Yael Dean

After completing a degree in Design studies at London Guildhall University, Yael started working as a Graphic designer. Jewellery has always been her passion and for many years she has collected pieces from many different countries, designers and markets.

She started designing jewellery by making her own necklaces and bracelets using the interesting beads she had collected. For the past two years she has been training at the Hampstead Garden Suburb Institute, developing her understanding of metals and creating pieces using mainly copper and silver, which she combines with semi-precious stones as well as vintage and other unique findings.

Yael lives and works in London but grew up in Israel and Germany and as a result, her designs are influenced by both Middle Eastern and Western styles. Her aim is to create timeless pieces and avoid following mainstream trends.
