MEAMARKETS / Q4 2019 11 , Sep19314 Best Luxury Jeweller Design Studio & Boutique - Tel Aviv Jewellery can inspire inner strength as much as it can accentuate outer beauty, especially when imbued with an authentic origin story. To own a piece of jewellery carefully-crafted by a skilledmaker is to carry something of that person’s soul and intention out into the world. Exceptionally infusing ancient traditionwithmodern spirit, the exquisite collection from designer Sharon Chandally Pedrini shines with award-winning grace and luxury. Nestled in an enchanting space in the centre of bustling Tel Aviv lies Chandally Jewelry, a store that journeys into tradition and finds a sweet spot where luxury and heritage meet. At the heart of the business is designer/owner Sharon Pedrini, the first woman in a long line of silversmiths who originated in Yemen. Drawing on the filigree silversmithing techniques taught to her by her great-uncles in Israel, Sharon carries the tradition forward by creating contemporary jewellery that honors the country’s roots. Her work exudes history and is an invitation to own a modern heirloom that creatively straddles the line between old and new. Trained by her great-uncles during an apprenticeship that invoked memories of her grandfather, Sharon’s work achieves more than mere jewellery. Each piece is a masterful representation of how modern jewelry can connect us to spirit, power and possibility, just like it used to do in earlier times. With careful hands and a wise mind, Chandally Jewelry has become one of the most luxurious and sought-after jewellers practicing in Tel Aviv today. Finding inspiration in everything she sees, Sharon’s jewellery is also a reflection of her passion for world cultures. Having travelled extensively in countries such as New Zealand, India, Ghana, Benin and Japan, the New York-native continually draws from the wealth of colours, textures and styles she encountered in her travels. It’s no surprise that her jewelry also acts like an open invitation, a call to explore the world that lies beyond our front door. With such noble aspirations, the appeal of Chandally Jewelry is clear: pieces that are both timeless and enduring, that anchor and guide us at the same time. In a world that craves consumption, this is jewellery that is exquisitely intricate and detailed, careful and delicate. Jewellery that, ultimately, tells a story. For Sharon, the story starts with how the precious metals and stones she uses were sourced. The stones she uses are conflict- free, and a large portion of the gold she uses was mined using equitable mining practices. The result is a growing body of work that is as conceptually intriguing as it is flawlessly-executed. From the geometrically-chaotic Equilibrium necklace to the opulent 18-karat gold and white diamond Myrrh earrings, Sharon’s collections shimmer with a beauty all her own, and clients can’t look away. Synthesizing ancient wisdom and modern craftsmanship, Sharon is carrying her family’s legacy forward in masterful fashion. The exceptional studio has become synonymous with luxury for the everyday and stands as a shining example of how reverence for history can lead to beautiful new frontiers in the modern age.
