring the emblematic linden flower – a symbol tied to the street where our journey began more 25 years ago. Our communication mirrors the pieces themselves: minimalist in form, rich in meaning, and always centred on the client experience.

What are the top 3 changes that TEILOR applied following BRAND MINDS?
Following BRAND MINDS, I took into consideration new ideas that could be applied in TEILOR. One of the things that I understood better was the importance of emotional intelligence. Understanding our emotions in the workplace can positively impact the work environment and the relations between peers. This way, we were able to maximize our efforts for each project.
The 2022 edition of BRAND MINDS came with another insight for us: to use all communication channels. Adapting the message to every communication channel helps you reach out to your audience or new segments that might be interested in the brand.
Lastly, I think this event is a reminder to keep innovation and novelty as part of your day-to-day work and approach in projects & advertising in general.
What are TEILOR’s most important insights that the company learned about at BRAND MINDS?
Each speaker brought new insights and information, depending on their expertise. The examples brought a better understanding of how most of the strategies, approaches or ways of working are personalized by each company that chooses to adopt them. This offered me confidence as well as more trust to convey certain approaches towards the team or my peers.
At the same time, we were reminded to embrace change as this is the only constant in the business environment.
Name the most essential aspect of team management according to TEILOR.
In an entrepreneurial business, opportunities can arise at any point so fast decision-making is a key factor. Thus, communication and adaptability are some of the most important aspects of team management. At the same time, to make sure you are on the right path, you need a common & aligned understanding of the goals and objectives.
When it comes to team management, is also important to seek the passion the desire to learn in all team members. Supporting personal development in line with business needs can lead to exponential growth for the company’s results as well as for the teams’ motivation.
How important is it for TEILOR to invest in team development?
We seek to learn and develop at all stages. TEILOR is a story perfected by each member of our team. The development is what makes the brand go further, as we encourage and believe in continuous training.
The DNA of our business is based on unstoppable motivation, one characteristic that describes each team.
What are the top 3 changes in marketing that marketers should be aware of?
The marketing industry is in continuous development, but some of the most significant changes are, at this moment, the growing importance of real-time marketing and staying connected to your audience.
Also, omnichannel personalization of the customer journey is just as important.
Of course, nowadays, a strong message is needed, especially when it comes to digital marketing and social media.
What is the latest news about TEILOR our readers should learn?
TEILOR is focusing on developing its presence in each market. We built an omnichannel presence, looking into translating the experience everyone has in store to digital. From product renderings to integrating tools that improve the shopping experience.

TEILOR, a story about diamonds, courage & motivation
TEILOR, a luxury jewellery chain present now in five countries in CEE, started as a dream. One translated into a plan that built further a strong brand – the result of the vision and motivation to find possibilities in each circumstance.
TEILOR, the story behind the brand
The first store opened its doors in 1998 on Teilor (Lindens) street – the one that also inspired the name of the brand. A strong vision and ambition led the brand to new opportunities – 51 stores in Romania that convey a unique brand experience through design, product portfolio and services.
In 2019, the company made the next step in line with the brand’s mission – opened its first stores in Bulgaria & Poland. Today, the 25 years of tradition translate into a brand that exceeds the local grounds to new stores across Europe – in Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic.
Aligned with international trends, TEILOR portfolio consists of iconic designs to celebrate life’s meaningful moments.
Diamonds, precious and semi-precious gemstones are part of the brand’s collections – with different cuts or colours, they become elements of statement jewellery pieces. The brand’s carefully selected designs are internationally certified by De Beers Institute of Diamonds and GIA, leaders in the diamond industry. Covering different styles, the brand also has a selection of versatile jewellery, an affordable luxury for everyday moments.
The main protagonists in the brand’s collections, diamonds are made of only one element – carbon. In the same manner, the DNA of the business is based only on unstoppable motivation. One that is visible in every step of the brand – from store openings to memorable launches of new collections.
Jewellery – the meeting point of art and new technologies
The brand’s collections are in sync with global trends, encompassing not only fashion but also technology. Adapting new materials, incorporating diamonds, the strongest gemstone with 10 on the Mohs scale, into titanium and overcoming each challenge – proof that the motivation behind the brand is visible in every process.
Brand collections – a statement through design
Each of TEILOR’s collections talks about authenticity, craftsmanship, and a powerful concept – one that exudes the qualities of each gemstone into a memorable message.
The Exceptional – a collection of unique designs & confidence
The Exceptional – one of the brand’s iconic collections reunites diamonds and precious stones into unique settings. With impressive carats & coloured gemstones, each piece of jewellery is like no other – a spectacle of reflections & elegance.
The collection, inspired by the qualities of each individual, is a statement of confidence – every person is exceptional in everything they do.
The Exceptional also supported the communication concept of the brand in 2022. A reminder that every person is exceptional – also the core of the concept presented in the past year at BRAND MINDS.
Pure Diamonds – a selection of jewellery with diamonds as the main characters
An iconic collection that explores diamonds in all their shapes – put together into jewellery that combines elegance with attention to detail. Carefully set into gold, each diamond conveys the 4C’s (cut, clarity, colour, carat) into shapes that gracefully reflect the light.
The collection is a reminder of the beauty and the power of a diamond. A statement of elegance in a simple, natural way that was also unveiled on the streets of Cannes.
Brave New Men – symbols of courage & high aspirations
In 2022, TEILOR launched the first collection with an in-house design. A picture of courage and vision, the Brave New Men collection is a symbol of innovation and new technologies. Among gold, the collection brings a novelty – the use of titanium in jewellery.
The new material became a challenge – through the intense processing journey and the difficulty of integrating the diamonds due to the metal’s hardness. Complexity was, however, a motivation. And black and white gold, black or transparent diamonds and their combination naturally complemented the design.
Inspired by architecture and created by international jewellers who have embraced the challenge, the collection is a reminder that every day you are the architect of your own life.
TEILOR x BRAND MINDS – People are like diamonds
Through each collection or piece of jewellery, the brand continues its journey. Novelty, design and ambition – all lead to new stories – and one of them was written at BRAND MINDS 2022.
Inspired by the BRAND MINDS community – professionals who desire to learn more and aspire to become their best version – TEILOR took further the symbolism behind The Exceptional collection.
The result? A parallel with diamonds became the core of the concept presented at the event:
People are like diamonds. Carved and polished for their own notion of success.
