From the promised land of Israel, the finest in hand crafted ornaments are being presented by gifted Jewish craftsmen and passionate designers.Israel has been, and still is a melting pot of various cultures and civilizations and the richness of the historical blend of these artistic and spiritual traditions are embedded in the ancient and modern works of art in the country. Jewellery crafting in Israel is a flourishing, traditional trade as Israeli women and men appreciate art forms and adornments.

The new trend of hand crafted jewellery making has caught up in Israel too, and you can find a very unique collection of traditional, semi traditional and modern trimmings in the designer studios in the country. These high quality adornments mirror the ancient and deeply evolved visage of the Israeli ethnicity which is rich with the cultures from all over the world.

Classic Israeli jewellery is created from a dexterous blend of gold, silver and precious and semi precious stones and beads. More modern minded jewellers use the traditional styles, as well, and also add on fine glass beads and Swarovski crystals for that ...
... extra allure.

Many modern Israeli women have ventured into this field of partisanship and have applied their gift of artistic expression, heart and soul into their creations.

Nicol Gold is one of the newer generation jewellery designers who have much patronized outlets in stores in Israel and California in the US. These new designers use exquisitely hand crafted jewellery designs which reflect the profound and versatile spirit of Israel.

The use of genuine pearls, semi precious gems in the gold filled and gold covered ornaments give these pieces of art, a graceful and chic appearance. The bright colours of the glass beads and gems are brought together cleverly for an elegant but stylish contemporary appeal.

Traditionally themed jewellery motifs like the 'star of David' and 'peace' design have strong spiritual symbolism incorporated into them. Pure Jewish religious patterns are used in them to create a positive energy aura around the wearer which is believed to usher in fortuity, and to ward away the evil eye and other negative energies. According to Hebrew beliefs, these motifs will instill courage and confidence, and work in bidding in divine blessings.

Israeli jewellery is astonishingly unique, coming from a country that has been ravaged by chaos and unrest for the better part of the century. There is something to entertain every taste, and even the men's collections are definitely trendy and much sought after.

The 'Judaic a' and 'Star of David' motifs are a sensation among both the ladies and gents collections. The contemporary trends in Israeli jewellery crafting are unlike any other range of ethnic jewellery. You can sense the deep mysteries of the Hebrew soul while still experiencing the fervour and unrest of the young new world.
