Bangle bracelet: responsibly-sourced sterling silver, aluminium, titanium, 1.62 carat emerald-cut Turkish diaspore (gemstone). 

Path speaks to self-determination, mapping the complex topography of a person’s interior life. This one-of-a-kind sculptural bangle captures the essence of choices made, alternate realities, and the quiet illuminations that define our personal histories.

The core features a band of twice heat-coloured titanium, where iridescent hues and engraved linework reflect the maze-like trajectories of our lived experience. Framed by similarly engraved aluminium and featuring a sterling silver setting positioned prominently in front of the titanium, the piece is a gesture of taking ownership of one’s own life.

Crowning this wearable landscape is a little-known gemstone: an emerald-cut diaspore (also known as zultanite). The gem is claw-set atop a raised silver platform, framed by a delicate twisted wire border. This remarkable stone possesses a rare and natural ability to change colour from this soft mint green to a pastel yellow as it absorbs different wavelengths of light.

Necklace: responsibly sourced sterling silver, heat coloured titanium (hook), 10.41 carat ethically sourced Brazilian lavender quartz (concave octagon-cut), 29.75 carat Brazilian lavender quartz pair (pear-cut), dark freshwater pearl, tumbled rose quartz and chevron amethyst beads.

Feminine power and ancient opulence combined, the Ester necklace is titled after Queen Ester, the Jewish queen of Ancient Persia. Queen Ester (Latinized ‘Esther’) is the main character in the story around which the Jewish festival of Purim is based, and stands as a testament to the civilizational alliance between the people of Israel and the people of Persia (modern-day Iran).

This piece captures a sense of regal history, blending raw, tumbled stones with precision-cut gems. The soft hues of rose and lavender quartz are balanced by the deep, rhythmic patterns of chevron amethyst and the inclusion of a dark freshwater pearl, creating a silhouette that feels both ancient and contemporary.

At its centre, a magnificent 10.41 carat Brazilian lavender quartz is claw-set, its concave octagon-cut designed to catch and amplify light from every angle. This is paired with a striking 29.75 carat duo of pear-cut lavender quartz, creating a layered, sculptural aesthetic worthy of its royal namesake.

Statement Stud Earrings: responsibly sourced sterling silver, anodised titanium, approximately 17 total carat weight turquoise cabochons, cultured freshwater pearls.

The Martina Earrings draw their form from the graceful, rippling petals of the Gilboa Iris, a rare wildflower known for its complex purples and silky texture. Each earring features a hand-shaped titanium petal, anodised into deep tertiary violets that shift with the light. A slender sterling-silver filament carries a baroque freshwater pearl, echoing the iris’s delicate stamen.

Unlike the natural petal, which narrows inward, these titanium forms open outward, creating a sculptural archway that frames the vivid turquoise cabochon above. The turquoise serves as a symbolic crown—a reference to the brilliant skies and living landscape where the Gilboa Iris blooms.

Named for and modelled by Martina, a cherished member of our family, these earrings celebrate both the rare beauty of the flower and the quiet, enduring elegance she embodies.

Dimensions: approximately 7 cm x 3 cm (each)

Cuff bracelet: responsibly sourced and recycled sterling silver, responsibly sourced 9kt yellow gold, responsibly sourced fine silver, carnelian cabochons, marquise cut iolite.

Byzanti is a tribute to the splendour of Byzantium—a handcrafted bracelet that captures the empire’s rich aesthetic through a deep, velvety blue iolite and two radiant carnelian cabochons. These luminous stones are set in a striking blend of responsibly sourced sterling silver and 9kt yellow gold, offering a beautiful interplay of warmth and brilliance.

Inspired by the grandeur of Byzantine artistry, this piece echoes an era where gold and ornamentation carried spiritual weight, and gemstones spoke of power and presence. The inky iolite evokes the mystery of the deepest night, while the glowing carnelians and gold suggest the promise of dawn—together, a quiet homage to nature’s eternal rhythms and timeless beauty.

Bracelet inner diameter: 5.5cm (2.16 inch). This bracelet is made to fit a small size wrist (women) and can be adjusted to a medium size upon request (free of charge).

Brooch: responsibly sourced sterling silver, anodised titanium, pear cut yellow-green tourmaline, stainless steel double pin.

