“J ewelry should strive to be art,” says Yehouda Saketkhou, founder and chief designer at YAEL Designs, who began his entrepreneurial journey as a young boy growing up in Paris. Well known for creating award-winning collections of fine jewelry and one-of-a-kind pieces, Yehouda draws inspiration from nature, architecture, and art, as well as his faraway travels to the four corners of the world. Each year, YAEL Designs produces some of the industry’s most cutting-edge jewelry, from red carpet to bridal to everyday wear. “I create jewelry that warms the hearts of those who wear it,” he says. “That is a powerful tool, so I make sure that every step in the design process conveys its own inspiration, personality, and story.” The materials used to tell these stories include precious metals and the finest quality diamonds and gemstones. The designer personally selects each gem that goes into his collections and custom pieces. The latest collection is Tesserae, the result of a collaboration between Yehouda and another of YAEL Designs’ talented designers, Carolyn Simon, who shares his appreciation for art and nature. The new pieces are highlighted by a grouping of colorful gemstones set in gold and accented with diamonds. “We were inspired by the way color and light play together in stained glass,” explains Yehodua. “We wanted to create our own gemstone mosaic of color and light.” The pieces in the collection are dotted with the glorious, rich colors of sapphire, ruby, fire opal, blue topaz, and amethyst, which combine to create remarkable rings, earrings, necklaces, and bangles that explore color with fun and unique combinations. One-of-a-kind jewels make up a significant part YAEL’s offer. These unique pieces feature beautiful gems such as red, pink, green and mint tourmaline, free-form fire opal, topaz, and many more. With the level of care that goes into each piece, YAEL Designs not only guarantees lasting quality but also provides a one-year warranty for all its creations.
