This is a story about close friendship and a love of art and design. It begins when we met at the age of 14 in the arts high school where we both studied sculpture,
ceramics, drawing and design.
At the age of 21 we packed our bags and traveled together through Europe.
We started in colorful Amsterdam, where we used to sell paintings in the
streets. Passers by who saw the charming drawings were touched and bought them.
After a while we moved to Spain, where in a majestic valley we built a
ceramics studio
in nature. We built the primitive stoves from wood and from an old washing
machine. We created our first jewels from local stones that we found
in nature. People loved our work, and we started selling to art galleries
in Europe.
Today, we spend all the time we can at our studio and enjoy every minute of it.
We dedicate ourselves to our creativity and skills. We have developed
techniques that resonate powerfully through our contemporary jewelry
designs, with the craftsmanship and detail of old Yemeni and Middle
Eastern cultures, creating a distinct look for each piece of jewelry.
By working with sterling silver, gold and gemstones we create an unconventional mixture of contemporary and ethnic designs. The use of intricate filigree
work in our designs demonstrates the impact of different cultures of our
work.
Our designs the Oded & Ilan Collection were displayed for many years in the Museum of Modern Art in New York. We are presenting in the most important
jewelry shows in the world and sell in Australia, the Middle East,
Japan, the USA, Canada and elsewhere. In order to learn more about us you

Selling online and through eBay is our new baby project.
For this purpose we opened a marketing office in Montréal, Canada. We love the idea
of selling directly to art lovers and people that like our work from
all over the world.
We will be more than happy to read your comments about our designs by e-mail. |