Key is a shallow relief profile bust of a symbolic man. The form was constructed by chasing and repousse (using various shaped tools to hammer the surface of the metal from both above and below) from a 0.8mm sheet of titanium. The resulting sculpture was anodised into iridescent purple, copper, and blue hues, the dominant colour varying depending on angle of viewing and lighting conditions. Anchoring the profile is a yellow-green elongated pear cut tourmaline, which adds charge, tension, and contrast to the already sensual form of the figure, set in silver. At the base of the profile, the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, א (aleph) is stamped and engraved back into the raw titanium.

The brooch cites the threshold of new beginnings, the ambivalent fear and attraction that attend fundamental change, and the embodied sensations that anticipate a coming touch.

Brooch dimensions: (H) 10.5cm x (W) 6cm.

Please note: this brooch is affixed with a vertical, 0.9mm stainless streel double pin, suitable for most fabrics.

Brooch: responsibly sourced 9 karat yellow gold, responsibly sourced sterling silver, heat coloured titanium, Brazilian heliodor (yellow beryl).

While wheat holds great cultural significance for many ancient civilisations, as well as modern empires and nation-states, this life-sustaining plant is native to the Middle East and is nowhere more deeply woven into the fabric of peoplehood than in this region. For Jews, it is difficult to overstate the fundamental role wheat has played in our formation as a people.

Wheat appears in the Torah (the original and foundational version of the Bible) from the very beginning, featuring in the book of Bereshit (Genesis) in the stories of Adam and Chava (Eve) and Yosef (Joseph). It is also one of the Seven Species (Shivat Ha’Minim)—a group of plants mentioned in Dvarim (Deuteronomy) as divine blessings of the Land of Israel. Alongside figs, barley, grapes, pomegranates, olives, and dates, wheat was a staple of the ancient Israelite diet and played a central role in daily life and religious rituals—an importance that continues to this day.

In Judaism, wheat is far more than just a food source—it is a symbol of sustenance, wisdom, divine blessing, and spiritual refinement, deeply intertwined with Jewish history, law, and mysticism.

Dimensions: 9.5 × 13.5cm (approximately 3.74 × 5.31 inches).

*Please note that the titanium pin that fastens this brooch is 1.5mm thick and therefore works best on looser woven fabrics.

Cuff Bracelet: responsibly sourced sterling silver, patinated copper (varnished), ethically sourced 6.37ct Brazilian lemon quartz (concave cushion-cut).

Path to Alon is a one-of-a-kind cuff bracelet inspired by the Arava Desert landscape that stretches between the Dead Sea, the lowest land elevation on Earth, and the Red Sea to the south. This desert runs along the Jordan Rift Valley that separates the African and Arabian tectonic plates. Growing up in this place, Path to Alon recalls the colourful rocky ridges that flank the narrow rift valley on both sides, the dried riverbeds that occasionally flood powerfully, and the unspeakable beauty of this part of the world.

The engraving and richly coloured patina of the bracelet’s copper body has been varnished to prevent the colour from changing and exposure to the skin. A thick outline of sterling silver solidifies the structure of the cuff and lends it light, while the stunning concave cut lemon quartz rises like a crown above the main body of the bracelet.

This piece was selected for artisan Collects (2022), a collaborative initiative between Malki Studio and artisan Gallery that invited collectors to explore jewellery as an art form. For more information, please click here.

Made to fit a medium to large sized wrist (reasonably adjustable).

Ring: responsibly sourced 18kt yellow gold, responsibly sourced sterling silver, responsibly sourced fine silver, heat coloured titanium, ruby, cultured freshwater pearl.

A tribute to the splendour of Byzantium, Byzanti is a handcrafted ring featuring a beautiful pinkish-red ruby, a cultured freshwater pearl, and heat coloured titanium. These luminous elements are set against a blend of 18kt yellow gold with responsibly sourced sterling silver, creating a harmonious contrast of warmth and brilliance.

Drawing from Byzantine artistry, this piece embodies the empire’s opulence—where gold flowed like sunlight, pearls symbolised purity and prestige, and richly coloured gemstones conveyed power. The ruby’s deep pinkish-red accentuates the ring’s historic ties to wealth and devotion.

Ring size: N (6 3/4). See our Sizing Guide.

