Silver-Gold Stones

Yemenite jewels bring with them a traditional beauty transmitted for countless generations.

The Yemenite artisan works with total dedication and love on each unique piece, and his inspiration often comes from biblical traditions.  A careful pre-processing underlies the precious metals. Silver granules are prepared from a silver wire cut into small pieces, which are then concealed within ashes in a heating process that results in their round shape. The artisans then prepare the rose-like cluster out of them, consisting of seven granules, the diamond-shaped rhombus made of nine  granules, and the mulberry beads known as "tut" for the choker necklace, among other things.
In Yemen, cadmium was not used for this purpose at all.
Precious and semi-precious stones are made in this peculiar artistic form with its unmistakable and special aesthetics.
