Happy to meet you !
I'm Kaya, a goldsmith and the designer behind KAYA jewelry.
Married to my beloved Roi and mommy to Noga & Tom, creating from my home-studio at Zikhron Yaakov, Israel.
​
I graduate my B.design studies at Shenkar College of Engineering and Design at 2016.
My work explores core values ​​from the design world such as movement, function and proportion.
Each time I dive into a new world of inspiration, collecting details and use them in the designs.
You are all invited to be part of my creative process – take a glimpse into the rich world of thoughts, inspiration and treasures.
Behind the scenes
When you say “handmade”, most people don’t really know what’s behind it.
Even the simplest things are given a new meaning.
Time, technique, emotion ... suddenly you realize how many of them are in a single “piece of metal”.
In the world of jewelry there are lots of different techniques and each one brings with it something unique of its own.
We use a variety of techniques that combine classical and ancient goldsmithing methods alongside the most modern methods of today.
From hammer work to 3D printing - each technique is selected according to the specific piece of jewelry we are working on in order to achieve the best and highest quality result.
Every knock of a hammer or movement of polishing creates a memory and, in the end,
you get a piece of jewelry that is made up of memories - of the way, of the creating process and of hands.