Statement Stud Earrings: responsibly sourced sterling silver.

The Ionic earrings are part of the Ancient Tomorrow Collection that seeks to merge the past, present, and future while investigating the physical and metaphysical essence of jewellery. It makes use of jewellery’s ability to negotiate meaning, record history, act as a mediator and become an object of deep emotional investment.

Ancient Tomorrow pieces are inspired by ancient cultures, architecture, history and heritage. The Ionic earrings’ design has been influenced by Ancient Greek Ionic columns which feature spiral, scroll-like ornaments at their capital.

These earrings come with extra large (9mm diameter) flower butterfly earring backs dedicated to support larger earrings.

The Ionic earrings were featured in Precious Aid, a charity auction benefiting IsraAid and Magen David Adom in the wake of the October 7th massacres in Israel in 2023. The auction was facilitated by Farber Auction House in New Jersey, USA.

Dimensions: 4.3 cm x 2.3 cm x 0.4 cm (excluding the stud post)

Brooch: responsibly sourced sterling silver, heat coloured titanium, ethically sourced 4.46 carat white topaz from Mount Surprise, Queensland.

The fig tree is one of the first plants mentioned in Bereshit (Genesis) in the Torah, when its leaves were used by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to clothe themselves immediately after eating of the Tree of Knowledge (suggesting that perhaps the Tree of Knowledge was a fig tree). Fig trees are also one of the Seven Species—a group of edible plants mentioned in the book of Dvarim as natural endowments of the land of Israel. Alongside wheat, barley, grapes, pomegranates, olives, and dates, the fig was considered by the Ancient Jewish Kingdoms and the Israelites as staples of their diet. The first fruits of the Seven Species were also used as offerings traditionally given to the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem by worshippers—the wood of the fig tree serving as fuel for the Temple’s Eternal Flame. In the Ancient Jewish holiday of Tu Be’Shvat, also known as the New Year for Trees, dried figs are traditionally eaten as part of the celebration.

These are but some of the significances of the fig tree to the Jewish people. That the native species of the Levant are so enmeshed within the foundation of Jews as an ethnoreligious group speaks strongly to our connection to the land of Israel. This brooch is an homage to that connection.

Eden was exhibited as part of the Intimate Worlds exhibition at NorthSite Contemporary Arts in Cairns. Occurring between August and October in 2024, the exhibition “is about celebrating materiality and process. The artists featured in ‘Intimate Worlds’ have a profound respect for their materials, and their work reflects a deep curiosity and dedication to their craft.”

Torque Necklace: responsibly sourced sterling silver, malachite, amethyst, cultured freshwater pearl, and concave cut fluorite.

The Adamantine torque is inspired by The Dying Gaul, a Roman marble copy of a Hellenistic work of the late 3rd Century BCE, in which a wounded warrior is collapsed on the floor, nude except for a thick twisted torque about his neck. The marble statue was made as much in celebration of the Roman military victory over the Gaul people as in their honour as worthy adversaries. Gaul warriors were regarded as fierce fighters who expressed their people’s defiance of the Roman Empire by fighting unclothed. The exposed, vulnerable bodies of Gaul warriors were thus not symbols of weakness but evidence of their confident, unbreakable spirit.

The Adamantine torque, cuff and earrings were featured in an empowering jewellery showcasefor International Women’s Day (2022), the theme of which was Break the Bias.These pieces break social bias by positioning vulnerability as a demonstration of strength rather than weakness. This piece was also selected for artisan Collects (2022), a collaborative initiative between Malki Studio and artisan Gallery that invited collectors to explore jewellery as an art form.

Brooch: responsibly sourced 18 karat gold, responsibly sourced sterling silver, heat coloured titanium, responsibly sourced fine silver, ethically sourced 2.4 carat London blue topaz from Brazil.

The Nova brooch was made in response to the October 7th massacres that occurred in Israel, in particular the Nova Music Festival. Nova takes the form of a flower, a purple variant of the poppy anemone which is native to the Mediterranean region which includes Israel. The poppy anemone is Israel’s favourite flower, the red variant being Israel’s national flower. Following the massacre at the Nova Music Festival, the Israeli community has created individual memorials for those who were murdered, including planting flowers that honour the dead. Not surprisingly, a favourite among these has been the poppy anemone, or Kalanit (in Hebrew).

