Yael Designs Unveils Stunning Collection of Extraordinary Paraiba Tourmaline Jewelry

October 15, 2024

San Francisco, CA - Renowned for its bold use of color and innovative award-winning designs, Yael Designs proudly announces the launch of its latest collection, featuring over 40 exquisite pieces showcasing the rare and vibrant beauty of Paraiba Tourmalines. The collection includes a selection of one-of-a-kind rings and necklaces, meticulously crafted in platinum and 18k gold.

Known for their captivating neon blue and green hues, Paraiba Tourmalines are among the most sought-after gemstones in the world. This new collection by Yael Designs offers collectors and connoisseurs an opportunity to own truly unique pieces featuring hand-selected gems from around the globe.

In a particularly special highlight, one piece in the collection features a Paraiba Tourmaline originating from Nigeria. This rare gem not only captivates with its vivid color but also serves as a fascinating connection to the geological history of our planet. Its discovery in Nigeria supports the Pangaea theory, suggesting that millions of years ago, Africa and South America were once part of a single landmass before drifting apart-explaining the presence of these rare gems on both continents.

"Our Paraiba Tourmaline collection embodies the essence of rarity, beauty, and craftsmanship. We are proud to offer these extraordinary designs that showcase the unique character of each gemstone, allowing our clients to own something truly special," said Yehouda Saketkhou, founder and creative director of Yael Designs.

The collection is now available exclusively through Yael Designs. For more information about the collection or to view these stunning pieces, contact Yael Designs at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