Malki Studio has created this brooch to express the ongoing grief of Jewish and Israeli people, and offer it as a solemn example of our people’s deep connection to our land, culture, history, religion, and each other.

Nova was exhibited as part of the Intimate Worlds exhibition at NorthSite Contemporary Arts in Cairns.

Ring: responsibly sourced and recycled sterling silver, 0.8 carat pink tourmaline.

This Renaissance-inspired ring centres on the idea of sweetness as an outward projection of hope and resilience. Here, sweetness is rooted in the sugary pink hue of the tourmaline gemstone, which crowns the architectural, temple-like structure of the setting. Associated with compassion, healing, and self-love, pink tourmaline symbolises a vital, reverent, and deeply desirable softness—a kind of vulnerability. As a gesture of elevation and respect, the structural silverwork clings to the stone’s sweetness with outstretched arms—the claws—holding it close, protecting it from corruption.

Size: N (US size 6). See our Sizing Guide.

*Please note that this size is approximate due to the flat inner profile of the ring.

Ring: responsibly sourced sterling silver.

This unique ring is part of our Ancient Tomorrow Collection. It combines ancient and contemporary aesthetics through the fusion of ornate silver casting and minimalist fabrication techniques.

Fibula (Brooch/Pin): responsibly sourced and recycled sterling silver, lapis lazuli, cultured freshwater pearls.

Fibulae are brooches or pins that were developed in the late Bronze Age (approximately 1200BCE) as a way of fastening clothes. Although they have largely been replaced by inventions such as buttons, zippers, and Velcro, fibulae are beautiful objects that can look as contemporary today as they did a few thousand years ago. This fibula is a relatively paired back example of the types of fibulae often seen in North African cultures, and features a stunningly blue lapis lazuli cabochon and richly coloured cultured freshwater pearls set with responsibly sourced and recycled sterling silver.

This piece was selected for artisan Collects (2022), a collaborative initiative between Malki Studio and artisan Gallery that invited collectors to explore jewellery as an art form. For more information, please click here.

Dimension: 2.8cm x 6cm x 0.9cm.

Brooch and fibula: responsibly sourced sterling silver, heat coloured titanium, emerald cut 12.78 carat Bolivian amethyst, carnelian cabochon, acrylic paint on linen, varnish, sterling silver chain.

Karti is essentially composed of two pins which are attached through a chain. Its name is a reference to one of the prayers and symbols of the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashana), which represents divine protection from the malevolent forces that threaten the Jewish people.

Karti was made in the immediate aftermath of the October 7 massacres in Israel, and speaks especially of the strength of Jewish women.

Its design cites the traditional jewellery produced and worn by Jews in North Africa prior to our ethnic cleansing in the middle of the 20th Century. Traditionally, Jewish women would have worn two fibula brooches—one on each shoulder—which fastened garments. A chain traditionally connected between the brooches and suspended beads or other ornaments with various symbolic meanings.

In Karti, the fibula takes the form of an inverted Menorah, an ancient symbol of Jewish continuity, set with a carnelian cabochon, carnelian being a traditional material used throughout the Middle East and North Africa. Meanwhile, the titanium and silver brooch is shaped like an oversized olive leaf, representing the Jewish connection to the land of Israel as well as peace. The Bolivian amethyst on this brooch was set upside down, enabling the pavilion facets to fracture and multiply the miniature portrait (painted by hand using acrylic paint on linen) that is set behind the gem. The portrait allegorically depicts Jewish women, with facial features drawn from multiple images of female members of our family as well as Anne Frank and Golda Meir.

Karti was exhibited as part of the Intimate Worlds exhibition at NorthSite Contemporary Arts in Cairns. Occurring between August and October in 2024, the exhibition “is about celebrating materiality and process. The artists featured in ‘Intimate Worlds’ have a profound respect for their materials, and their work reflects a deep curiosity and dedication to their craft.” The work was similarly exhibited as a response exhibition to the Phantom superhero comic in 2023 in the Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery as part of the Phantom Response exhibition.

Adam also published a magazine article which included text and images of his work, including Karti, in Yad Mizrah Magazine. Click here to view the article.

Olive leaf brooch: 18cm x 6cm.
